Innovative, reliable, and fully documented reports for the built

Our Services
Façade Consulting
We provide expert façade consulting services for new and existing
buildings. Our team evaluates design, materials, and performance to
ensure compliance with building codes and industry best practices.
We work closely with architects, developers, and engineers to
deliver façades that are safe, durable, energy-efficient, and
aesthetically aligned with the project’s vision.
Quantity Surveying (QS)
Our quantity surveying services cover cost planning, budgeting, and
financial control throughout the construction lifecycle. From
feasibility studies to final accounts, we help clients manage their
construction budgets with transparency and accuracy. Our team
ensures value for money while maintaining quality and compliance
with regulations.
Exemption Reviews
We assess projects requiring exemption from standard building or
planning requirements. Whether you're seeking exemptions under local
regulations or specific clauses of the Building Code, our team
provides detailed analysis and documentation to support your
application. We help identify the most appropriate pathways and
mitigate risks of non-compliance.
Maintenance Reports
Our maintenance reporting service includes thorough inspections and
documentation of a building’s condition, including key elements such
as façades, roofs, cladding, and weatherproofing. These reports
assist property owners and managers in planning proactive
maintenance schedules, budgeting, and ensuring long-term asset
performance.
Damage and Insurance Reviews
We offer independent assessments of building damage due to weather
events, construction defects, or accidents. These reviews are
tailored for insurance claims, legal disputes, or remedial planning.
Our reports provide unbiased, technically-sound evaluations that
support fair outcomes and effective repair strategies.
Documented Reporting
We produce clear, comprehensive, and professional reports tailored
to each project's needs—whether it's a compliance audit, site
inspection, condition report, or construction observation. Our
reports are formatted for use by stakeholders including clients,
insurers, legal teams, and councils, ensuring they meet both
technical and administrative requirements.
