Though considerable improvements have been made in the last few years, RBG Kew currently has a significant defect liability that requires action. The extent of the backlog and a method of identifying the most urgent works was drawn-up in 2018 via the completion of a site wide elemental condition survey and risk assessment. This piece of work of has been built-on and aligned with RBG Kew's Sustainability and Energy Plans, which are targeting a carbon positive estate by 2030, to create a new five-year programme of work across the two estates.
This programme consists of infrastructure improvement, refurbishment, and conservation projects. Though not all the projects within the programme relate to listed or protected assets, conservation knowledge and design experience is required to ensure the projects are developed in a sensitive way, respectful of RBG Kew's status as a world Heritage Site.
Example projects include (note these are example projects and there is no guarantee they will be taken forward):
Conservation of the Ruined Arch.
Refurbishment and Conservation of the Orangery.
Rationalisation of the Brentford Gate Car Park and Improvement of Visitor Arrival.
Design and Implementation of a Sustainable Irrigation System.
Conservation of the Minka House and Japanese Gateway.
Refurbishment and Development of Residential Properties.
Various Re-roofing projects across the Estates.
Quantity Surveying Services are now required to help develop, design and deliver projects within the programme.
