Welcome to Building & Structural Consultants Ltd

SUBSIDENCE CONSULTANTS

If your building is showing signs of movement, such as cracking of the walls or ceilings it may be due to movement of the foundations from either subsidence or heave.

Structural design

We offer structural design and calculations for steel, concrete and timber beams, joists and lintels, masonry wall panels, roofs and general overall building stability.

BUILDING SURVEYING SERVICES

We offer our unique “Structure-Only” survey which keeps costs down by limiting the inspection and report to structural and load-bearing elements only.

PARTY WALL SURVEYS

Are you proposing building works and need a party wall survey or have you been served with a party wall notice?

CRACK INSPECTION SURVEYS

Is your property showing cracks that are worrying you? 

Subsidence Consultants

At B&SC we understand a great deal about structural building defects and how to resolve them.

Over 20 years experience

We offer a nationwide crack inspection and subsidence investigation service across the whole of the UK. With staff ranging from senior building surveyors & structural engineers to deal with more challenging matters to the more recently-qualified professionals for the simple small jobs to keep costs proportionate. Local surveyors can attend your property in person and liaise with our specialist subsidence consultants who write reports for you. Alternatively our senior subsidence consultants can visit you in person, or carry out a video survey directly with you at a reduced cost.

With experience within the insurance industry, our Subsidence Consultants can also advise you in relation to difficult problems around subsidence claims, carry out risk assessments, and provide Certificates of Structural Adequacy for better insurance terms or ease of buying / selling properties with a subsidence history.

STRUCTURAL DESIGN CALCULATIONS

We can also provide structural design across London and the South-East. Our structural engineers will be happy to attend site meetings and liaise with you and your team to meet both the technical and aesthetic aspects of a project, to the home-owner and their professional team.

 PARTY WALL SERVICES

 We also have Party Wall Surveyors to guide you through the process of compliance with the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, or simply give you advice as to when it does or does not apply.
