Independent advice

We can intercede in customer/contractor disputes and provide clear guidance as to whether the disputed works are in accordance with the appropriate regulations and recommended best practice. Rather than engaging in negative, protracted disputes, bring us in a professional third party to facilitate dialogue and propose solutions amenable to all parties.

Self-builders

Self-builders repeatedly fail to appreciate the importance of addressing their renewable, mechanical and electrical requirements at an early stage. We can attend site before construction begins and advise on what is required to ensure appropriate spaces and voids are left for the efficient routing of services and the locating of plant.

We can assist to ensure you do not fall foul of the required notification and certification requirements, ensuring a lawful installation that does not compromise your building insurance or your ability to sell the premises at a later stage.

Property purchases/estate agents

We can assess mechanical, plumbing and electrical systems and advise on their condition, as well as any possible remedial cost implications in order that a fully informed decision can be made before acquiring a property, potentially saving thousands of pounds. Likewise we can provide this service if you wish to sell your property, so a potential purchaser cannot raise a problem late in negotiations, in a bid to drive down the price or achieve other concessions.

Landlords

We can assist with HMO registration, managing all plumbing, heating, electrical, fire and ventilation needs in accordance with the Building Regulations, British Standards and local authority requirements.

Competent tradesmen

We can assist competent, qualified tradesmen who require design or technical assistance e.g. an electrician requiring assistance with diversity calculations or a plumber requiring aid with heating wiring controls fault finding.

We have found particularly that contractors expanding from domestic into commercial works lack some understanding of contractual processes, health and safety requirements and the enhanced level of administration and organisation required.
