By undertaking a detailed property inspection, B3 Construction Consultancy can reduce the potential costs and minimise the repair process caused by building defects. The early identification and detection of these defects means that building owners cannot only save money but also minimise the risks that could potentially arise from such defects.

We have access to a wealth of knowledge and experience and use specialist investigation equipment to detect and identify building defects. We will undertake a detailed property inspection for commercial clients or house inspections for residential clients, producing a detailed defect report. This report takes into account all construction and maintenance issues along with our recommended course of action.

MINIMISING DISRUPTION

We understand that any work, from inspection to maintenance, will involve disruption to a business or residential household. We therefore offer flexibility in our availability including unsociable hours to accommodate our clients requirements.

    REACTIVE MAINTENANCE

    Sometimes the problems can be easily identified and rectified by local contractors. At other times, a surveyor may be engaged to investigate further with specialised detection equipment.  Our surveyors will use their knowledge and testing techniques to report their findings and recommend the repair works required.

    In the case of a building failure, the issue must be identified as a matter of urgency and procedures put in place to make the building safe. This often involves propping or shoring to make the structure safe.

    PLANNED MAINTENANCE

    It is not always possible to avoid reactive maintenance but it is always advisable to have a planned maintenance schedule in place. This can minimise the risk of defects and save money and time. Planned and regular maintenance will reduce the risk of reactive maintenance being required at a future point.
