As RICS-accredited experts, we bridge the gap between traditional surveying and modern technology. From major works management to specialist RAAC and drone surveys, we provide clear, concise advice to protect your property investment across London and the South of England.
Protecting Your Largest Investment with RICS Expertise
At Hallas & Co., we understand that property is more than just bricks and mortar—it’s likely the most significant investment you’ll ever make. As an established firm of Independent Chartered Surveyors, we provide a level of detail and clarity that goes beyond the standard checklist. From residential homes in Richmond to large-scale commercial developments, our mission is to provide clear, concise, and actionable advice that empowers your decision-making.
High-Access Specialists: Drones and Rope Access
Why settle for "limited access" notes in a report? We utilise cutting-edge technology to see what others can't. Our team is equipped to handle complex inspections that traditional firms might shy away from:
- Drone Surveying: We provide high-resolution aerial inspections for roofs and hard-to-reach structures, saving you time and money on unnecessary scaffolding.
- Rope Access: Our surveyors are trained to descend buildings safely, providing hands-on inspections of cladding and facades to ensure total structural confidence.
From Design to Delivery: Your Project Partners
If your building is due for its major works cycle, we take the stress out of the process. We don't just spot problems; we design the solutions. We specialise in coordinating projects from initial concept through to final completion, ensuring value for money at every stage.
- Design & Specification: Bespoke plans that balance aesthetics with compliance.
- Tendering & Procurement: We leverage our network to find the right contractors at the most competitive prices.
- Contract Administration: We safeguard your interests throughout the construction phase, managing disputes and ensuring quality control.
Navigating Modern Safety and Structural Challenges
In an evolving regulatory landscape, we lead the way in specialist safety assessments. We are currently at the forefront of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) surveys and Fire Safety Act compliance. Whether you are a homeowner concerned about structural integrity or a commercial landlord managing risk, our RICS-accredited team has the technical depth to support you with EWS1 forms and Fire Risk Appraisals of External Walls (FRAEW).
