Wilkinson Cowan launch new website

Client Overview

Founded in 1980 by Malcolm Wilkinson and John Cowan, Wilkinson Cowan Partnership (WCP) is an independent property and construction consultancy delivering bespoke professional building consultancy services across the North and Midlands.

Over the past four decades, WCP has evolved from a traditional quantity surveying practice into a multi-disciplinary consultancy. Their services now span quantity surveying, project management, building surveying, employer’s agent, clerk of works, principal designer, CDM and health & safety, cost management, project monitoring, procurement advice, access consultancy, and expert witness services.

With a reputation for delivering successful outcomes across both public and private sectors, WCP works with clients, always with a focus on quality, compliance, and value for money.

The Challenge

While WCP’s portfolio and expertise had grown significantly, their online presence no longer reflected the scale of their services. They needed a modern, professional website that clearly communicated their capabilities, showcased their diverse projects, and reflected their position as a trusted, experienced partner in the construction industry.

The new site needed to:

• Present WCP’s wide range of services in a clear, accessible format.

• Highlight their experience, projects, and team.

• Integrate case studies and project news.

• Provide simple contact pathways for prospective clients.

• Ensure the site was fully mobile-optimised and met accessibility standards.

Our Approach

Home Marketing worked closely with WCP to capture their story from their origins in 1980 to their position today as a leading building consultancy. The design brief focused on combining a clean, corporate look with clear navigation so potential clients could quickly identify the services they needed.

Key priorities included:

• Creating a fresh homepage design in line with WCP’s new branding.

• Rewriting all website content in a softer yet professional tone to enhance clarity and engagement.

• Restructuring the site architecture to provide a smoother, more intuitive user journey.

• Capturing new photography to showcase WCP’s projects and team.

• Updating team bios and headshots to reflect their expertise and personality.

• Integrating accessibility features to meet guidelines and ensure inclusivity.

• Optimising for mobile and responsiveness across all devices.

  
  

The Result

The new Wilkinson Cowan Partnership website now provides a polished, professional platform that reflects the depth of their expertise. It’s easier for prospective clients to understand their service offering, explore past projects, and make informed contact.

WCP can now share insights, industry updates, and thought leadership, strengthening their position as a trusted consultancy partner in the property and construction sectors.
