Handover, building safety and defects
We take off your hands: chasing handover documents, certificates, fire-stopping evidence and O&M manuals, and tracking snags and defects to close.
You get: handover documents and certificates tracked from day one, draft O&M sections and retention applications on time, for your project managers to check.
