Surveying
Independent Property Surveys
To date we have undertaken in excess of 3500 property surveys aligned to reported damp, condensation and mould issues. And, an assessment of the data showed that 94% of the properties were dry and hence the issue is likely due to a host of internal aspects that when combined, serve to enhance the reported result.
Our approach upholds a ‘bespoke assessment protocol’ such that even if the issues are repetitive, the survey will pertain to the structure under review only. However, a number of surveys also serve to deliver trend information should an important aspect be determined that could be replicated in similar property styles and geographical orientations.

The survey process also embraces a defined management aspect of the atmosphere and its everyday management since this entity alone serves to develop into the reported problems if not managed in a competent manner. The process embraces external and internal aspects of a structure with photographic evidence where a potential or existing element is or can develop/contribute to an existing or future issue.
Surveys include qualitative and quantitative data gathering where they are deemed pertinent to securing a fact-based outcome for interested parties and any cost effective repairs. The independent transparent surveying process is suitable for new-builds to ensure the structure is ready for occupation with recognisable guidance of installed aspects and their optimisation.
