🔨Following an accepted NHBC claim, we were appointed to manage internal remedial works to address walls and ceilings found to be out of tolerance within a new build property.

The project included opening-up works, structural framing adjustments, ceiling levelling, reinstatement of finishes, and associated minor electrical alterations before final decoration.

We’re pleased to have successfully delivered the works from planning through to completion, helping restore both quality and confidence in the property.

Thank you for the positive feedback.

Those small brown “shells” are fly pupal casings. The stage where maggots harden into a protective shell before emerging as adult flies 🪰

They’re empty, which means the lifecycle has already completed and is usually linked to a past food source like a dead rodent or old nesting material in the loft.

It’s not an active infestation, but it’s worth a check: clear the area, look for any remains or droppings, and replace any affected insulation to keep things clean and pest-free.

🏰While Andrew's at Disneyland Paris taking in the Tower of Terror…

…it’s a reminder that some buildings make their condition obvious.

Most don’t! Which is why a closer inspection matters🔍

🔍Yesterday our apprentice building surveyor Emily went to a large terraced property to take a look at its roof, gutters, flashing and lots more thats not visible from ground level.

We provide high resolution photographs using the latest drone technology to find defects in buildings which would not normally be possible without scaffolding.

The condition of the roof of a property is rarely seen in detail and problems that are overlooked can cause some of the worst structural issues. Drone surveys are an invaluable new resource and investing in one can keep a roof over your head!

⛵️Last week our surveyor Rob visited Wallsend and Whitley Bay, to inspect two different properties.

As we can see from Robs photos it was a lovely day spent by the coast.

This is also a great example to show you the areas we happily service. 🚗

With rising costs and economic instability, many buyers are becoming much more cautious and as a result it is more important than ever to fully understand the condition of a property before committing.
