Building Monitoring That Keeps Your Project on Track
Our Building Monitoring service offers independent, stage-by-stage inspection and oversight during attic conversions or extensions. It’s designed to give homeowners peace of mind during construction by independently checking that critical elements, such as foundations, insulation, drainage, and structural work, are completed to a high standard at the right time.
Using our expert structural and building surveying background, we verify that each critical construction phase is completed correctly, so you don’t have to worry.
Whether you need a final compliance sign-off or full-stage monitoring with issue tracking and builder coordination, we tailor our service to your level of involvement so you stay in control, without the stress.
