How I can help
Construction detail matters.
Focused support to understand what was specified, what was installed and what may have gone wrong.
Defect investigation
Assessment of façade and internal drylining failures, including relevant records, details and site evidence.
Technical consultancy
Independent advice on installation quality, remedial proposals and practical next steps for building owners and project teams.
Expert witness
Considering instructions in my areas of experience.
I am developing an expert witness practice focused on façade and drylining installation and failures. I will consider each enquiry individually and only accept work where the issues fall within my knowledge and experience and I can act independently.
- Façade, external wall and drylining installation
- Workmanship and alleged defects or failures
- Inspection, records and technical issues relevant to the dispute
Please contact me to discuss the issues, proposed scope, timetable and any relevant experience before appointment. Availability and suitability are assessed case by case.
