Session lengths vary by specialist. Architect, Structural Engineer, Project Manager, Feasibility and Investment Analyst, and Permit and Compliance Specialist sessions are 60 minutes. Interior Designer, Electrical Engineer, Mechanical Engineer, and Sustainability Consultant sessions are 45 minutes and can be extended to 60 minutes. The duration is shown clearly next to each specialist on this page.
Yes — and the more you prepare, the more you will get out of the call. We recommend having any relevant drawings, site photos, contractor quotes, BOQs, or planning documents available to share. A clear list of your top questions is equally important. Our specialist will review your intake form before the call so they arrive informed, but strong preparation on your end makes the session significantly more productive.
A consultation is designed to give you expert direction on a specific challenge — it is not a substitute for a full design, engineering, or construction management engagement. That said, many clients use consultations as a valuable first step to clarify their project scope, challenge a contractor's advice, or validate a decision before committing to a full engagement.
Here is a quick guide to help you decide:
Â
   - Building a home or commercial space? → Architect
   - Concerned about your structure or foundation? → Structural Engineer
   - Planning electrical systems or solar? → Electrical Engineer
   - Need HVAC or plumbing advice? → Mechanical Engineer
   - Redesigning an interior space? → Interior Designer
   - Managing contractors or costs? → Project Manager
   - Assessing a property investment? → Feasibility and Investment Analyst
   - Navigating permits and approvals? → Permit and Compliance Specialist
   - Building sustainably or going green? → Sustainability Consultant
Yes. Our virtual consultations are available to clients worldwide. We regularly work with clients across East Africa — including Uganda, Tanzania, and Rwanda — as well as diaspora clients based in the UK, US, Canada, and UAE who are investing in property back in the region. Permit and compliance sessions are most applicable to Kenya and East Africa, while all other specialist sessions apply globally.
Cancellations made more than 48 hours before your scheduled session qualify for a full refund. Cancellations made within 48 hours of the session are non-refundable but may be rescheduled once at no additional charge. No-shows without prior notice are non-refundable. To cancel or reschedule, contact us by email/whatsapp/phone as early as possible.
Yes. All information shared during your session — including project details, financial figures, drawings, and documents — is treated with strict confidentiality. We do not share client information with third parties. If required, we are happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) prior to your session.
A specialist virtual consultation is a paid, one-on-one session with a qualified member of our team. You choose the expert you need — from an architect or structural engineer to a feasibility analyst or permit specialist — and use the session to get focused, professional guidance on your specific project challenge. Sessions are held via Google Meet or Zoom.
Fill out the intake form on this page, select your preferred specialist and date, then click the Pay button next to your chosen specialist to complete payment via PayPal. Once we receive both your form submission and your payment, we will confirm your time slot and send your meeting link within 24 hours.
Yes. Many projects require input from multiple disciplines. A residential developer may benefit from separate sessions with an architect, a structural engineer, and a feasibility analyst, for example. Each session is booked and paid for independently. If you plan to book multiple sessions, mention this in your intake form and we will sequence them in the most logical order for your project.
