Our wealth of experience in surveying and diagnosing defects in construction is characterised by our Chartered Surveyor and Project Management team’s expanding knowledge of construction methods and materials alongside our use of the latest technology.

Our Defects Analysis and Building Pathology services cover:

• Inspections and appraisals
• Identification and analysis of defects
• Advice on how to rectify defects
• Supervision of implementation of repairs

In rare instances, further on-site testing and analysis may be required to establish the cause and repair of the defect. Our close relationships with independent laboratories help to get to the root of the problem quickly, progressing you to the best solution.

A Licence for Alterations is a legal document that lists tenants’ obligations when adapting a property, including the terms of reinstating the property when the lease expires.

Our Chartered Surveyors can help tenants to apply for licences by managing the collation and submission of documents, including drawings, to develop an agreement schedule and specification.

Before they pursue their developments, we provide life-cycle advice, so tenants consider and understand their proposals and consider the reinstatement works upon lease expiry.

As well as tenants, we also act on behalf of landlords by reviewing the proposed work so their property is not negatively affected, either structurally or environmentally.

Our practical approach to reviewing opportunities to reduce risk and increase yield ensures that all statutory compliance is acknowledged, that the work is completed to a high standard, and the final product is realised without disputes.

Working on dilapidations cases for funds and institutions in the commercial sector developed our Chartered Surveyors techniques and expertise, providing an increased level of value to the work across all sectors we now operate in.

Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, we are practiced in the legalities as well as the financial aspects of dilapidations works and are more than qualified to support you and your efforts on site as well as in legal settings.

We deal with dilapidations cases involving hundreds of thousands of square footage each year, with millions of pounds claimed in settlements for our clients.

We make sure to be available before the lease and throughout until the end of the agreement, ensuring that risk can be managed in accordance to the client’s requirements, providing balance and ultimate control for you.

Whichever side of the fence you are on, it is crucial that you have appointed a suitably experienced Chartered Surveyor as early as possible to undertake an assessment of potential impacts, risk strategy review, negotiation of agreements and fulfilling statutory obligations where needed.

Our team are skilled experts in representing your best interests and rights, no matter what type of property or land you own. They operate across the UK have seen and dealt with every possible situation and scenario, so you can be assured that you are in good hands.

In addition, the team collaborates with experts in various supporting disciplines to come up with innovative solutions. They can often solve problems that at times may seem unworkable or in deadlock, using their insight and lateral thinking to find a way through.
