read moreWhen youre buying a new home it is advisable to have at least a RICS homebuyers survey done as this will provide some piece of min that what you are buying is sound and fit for purpose.

The homebuyers survey will examine the property as a whole, rates its general condition and identifies any areas that may require attention. Normally this survey is enough and if youre satisfied with the report youll continue with the purchase. However if youre buying an older property needing some TLC, or on occasion the RICS Homebuyers report may recommend additional investigation if they locate a problem that needs to be looked at by a specialist and you may need to commission a more in depth report. They may identify problems with the electrics, drainage, utilities supply or the structure of the building.

read moreTemporary works the short-term parts of the construction required to enable the permanent works to be built.

Temporary works are an essential element of the construction process, but for some reason, these are often an afterthought, rather than an integral part of the design. Here at Blue Sky Consulting Engineers we provide structural systems that ensure that both your temporary works structure and permanent works structure remain stable throughout the construction process.

With a hands-on background in the construction industry, and many years spent buckling under the weight of a hod, our team understand the unique issues faced by builders and the need to avoid the costly delays that leave construction pros twiddling their thumbs.

Thats why we build temporary works design into our projects from the outset, ensuring the safety of your build from conception to completion.
