Chartered surveyors Primmer Olds LLP, has merged with BAS Property Consultants Ltd to form Primmer Olds B.A.S.
The merger of the two Southampton firms is the culmination of four years working collaboratively on client projects.
The new business, which will have a staff of 15, will be led equally by Primmer Olds partners, Duane Walker and Robert Primmer and BAS director Bradley Smith.
Each will continue their respective roles leading the three core areas of work; agency, professional services and building consultancy.
The business has invested heavily in its new shared identity, website, combined team and IT.
Staff from BAS have moved from their Cumberland Place office to Primmer Old’s premises round the corner in Cromwell Road.
Duane Walker commented: “The two firms combined with different skills but same client focused approach will have a massively positive effect on what we can achieve for our clients going forward.”
Robert Primmer added: “Going forward the addition of a strong building consultancy team will broaden the scope of work we already undertake.”
Bradley Smith said: “It is very exciting times for our team here and all of our clients and I truly believe this puts us in a great position to offer both existing and new clients a true one stop multi-disciplined service for all of their property and portfolio needs.”
The company’s main areas of work include: commercial agency, investment, development, valuation, building surveying, project management, architecture and design, lease advisory, business rates, property management, cost consultancy, health and safety, residential survey and valuation.
