Structural Safety Assessments

Our service identifies, reviews, and provides mitigation recommendations for structural risks across residential and commercial properties, ensuring compliance with the Building Safety Act, health & safety legislation, and safeguarding residents and stakeholders.

Why do I need a Structural Safety Assessment?

Structural issues aren’t always visible, but they can pose serious risks if left unaddressed. A professional assessment helps you understand the condition of your building and identify any concerns before they escalate.

When is a Structural Safety Assessment suitable?

✓ Visible cracks, movement, or signs of structural damage
✓ Concerns raised by residents, surveyors, or contractors
✓ Before major refurbishment or building works
✓ Following incidents such as fire, flooding, or impact damage
✓ As part of ongoing risk management for higher-risk buildings

How Structural Safety Assessments Support Compliance

Structural safety assessments help duty holders demonstrate that building risks are being properly identified, evaluated, and managed. They support compliance with legislation such as the Building Safety Act 2022 and align with wider responsibilities around maintaining safe, well-managed buildings.
