Poorly installed insulation in new build! …..saw this recently in a newly built barn. Size of roof simply isn’t big enough to install mineral insulation well - an awful job for anyone let alone being in a roof a child can barely fit into. All we need now is a few electricians and building surveyors 🤓 to crawl all over it to make it really bad!!. A different method should have been adopted similar to the sloping ceilings. Yet another example of why better design and planning is required if we are to properly insulate both new and existing buildings.

These images show the importance of commissioning a Level 3 building survey prior to purchase. In this instance my client purchased a Victorian terrace without a survey and then found damp along the walls. We surveyed roof with our drone which was his initial concern. Roof is very poor, but widespread rising damp noted to several walls which is unrelated to roof. We also noted that there are old asbestos cement floor tiles. The costs will be considerable to rectify so preferably from a

Fantastic day for a Condition Survey for a client who is leasing this industrial unit. Preparing a photographic Schedule of Condition is so important as all leases require tenants to “put and keep the property in good repair” or words to that effect so if not careful tenants can take on liabilities for backlog maintenance. Chief amongst these is painting of cladding (roof and walls) which are covered by separate covenant so always get a condition survey otherwise the landlord may serve a large dilapidations claim at lease end! schedulesofcondition

Did a level 3 survey of this house recently. Room looks like a normal man cave. Only this time it’s been built inside an old indoor swimming pool! Still a faint smell of chlorine after 8 years.

New Medici Housing Policy - Just heard Michael Gove’s new housing policy announcement. Looking to emulate Nash housing and Medici renaissance!!!! Need to stop developers building utter rubbish first. Do agree with point on housing density. Why don’t we build more terraces? These have served us and the rest of the world well. However to build better that can only mean stopping developers building rubbish via a strengthened planning system which will slow supply. The opposite of what the government wants

Beware nesting pigeons on your solar panels!!! These panels have been netted and pigeons weren’t happy, obviously after they made the panels their new home!

Example of solar optimisation! So I have just come back from meeting. Sun has been shining and all the extra power has been exported to grid. Arghhh. Car has now been plugged into the Zappi charger on eco + setting so any excess power is detected by a CT clamp monitoring the incoming and outgoing power and diverted to the car charger. Brilliant bit of technology which meant that 87% of power generated was consumed in April. At that level of consumption pay back is

Solar panels after 1 year - We installed solar panels just over 12 months ago and results are in! Alas it has taken 12 months for eon to fit a smart meter 🤬 so of the energy generated it is less clear how much was consumed and how much exported back to grid. Probably only 50% consumed so eon got all that electricity for nothing! System is now fully optimised and with an electric car drawing the excess power this will rise significantly. More to follow!

Record Associates have been appointed to advise the landlord on a maintenance programme for these fantastic historic buildings in the Ironbridge Gorge. Quite a challenge given the sheer size of the buildings, flood issues, listed status and how best to improve their energy performance. Just a walk in the park 😳
