Project consultation
Discuss the project, review the starting information and identify the drawings, measurements and decisions needed to move forward.

A practical design conversationTurn project questions
Turn project questions
into a clear brief.
A sketch, a material schedule or an unresolved connection detail can be the start of a useful conversation. Masonry Metals helps bring that information together.
Our consultation service connects the application, drawings, material choices and quantities. We help identify what is already defined, what needs further review and how the next stage of the project should be approached.
Alongside the conversation, our own branded Project Studio gives you practical tools to explore dimensions, material weight and cutting quantities before you enquire.

Support for real project questionsFrom a first sketch
From a first sketch
to a defined requirement.
Whether you are planning a new detail, coordinating existing drawings or organising a material schedule, the starting point is the same: understand the project.
Bring the application, the dimensions you know and the constraints you are working within. A consultation can help organise the design conversation and the information needed for the next stage.
For material supply and bespoke components, we also keep the specification, finish and delivery requirements connected to the brief.
Our consultation workflowUnderstand the question.
Understand the question.
Define the next step.
A focused consultation begins with your project information and ends with a clear scope for what should happen next.
Bring the context.
Share the project, the application, current drawings and the question you need to resolve. Tell us what is confirmed and what is still being explored.
Review the detail.
Work through the dimensions, material assumptions and planning metrics. Use the Studio to support the discussion and make the starting information clearer.
Agree the scope.
Define the drawing support, information review or material enquiry needed next. Confirm the deliverables and any specialist design input required for the project.
The scope, fees, deliverables and programme are agreed for your individual consultation.

You do not need a finished specification before getting in touch. A clear starting point makes the consultation more useful.
Gather drawings, sketches or dimensions, a description of the application and any material requirements already defined. Add the quantity, programme and the questions you want to discuss.

Read about the serviceCan I begin with an idea or a rough sketch?
Yes. Explain what you are trying to achieve, add the dimensions you already know and identify the details that are still indicative. We can then discuss what information is needed to define the consultation.
What can I do in Project Studio?
Estimate material mass, plan repeated straight cuts, convert dimensions and create a simple four-hole plate concept. Download the outputs or transfer a planning summary into an enquiry.
How does CAD support fit into a consultation?
Begin with the application and the drawing information you have. We can discuss concept preparation, dimensional clarity and drawing coordination, then agree the scope and the files or deliverables required.
Are the online tools suitable for a final project design?
The Studio provides initial geometry and planning estimates. Final material grades, tolerances, fixing arrangements and performance requirements need to be reviewed through the project’s design and manufacturing specification.
How do I arrange a consultation?
Use the project enquiry form or email enquiries@masonrymetals.com. Include your project reference, the area you want to discuss and any current drawings. The consultation scope, fees and programme are confirmed for the individual project.
