and planned maintenance work across a 10-year (10 year +)
programme.,
On behalf of our client, we: -
- Co-ordinated access to rear areas of the "private"
residential buildings to align with time constraints to produce
the reports
- Recorded the basic property attributes
(age, construction, orientation)
- Identified defects and repairs including breaches of health
and safety (trip hazards, loose materials / components),
and non-compliance to building regulations
- Associated each repair with a condition rating (life
expectancy / predictions of failure of that element / component)
- Provided budget costs per repair
- Allocated each repair with a trade in the industry
- Collated findings into a succinct report that allowed the
client to prioritise work and identify possible shortfall in
finance; strategic planning for stock reinvestment,
improvements and in some areas for reduction in
energy use
