Key to our success is being able to provide our clients with innovative products and services. As part of this, we are always looking at new ideas and services to ensure we can offer the best service possible. Key services we have developed include:

Key services we offer are as follows:

  • Asset Management Surveys – Traditionally known as Stock Condition Surveys, we complete on average 20,000 per annum. We offer a complete service from the initial scoping client requirements, survey management and delivery to the final reporting and presentation of results. We also have the skills and expertise to develop the results into strategies and prepare programmes of capital works to be executed on site.
  • Energy Efficiency Surveys – We conduct a minimum of 6,000 energy efficiency surveys per annum, each survey provides you with an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC’s). Energy performance certificate shows you the energy efficiency of your home. EPC’s are required for sale or letting of the property.
  • Validation Surveys – We work with a number of major contractors and social housing providers to carry out Validation surveys to ensure the proposed capital works programme reflects the actual condition of the property.
  • Refurbishment Surveys – Where a scope of work has been identified by the client, our role is to attend site and identify, measure and record these elements of works. In addition, whilst on site we will also identify any further works that we believe require renewal and effectively package into a potential refurbishment scheme. In addition to the above, a detailed report is prepared summarising the condition and justifying the rationale of our findings.
