Trusted technical insight to protect value, manage risk, and inform long-term decisions. Our Building Surveying service combines RICS-aligned expertise with practical, clear reporting — so owners, asset managers, and professionals get the facts they need.
What we do
- Building surveys and inspections — Thorough on-site assessments to identify defects, assess condition, and advise on structural and fabric integrity.
- Pre-acquisition due diligence — Clear, impartial reporting to support confident investment and property decisions.
- Condition reporting — Prioritised findings with severity grading, root cause analysis, and recommended actions.
- Site monitoring and contract administration — Oversight of works to ensure quality, compliance, and delivery against specification.
How we work
- RICS standards, plain English — Rigorous technical method delivered in accessible language.
- Technology-enabled practice — We use modern tools—thermal imaging, digital data capture, drone and aerial imagery, and cloud-based reporting platforms—to improve accuracy, speed and traceability. Technology helps us capture precise evidence on site, annotate findings clearly, and deliver timely, consistent reports.
- Practical priorities — Concise executive summaries, clear photos and annotated plans so non‑technical clients can act quickly.
- Collaborative delivery — We work with contractors, asset teams and solicitors when required, and can produce technical appendices for procurement or legal use.
