Commercial Defect Investigation

Professional investigation of commercial building defects, helping identify likely causes, extent and appropriate remedial action.

Identifying the Cause, Not Just the Symptoms

Commercial building defects are not always straightforward. Water ingress, cracking, damp, deterioration or recurring maintenance problems may be symptoms of a wider underlying issue.

DRW Surveyors takes a systematic approach to defect investigation, considering the building’s construction, condition, use and relevant contributing factors to help identify likely causes and determine appropriate next steps.

Where further specialist investigation is required, we will explain this clearly and advise on the appropriate course of action.
