Frequently Asked Questions.
What does Arcoveya do?+
Arcoveya is a UK-based architectural market development consultancy focused on the building envelope. We operate two divisions: Arcoveya Advisory, covering international market entry, specification strategy and commercial intelligence, and Arcoveya Takeoff, a specialist façade measurement and estimating service.
Who does Arcoveya work with?+
Our primary audience is international construction-product manufacturers seeking to enter or expand within the UK market. We also explore relevant opportunities involving technical specialists, contractors and other industry organisations.
Does Arcoveya distribute or manufacture products?+
Arcoveya’s core proposition is independent consultancy and market development. Any distribution, agency or representation arrangements would be considered separately and defined contractually.
Can Arcoveya help us establish a UK specification strategy?+
Yes. We develop tailored approaches to specification engagement, market positioning and relevant industry relationships.
Do you provide regulatory certification?+
No. Arcoveya can help identify relevant technical considerations and coordinate appropriate specialist input, but formal certification and regulated professional services remain the responsibility of suitably qualified organisations.
Can Arcoveya support manufacturers without a UK office?+
Yes. Our services support international manufacturers evaluating or developing their UK commercial presence.
Do you offer ongoing consultancy support?+
Ongoing advisory and market-development arrangements can be considered according to the client’s objectives and agreed scope.
How are your services priced?+
Services are priced according to the agreed scope, complexity, deliverables and duration of each engagement. We provide tailored commercial proposals following an initial discussion.
What is Arcoveya Takeoff?+
Arcoveya Takeoff is our specialist façade measurement and estimating service. Contractors and fabricators can commission pay-per-project takeoffs, set up a monthly takeoff partnership or use our digital takeoff solutions.
What do takeoff outputs include?+
Outputs are scoped to each project and typically include façade areas and material quantities, structured material schedules, drawing and revision references, highlighted assumptions and Excel and PDF reporting.
Who is Arcoveya Takeoff for?+
Arcoveya Takeoff is a specialist façade measurement and estimating service for contractors, fabricators and building-envelope specialists.
What is the difference between pay-per-project takeoffs and monthly takeoff partnerships?+
Pay-per-project takeoffs provide dedicated measurement support for individual projects, helping you manage tender workloads without increasing permanent overheads. Monthly takeoff partnerships provide structured estimating support for businesses managing regular tender opportunities, with greater cost predictability and agreed measurement capacity.
Which façade systems does Arcoveya Takeoff measure?+
We measure rainscreen cladding systems; fibre-cement, metal, ceramic and terracotta façades; curtain walling and glazing; façade substructures and fixings; and insulation and through-wall build-ups.
How do we begin?+
Contact Arcoveya with a brief outline of your products, market objectives and requirements. We can then discuss whether a market assessment or another defined engagement would be appropriate.
