Quality Periodic Visits

Quality Management Systems

Design and construction both affect the quality of homes and often one profession will blame the other for defect and complications. The Callcutt Review was undertaken in 2007 and it included a chapter on Quality and Regulation, with the quality being split between design and construction. Neither design or construction performed well, and the regulation and inspection of work was also criticised. According to the House of Commons briefing paper, released nine years later in 2016, similar issues remain. Through site visits we can pro-activity support you in delivering a project that will buck this trend, assisting you to stand out as a industry leader.

Since our founder started in the industry, the Approved Documents have increased to documents that are twice the size, more complicated and require more than one person to be involved with. Defects still occur and published items concerning defects can be found at Housebuilder and Property developer where they discuss ‘More Homes, Fewer complaints’ published by the government. Whilst the document takes time to read through, it provides a good insight into the issues, and is still relevant today. This can be seen in briefing paper 07665 published by the government which reflects many of the same issues discussed in the older publications.
