Building Surveys
All building materials have a life expectancy and in order to maintain buildings and ensure they comply with current statutory and legal legislation, we are able to advise you of your responsibilities and how to best maintain your property on a planned programmed basis. We will carry out the required surveys / audits and provide you with recommendations to be addressed as immediate actions or over 5, 10 or 15 year period along with compiling the required information to be submitted for planning permission and building regulations.
Building Condition Survey
We are experts at building condition surveys. A Building Survey is an inspection of a property and a report describing the condition and state of repair including a detailed analysis of any defects. Our Surveyors will always discuss your needs in advance to ensure they deliver the service you need. The report will be tailored to deliver your specific requirements and includes technical advice on problems, including recommendations on remedial work or future maintenance.

All building elements have a life expectancy and need to be maintained. As an outcome of the building surveying process, we are able to provide you with a maintenance plans and schedules giving you the information you need to manage your building effectively. Typically over a 5 or 10 year programme of work, this proactive management of your business asset reduces the disruption that unexpected repairs and costs have on your business and keeps your building in good condition.
Acquisition Survey / Technical Due Diligence
If you are a purchaser or an Investor we are able to carry a pre-acquisition survey, which includes all the elements of a condition survey, but performed prior to the purchase of a building or entering into a lease agreement.
In addition to the exercises performed as part of a condition survey, the pre-acquisition survey may also include an environmental audit and the workmanship of any recent refurbishments or alterations should be checked. The outcome of the acquisition survey will help you decide whether or not to go ahead with a purchase/ lease or may influence negotiations regarding price.
The whole maintenance and life cycle replacement programme will depend upon, and should be designed around, the results of this survey, so the facilities manager should be involved from the outset to ensure that the programmes are compiled at the earliest possible date.
We are also able to carry out the similar service if you are a vendor who is intending to dispose of a building and requires and survey / report as part of a sellers back or to pre warn potential purchasers and investors of the condition and state of the building.
