Defects Snagging Reporting, builder disputes, Part 35 Report

With our extensive technical knowledge we can inspect, assess and report on building defects, maintenance and workmanship problems leading to a remedy or to settle a dispute.

Whether its damp, cracking, material failure or a dispute with a builder quality we can find the right path with you.

We will inspect the relevant parts of the building and records as available then impartially report on the defects or issues found and help you with a suitable pathway to remedy.

We also carry drones,  thermal imaging cameras, damp resistant meters and other such equipment to limit further expense.    Some defects may require building parts to be opened up, we can liaise with you or a builder to do intrusive investigations to find the root cause of the issue. 

If you're facing building material failures or design issues, we offer defect diagnosis surveys and reporting. We can help you investigate:

• The root cause of material or structural failures
• Builder or design-related problems
• Disputes between leaseholders, owners, or contractors

Our team can act as expert advisors, providing clear evidence to resolve disputes.

We are conversant at liaising between builder, leaseholder and owners to help with disputes in this area. 

We have RICS certified Expert Witness Surveyors who are trained in CPR Part 35 reporting, if your case is going legal or likely to go legal we can impartially and with an unbiased expert opinion provide an expert witness  report on an agreed area of dispute.  

New build, conversion and fit out works require a technical eye either whilst in progress periodically or at completion. We can provide a comprehensive list of quality and defects issues including snagging defects together with questions on compliance issues to allow you to negotiate a better product with your builder / contractor / developer. This quality, snagging or clerk of works inspections are invaluable to keep those parties accountable.

For new builds, conversions, and refurbishments, we offer comprehensive Snagging Inspections. These inspections identify:

• Quality issues and defects during or at the completion of building works
• Non-compliance with contractual terms or building regulations
• Areas where the builder/contractor may need to improve

These inspections ensure your builder is held accountable and that any necessary corrections are made before final payments are issued or to assist in resolving disputes.
