Commitment to Flexible Support

Our team is available seven days a week, ensuring that clients have access to expert guidance whenever it is required. Importantly, this extended availability is offered as part of our standard service, with no additional charges for out-of-hours support.

Building Trust Through Client Relationships

We take great pride in the fact that we do not rely on advertising to attract new business. Instead, over 90% of our work comes from client satisfaction, leading to referrals and repeat commissions. Our reputation for delivering quality results has established strong relationships with architects, builders, and previous clients, who repeatedly choose our services for their heritage planning needs.

Geographic Focus and Specialisation

While we undertake projects across England and Wales, our primary area of expertise lies within Somerset and its surrounding counties. This regional focus has enabled us to develop a deep understanding of local heritage issues and planning requirements, positioning us as specialists in heritage planning within this geographic area..

Chartered Institute for  Archaeologists

All staff members at AS Archaeology and Heritage Services are required to hold membership with the  Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA) at a level appropriate to their skills. Furthermore, every project is overseen by a fully accredited Member (MCIfA) of the Institute, ensuring adherence to the highest professional standards. As a company managed by a MCIfA post-holder, we are bound by the CIfA Code of Conduct, reinforcing our commitment to ethical practice.
