Legal
Compliance is instructed in writing. If the job needs a contract, a lease consent, a licence or a party wall award, we coordinate it with the adviser who is allowed to give that advice. We are not a law firm.
Property services
Compliance
The certificates and duties a let or occupied building is expected to hold. We name what is missing and get it done.
Private
For the owner, the landlord, the home.
Private landlords and houses. Gas, electrics, alarms, EPC and the licence if the let needs one.
Commercial
For the building that has to keep working.
Commercial occupiers and landlords. Fire, asbestos, legionella, electrical and the duties that come with staff in a building.
How it is instructed
- 01List the buildings
- 02We say what is due and what is missing
- 03The qualified person attends and the certificate comes back to you
What clients ask for
Gas safety
CP12 for let homes, and gas safety for commercial plant. A Gas Safe engineer. Annual for most lets.
EICR
Electrical installation condition report. Typically every five years on a let, sooner if the last one failed.
EPC and MEES
Energy certificate, and whether the building can still be let under the minimum rating.
Fire risk assessment
Required where the building has common parts, staff or paying occupiers. Actions, not a PDF that sits in a drawer.
Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms
The alarm standard on a let. We check they are present and that they work.
Fire doors, alarm and emergency lighting
The systems a block or an office is expected to test and record.
External walls
FRAEW where the wall build needs it. We do not call every building a cladding job.
Asbestos
Management survey before you drill, strip or refurbish a building old enough to have it.
Legionella
Water risk assessment for blocks, offices and any system that stores or heats water.
HMO and property licensing
Whether the let needs a licence, and the conditions the council attached.
Building Safety Act
Higher-risk residential buildings: the accountable person, the safety case, the information that has to exist.
PAT, lifts and air conditioning
Portable appliance tests, LOLER on lifts, and TM44 inspections where the air conditioning qualifies.
On every instruction
What it takes to actually do this.
Compliance
If compliance touches gas, electrics, fire, structure, asbestos or a building you let, the certificate or the duty is named before anyone starts. It is not left until the end.
Support
One desk stays with you after you instruct us. You are not passed between strangers. When the next step is needed, we say so and we do it.
Global
Compliance is taken in London and globally. Same desk. The local licence, the local professional and the local rule are named for that country before anyone is sent.
What we need from you
- The address, and who can open the door
- What you want fixed, in plain words
- The lease, the freeholder rule, or the last report, if you have it
- Who is allowed to say yes to the next cost

Also in surveying
- Building surveyThe condition of the building, written so you can decide. Not a walk-round with no conclusion.
- Structural engineeringCracks, openings, load and whether the building can take what you want to do to it.
- Measured surveyThe building drawn as it is, so design and pricing are not based on a guess.
- DilapidationsWhat the lease says the occupier must put back, and what that will actually cost.
