BUILDING SURVEY - COMMERCIAL

This provides advice on the same areas as the residential counterpart and specifically addresses inset’s which might arise from our clients proposed use of the building; required alterations; and the financial impact of tenant obligations in the lease.

TAILORED SURVEY SERVICE

Advice may be needed on a specific issue either at the time of purchase or during ownership. We are happy to tailor our service to target only those matters requiring investigation.

EXPERT WITNESS REPORTS

These may cover a wide variety of situations but most commonly disputes with contractors on faulty workmanship.

PARTY WALL ACT

A legislative framework applicable where building works are proposed on or  very close to a boundary. The act provides specific rights and responsibilities to both parties and professional advice is essential.

STRUCTURAL SUITABILITY OF LISTED AND OTHER BUILDINGS FOR CONVERSION

We have a particular specialty in this field. The prerequisite for a new use in a listed or historic building is structural suitability for conversion without impairing architectural historic merit.

Coupled with our planning and consultancy expertise we can provide a "one stop" advice on suitability in both structural and planning terms. This may involve a very detailed assessment of the structure. Frequently this appraisal forms part of a planning consultancy but is available as a separate instruction or prior to the preparation of any conversion proposals.
