MLCS3

Delivering Excellence Across the UK Social Housing Sector

At MLCS3, we believe that successful asset management starts with high-quality data. As an RICS-registered firm and the 2018 Greater Manchester Building Consultancy of the Year, we have spent over 25 years perfecting the art of large-scale surveying.

Whether you are managing a portfolio of 50 or 20,000 properties, we provide the clarity you need to develop robust asset strategies and capital works programmes. We don't just collect data; we help you understand the condition of your stock and how it benchmarks against current legislation.

Innovation Through Bespoke Software

We aren't just surveyors; we are technologists. Since 2012, the development of customised, web-based asset and project management software has been at the heart of our operations.

Our hybrid platform allows social housing landlords to view and analyse data while giving contractors the tools to manage the delivery of works. With real-time data syncing via our mobile app, your site staff can digitise paperwork and increase operational efficiency instantly. We even integrate virtual tour technology to provide a truly immersive view of your assets.

Comprehensive Surveying & Specialist Support

Our team of qualified building surveyors, DEAs, and Green Deal specialists provide a full suite of services tailored to the residential and commercial sectors:

• Asset Management & Stock Condition: From initial scoping to final executive reporting and capital works planning.
• Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs): Essential for compliance, sales, and lettings, with over 6,000 lodged annually.
• Validation & Refurbishment Surveys: Ensuring capital works programmes reflect actual property conditions and justifying the rationale for renewals.
• Drone360 Aerial Inspections: CAA-approved drone surveys for hard-to-reach areas, providing high-definition video and imagery for accurate repair schedules.

"Achieving client success through innovation is more than a tagline—it is the standard we bring to every one of the 30,000 surveys we conduct each year."

A Proven Process for Quality Results

We take the stress out of large-scale projects with a rigorous 11-step process. We handle everything: agreeing on the brief, resident liaison and appointment letters, text reminders, the physical survey, and a multi-stage quality check before the final data export.

As an ISO 9001 certified company, we ensure the appropriate processes are in place to provide both our clients and their residents with a first-class service.
