CH_G

Two services. One point of contact.

Every engagement is governed by a signed letter of appointment before work begins. The first conversation is confidential and without obligation.

01Building Asset Advisory

Understanding a property’s condition, prioritising its risks and anticipating its needs, at a key moment and over time. CH_G adapts the level of investigation to the issues at stake: Building Survey, Comprehensive Building Survey or AR-PMP.

BS

Building Survey

Document review, property inspection and prioritised conclusions.

A technical assessment combining document review with an on-site inspection. The Building Survey can be undertaken before an acquisition or sale, in connection with a transfer of assets, or whenever a specific issue requires investigation. It provides an independent assessment of the property’s condition and its technical and financial implications.

Scope

  • Review of available technical documents and diagnostic reports
  • On-site, non-destructive visual inspection
  • Consistency review between documentation and apparent condition
  • Identification of risks, defects and apparent non-compliance
  • Structured report with decision-oriented conclusions

Exclusions

Excludes design and project management, regulated diagnostics, specialist engineering studies, and legal or tax advice.

Fees

Quotation provided after an initial discussion, according to the nature and complexity of the property.

CBS

Comprehensive Building Survey

In-depth investigation with specialist expertise where required.

Designed for situations involving significant technical or patrimonial issues. The Comprehensive Building Survey takes the Building Survey further through a higher level of investigation and, where required, the involvement of independent engineering firms, engineers or specialists.

Scope

  • In-depth review of documents and diagnostic reports
  • One or more property inspections
  • Architectural and construction analysis
  • Coordination of engineers and specialist consultants where required
  • Cross-analysis and synthesis of specialist contributions
  • Structured summary report with decision-oriented conclusions

Exclusions

Excludes design and project management, regulated diagnostics where separately required, legal or tax advice, and judicial expertise.

Fees

Quotation provided after an initial discussion, according to the nature and complexity of the property.

AR-PMP

Asset Review & Planned Maintenance Programme

Building condition review and long-term maintenance planning.

For a property already owned, the AR-PMP establishes a technical baseline, assesses how the building is ageing, and organises the interventions and expenditure to anticipate. It results in a multi-year programme enabling the owner to prioritise, plan and budget for the long-term upkeep of the asset.

Scope

  • Document review and checks against official sources
  • Non-destructive architectural inspection, including grounds and surroundings
  • Aerial inspection by drone
  • Review of current contracts, warranties and insurance policies
  • Prioritised and costed action register
  • Thirty-year maintenance plan and budget projection
  • Online client portal

Exclusions

Excludes design and project management, regulated diagnostics, formal property valuation, and legal or tax advice.

Fees

From €2,500. Fees are established after an initial discussion, according to the property size, complexity and extent of the grounds.
