Our long and successful partnerships with Social Housing bodies and Local Authorities means that we have the experience and expertise to diagnose and treat preservation problems such as damp, wood rot and woodworm across all types of housing stock and local authority buildings.

Our survey process has been endorsed and ratified by a wide range of trade bodies, while our surveyors are some of the most experienced and qualified in the entire industry.

Providing for Social Housing and Local Authorities

Before recommending a treatment plan, our surveyors will perform a detailed and comprehensive investigation of the property to establish the scope and scale of any problems.

Upon arriving at the site, our specialist surveyor will provide a full consultancy and diagnosis service including:

  • A thorough investigation of both external and internal sides of the property
  • Application of the latest property preservation diagnosis technology to accurately identify problems
  • Identification of the underlying causes to any apparent problems
  • Diagnosis of any secondary factors contributing to or caused by the issue
  • Delivery of a full report within three days of the survey

The report will describe the scale and scope of the preservation and restoration issues in the property, along with a proposed treatment plan to rectify them. Repair specifications are devised in full compliance with relevant British Standards Institute codes of practice and whilst there is no obligation to follow up on our recommendations, a full method statement and pricing guide will be included should you choose to proceed.
