When can we support you
Most of our work is undertaken at these key stages:
- RIBA Stage 5 (Monitoring Works on Site)
- RIBA Stages 6 and 7 (Snagging and Handover).
We also get involved early in the design stages (RIBA Stages 3 and 4) to offer proactive advice about construction and the practical ways in which it can be built well and safely.
When the project comes to completion and becomes occupied, we can also provide soft landing discussions to the new occupiers about recommendations for planned maintenance.
The size and location of your projects
We have over 100 highly-experienced Building, M&E, Civil and Landscaping Quality Site Inspectors, Surveyors, Clerks of Works and NEC Supervisors located throughout the UK so that we can provide a local service to you wherever you are.
We can inspect the construction work from small individual housing projects through to multi-use and phased major construction projects.
