Based in Penarth, we are RICS Chartered Building Surveyors bringing a fresh, dynamic approach to property. From specialist disabled adaptations and asbestos surveys to project coordination, we provide the expert oversight you need to protect your investment and ensure safety.
Bringing a Fresh Perspective to South Wales Property
We are Alex French Associates (AFA), a firm of Chartered Building Surveyors based in Penarth. While we call the Cardiff area home, our team works with clients across the UK to deliver a more dynamic, customer-focused approach to surveying.
We believe that professional property advice shouldn't be stiff or overly corporate. Instead, we focus on building long-term relationships through a deep understanding of what our clients actually need—whether that’s a first-time buyer needing a snagging list or a commercial landlord managing complex asbestos risks.
Specialists in Disabled Adaptations & Accessibility
One of our core strengths is our expertise in disabled adaptations. We understand that modifying a home or commercial space is about more than just compliance; it’s about improving quality of life and accessibility. We provide the technical oversight and architectural design needed to ensure these projects are handled with care, empathy, and precision.
Protecting Your Health and Your Investment
We offer a comprehensive suite of safety and compliance services to keep your projects on track and your occupants safe:
- Asbestos Management: Our P402 qualified surveyors provide both Management and Refurbishment/Demolition surveys in line with HSG264.
- Fire Risk Assessments: Essential for mixed-use premises and shared dwellings where safety is paramount.
- Project Coordination: We bridge the gap between clients, architects, and contractors to keep your build on time and on budget.
Comprehensive Surveys for Every Stage
Whether you are buying a new home or managing a commercial portfolio, we provide the clarity you need to make informed decisions:
- Building Surveys: Detailed inspections to help you negotiate price and avoid hidden costs.
- Snagging Surveys: Ensuring your new-build home meets the standards you were promised.
- Defect Reports: Specific advice on damp, subsidence, or timber issues.
- Schedules of Condition: Protecting your interests before a lease or construction begins.
