Need some help navigating the heritage planning maze?
Jo Guard Heritage can help.
Formulating modifications to a heritage property can be complex. Navigating the regulatory landscape requires expert guidance, and I am here to assist you at every stage of the process.
As an independent consultant, I have more than 30 years of extensive heritage advisory and consultancy experience across Australia and the United Kingdom.
