Build Quality Dispute

Overview

Our Building Surveyors are often called upon to act as Expert Witness when a dispute arises about boundaries or a building. Acting as an expert witness requires a significant amount of specialist knowledge and experience in the subject in dispute, as well as the ability to attend court and take questions from the other party’s legal team.

Situation

We were instructed to investigate and advise upon the build quality and workmanship of a partially completed raised conservatory base on behalf of the property owner.

Solution

We inspected and reviewed the completed work in relation to the British Standards and industry best practice. We were able to advise on the value of the completed works and the work required to bring it to standard. Although instructed by one party, the report enabled a settlement to be agreed out of court.

Outcome

We found that completed work was not up to the required standards. Although we had been instructed by one party, our report enabled a settlement to be agreed out of court.ki
