Specialist Investigation

An elemental or specialist investigation is carried out where concern exists over specific parts of, or defects in, a property. Examples of this specialist work include the detailed investigation and study of movement, cracking and bulging, timber decay, or the testing of building services such as electrical wiring, gas installations and foul water drainage — for which we obtain the support of one of our partner agencies as necessary, depending on our findings on site.

The scope of this type of investigation is specific to each individual problem identified and, if necessary, the brief may be altered as findings on site dictate.

However, where Domestic Clients wish the survey inspection to be carried out within 5–14 working days, they will be requested to complete a form of Waiver in compliance with the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.
