 Keeping You Ahead Of The Curve Is Our Speciality

Intrusive Validation surveys help to identify underlying issues that would not be seen from a visual survey. Our expert Validation team can undertake surveys to record performance, condition, and capacity of plant, equipment and systems; informing design, helping manage risk and priorities repair works.

 

Clients come to us for comprehensive and detailed intrusive validation surveys that can help indicate the potential life expectancy of structures, plant, systems, and equipment. Our C+MEP surveys would normally include the isolation of mechanical plant and electrical circuits for detailed inspections/tests, as well as laboratory testing for building structures and materials.

 

Surveys can include pipework condition either by endoscopic inspection or even offsite examination by a metallurgist, boiler condition and operation, chiller condition and operation, temperature and humidity monitoring, water quality testing, Electrical Test and Inspection, Low Voltage Panel inspections, busbar testing, fire alarm including cause and effect testing, lighting level (including emergency) testing, electrical load monitoring, and thermal imaging. 

 

Our Civil Engineering team can cover Non-Destructive Testing to identify moisture intrusion or hidden defects. Sampling and Laboratory testing of building materials and structure. We also offer investigative services covering Foundations, Retaining walls and earthworks, Drainage systems, Pavements and parking areas, Utility infrastructure, and Accessibility features.

​

And to complement both MEP & Civil Teams our Building Services teams can cover all you internal building features, such as Load-bearing walls and partitions, Floor and ceiling systems, Structural framing, Interior finishes, and Accessibility features.

Accurate Data, Leading To Quantifiable Results

Our reports are designed to give you the exact data you need to plan your investment, and accurately determine your ROI. Whether it's traffic light conditional results or a remaining lifespan summary each report is tailored to provide specific data and maximum value.

​

Following any intrusive survey, we provide independent reports to cover the findings. These reports normally cover the following items:

  • Detailed description of the plant and systems installed within the building

  • Executive summary covering any evidence of key issues and defects

  • Limitations and obstructions that affect the scope of the inspection

  • Photographs of defects with problems specifically highlighted

  • clear summary that provides the ability to prioritise remedial actions

  • Recommendations for further inspections where applicable

  • A full list of accessible and inaccessible areas

  • Appendices include test results and marked up drawings

 

The benefits of Intrusive Building Surveys:

  • To evaluate mechanical and electrical plant and systems and advise on the condition and suitability for ongoing use and life expectancy.

  • To identify any significant defects that would adversely affect the performance of the building services

  • To help prioritise and recommend maintenance actions and identification of critical spares.

  • Recommend intrusive inspections outside the scope of the condition survey.
