Defects Analysis Reports
These reports provide detailed advice on single specific defects on any type of building. A core skill of 7H Chartered Surveyors, these are used by individuals and corporate clients to identify the defect in detail and provide options for remedy or redress.
Dilapidations
7H Chartered Surveyors prepare Schedules of Dilapidations on both commercial and domestic properties and which can be costed if required and are accompanied by photographic evidence, plans and other supporting documentation. All schedules produced adhere strictly to the latest RICS guidelines and regulations.
Schedules of Condition
We provide highly detailed Schedules of Condition for the commercial property market mainly. However, residential Landlords should also provide such detailed reports to protect both parties to a letting arrangement. Our Schedules are supported by a large amount of photographic evidence, to minimise misunderstanding.
Building Conservation
7H Chartered Surveyors takes great pride in the depth of knowledge and experience we have with Listed Buildings and building conservation. Building conservation is a sensitive issue which attracts a great deal of attention from local councils and the public alike. Managing conservation work requires close liaison with numerous regulatory bodies and specialist contractors.
7H Chartered Surveyors are members of SPAB –The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings which is considered the authority on building conservation and restoration matters in the UK- consulted by government bodies, Councils and building professionals throughout the country.
Expert Witness Work
7H Chartered Surveyors can provide Expert Witness services. These usually take the form of providing skilled and knowledgeable evidence on specific defects; their causes, responsible parties, solutions and costs.
Maintenance Program Schedules
Advice can be given and schedules prepared on all aspects of property maintenance.
Building Health & Safety Matters
All matters relating to the above and including the latest current legislation is covered by this practice and we can ensure that all work undertaken will strictly adhere to these guidelines.
Party Wall & Boundary Matters
