The experienced team at IQ appoints and manages all the contractors and trades required to optimise the performance of our building including plumbing, heating, air conditioning, access control, and CCTV. This keeps it running at peak efficiency and compliant with all work place legislation and Health and Safety requirements, leaving us free to get on with running our business knowing that a detailed programme of planned regular maintenance is in hand. And should a problem arise we call the team at IQ who prioritise and escalate our problem, always putting our interests first.

“IQ Consultants worked with us to Project Manage and oversee the full refurbishment and rebuild of our house back in 2010 and since that time have continued to support us with ongoing maintenance as we needed it. We have always found their service to be of the highest and promptest quality.

IQ Service & Maintenance have now taken over these services on a planned basis and it continues to be very enjoyable to work with them. Toby has been excellent sorting out some lighting upgrades. I always know that I can call Tony and his team and they will respond quickly and prioritise my work. The standard of their service and commitment really does set them apart from other service providers”.

Tony Cheeseman’s analytical approach literally saved the day

We first consulted with Tony when our residential development project had reached a critical point with issues of costing, timing and quality of finish.

The potential financial implications were looking serious and the situation was becoming very stressful impacting on our daily lives and our health.

A mutual contact introduced us to Tony and we quickly realised we had met the project manager that we should have engaged from the onset of our project.

His skills as a PM extended way beyond daily construction management of running a build as he has a great depth of knowledge of construction contract law accumulated over numerous years of project management.

Ours was a problem mainly relating to the way the original contracts had been drawn up. Tony’s attention to detail and analytical approach to our problems at hand led him to question the legality of the contract. He worked closely with our legal adviser on our contractual issue resulting in the termination of our original contract and him putting in place a new contractor to complete our project.

Tony and his team’s ability keeps projects moving along with his project management skills and attention to detail in getting the project finished and the end results you expected.

Having him and his team in at pre-contract stage is however vital and something I regret not doing.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Tony and his team at IQ Consultants to anybody about to embark on a substantial residential refurbishment or new build.

I have worked with Tony in various guises for over 30 years from his engineering contracting days through to his current project management consultancy.

The fact that we are still working together should speak volumes for my opinion of him. I have always been deeply impressed by his forward thinking and positive attitude from his own technical and educational development to his ability to organise, co-ordinate and manage quite complex construction projects.

He is very much a “hands on” project manager. He is deeply involved in every aspect of the project and, with his breadth of practical experience and knowledge backed up by his dedicated team, he provides a high level of service and adds significant value to the whole development process.

I have no hesitation in recommending Tony to project manage projects for our clients.

“We have worked with Tony Cheeseman and IQ Consultants for a number of years, both as a client and as a supplier and found their service invaluable.

The clarity they bring to complicated projects is extremely helpful and they simply help things run more smoothly. Misunderstandings and unrealistic expectations always cause the most tension in complicated projects so IQ Consultants ability to reduce these means their service pays for itself.

Tony and his team are friendly and helpful and we regularly recommend them to our clients”.
SCOTT NICHOLSON, CHAMBER FURNITURE, KENT
“Professional, proactive, efficient and extremely knowledgeable are just a few words I would use to describe Tony and his team.

At all times during the 9 months refurbishment of our house we were able to consult Tony and discuss the works that were taking place. Undertaking such a huge project meant endless questions, decisions, meeting and paperwork all of which Tony was able to guide and advise us about.

From scheduling and planning to managing the site we were always confident that our best interests were being considered.

Tony has a wealth of knowledge and the ability to get things done using the right people for the job. When I would have said “Thats ok, it will do” Tony did not – precision and accuracy were always paramount.

Without hesitation I would recommend Tony and his team – you will not be disappointed.”

“IQ Service & Maintenance have been providing maintenance and other services to the Advent Centre for over 15 years. I have always found their service to be responsive and reliable, from the moment a call is placed through to completion. This helps to ensure that the efficient running of the Advent Centre is not affected in anyway. One of the joys of working with IQ is that they provide a personable yet professional service including visits from the Managing Director Tony Cheeseman to ensure that a high standard of customer service is being maintained, which makes me feel that I am receiving a special and personal service. I would be happy to recommend IQ Service & Maintenance based on the years of service that I have received from them.”

“We appointed Tony to act as our Client Representative for a substantial Pool House, Gym and Garage project at our period house in a village just outside Sevenoaks. We had originally engaged the architects who had designed the building but we gave the project management role to Tony when it became obvious that things were not going to plan. Tony picked up the intricacies of the scheme very quickly and his attention to detail and ability to monitor and manage a complex, multi-contractor project bought it back on track and on budget. We would have no hesitation recommending Tony’s services to others
MR & MRS R, SEVENOAKS
Tony project managed the planning permission and building of a 6500 square feet new build house which completed in 2008. He remained calm, organised and efficient from start to finish. The build came in on time and under budget. We have since recommended Tony to at least 4 other people.
MR AND MRS B, SEVENOAKS
We have over the last year undertaken a total refurbishment/extension of our house. We were introduced to Tony at IQ when we were first looking at the project, and I can honestly say the best decision we made was to appoint him as our Project Manager. I just don’t know what I would have done without him.

Tony is calm when I would be tearing my hair out, he is firm but fair when dealing with all involved in the project and, most importantly, he gets things done. The attention to detail from Tony is amazing, during meetings he juggles so many things with ease, ably assisted by Julie who keeps us all in check during our meetings and never misses anything that is said. He has amazing contacts and we have been delighted with everyone he has brought into the project. He has very high standards and that is evident from the work we have had done and the contractors he has introduced us to.

We are coming to the end of our project and I want to do another one so that I can work with them again as I am going to miss them! Having heard many horror stories about such projects, I thoroughly enjoyed ours, due in no small part to Tony and Julie and the rest of the team at IQ. Thank you for delivering to us a lovely “new” property. I would have no hesitation in recommending Tony and Julie and the team if you are thinking of undertaking a project.

Thank you Tony and Julie, it was a blast!!

“Tony Cheeseman project managed the refurbishment and the addition of 2 storeys to a Victorian building in a busy part of Borough High Street. The project required careful logistical organisation.

He dealt calmly with the main contractor and resolved all the issues, both known and unknown, that a project of this size involves. His knowledge of utility supply scheduling was especially helpful in this project”.
