We have an in depth understanding of how buildings are constructed and perform enabling us to design and specify work appropriately for the property and client. We have a knowledge of new building technologies and products in addition to traditional methods of construction allowing us to find a solution to any problem in the built environment.
We are able to carry out drone surveys of properties where access arrangements or costs make it difficult to utilise traditional methods. A drone survey is particularly useful on large commercial premises such as warehouses where roofs and frames are not easily inspected. They are also an invaluable tool when inspecting period properties where butterfly roofs and parapet gutters are often inaccessible.
