Who we are

Our approach combines deep technical knowledge with hands-on commercial advisory, delivered by a compact, director-led team.

Atlas is privately owned and was founded by Lee Davison to offer a more accessible and focused service than larger corporate practices. A high proportion of our work is repeat business.

This structure enables us to maintain close client relationships and to provide a level of personal service and responsiveness often absent from larger corporate practices, while still competing effectively on high-value projects.

Our value proposition lies in coupling technical rigour with commercial pragmatism: we assess not only how a building functions physically, but also how it performs and succeeds as an asset. This dual focus allows clients, whether private individuals, niche practices or global property firms, to make well-informed investment, development or management decisions.

Atlas Building Consultants is headquartered in London, with coverage across the UK and internationally. We deliver client-focused, high-quality building consultancy tailored to the scale, complexity and ambition of each project.

What we stand for

Values present
on day one

  1. 01

    Heritage

    Founded in 2013 to provide client-focused consultancy, Atlas has grown into a multi-disciplinary practice delivering complex instructions in the UK and overseas without compromising its original values.

  2. 02

    Exceptional Experience

    Unwavering commitment from the outset. We search for the optimal solution, aim to exceed expectations and build relationships that last.

  3. 03

    Passion

    We are inquisitive about the built environment and take a rigorous, analytical approach to how buildings perform, where risk lies and how value is protected or enhanced.

  4. 04

    Responsibility

    Technical expertise underpinned by quality, health and safety and environmental care. Continuing training keeps the team at the forefront of current technology and practice.

  5. 05

    Genuine Service

    Straightforward, honest expert advice without unnecessary jargon. We are committed to the brief, the programme and the cost plan, and design responsibly at all times.

  6. 06

    Connection

    Our designers are technically sound and attentive to the architectural quality of a property, particularly where services must be discreet or specialist lighting enhances a space.

The team

A senior team
on every instruction

Each instruction is set up and led by a director, who defines the scope, resources the team and remains accountable for progress through to completion. Our senior staff have backgrounds in both design and construction, and a working interest in architecture and the environment.
