A2D

ABOUT US

Reliable & Honest

Fast, efficient and brutally honest, A2D has become a reputable and well-known construction inspection and aftercare management provider since 2002.

We inspect new builds, conversions and refurbishment projects on behalf of our clients, to ensure that the agreed construction details and workmanship quality has been achieved.

Our Quality Control Inspectors not only produce comprehensive snagging reports which advise you and your building contractor / developer of all defective matters present at 'Practical Completion', we also crucially highlight problems which fall below the current NHBC and Building Regulation guidelines, where often clients are unaware of the technical 'grey areas'. Our job is to make sure that all defective matters are resolved within the contracted warranty period. 

​

Our team is up for every job, managing projects with the passion, skill and dedication that our clients have come to enjoy and expect. Once an inspection has been completed, we will continue to support you and answer any questions in relation to our report during your building cover.

A2D also offer a wealth of architectural design solutions, with regards to both the internal and external aspects of your project. We design proposed new layouts that can be continually revised until a final design has your approval. Our use of materials and creative thinking, along with a commitment to continuously update our knowledge of the built environment, encourages us to freely seek more pioneering solutions.

NEW BUILD INSPECTIONS

Warranty Reporting

A2D is a trusted name within the industry, offering exceptional value for money in providing this new home snagging service.

​

Snagging companies are accustomed to raising as many defects as possible, in order to quantify their inspection report fees. These are often exaggerated snag lists which cloud over the actual extent of the problems which can affect your new home. 

Our effective reporting not only highlights the actual problems found, we ensure that our testimony has been written in line with Building Regulation and NHBC warranty guidelines. This ensures that warranted defects are accounted and rectified by the new home builder as part of their service to you.

​

A dedicated Aftercare Manager will correspond directly with the home builder on your behalf, highlighting any defective matters and providing you with free continuous technical support.

PROPERTY UPGRADE

Refurbishment / Permitted Development

With there being so many possibilities when exploring the various forms and styles of architectural design, we are often bombarded and confused by the vast choice on offer.

We discover the possibilities of permitted development and look to revise your current spatial constraints, in order to best fit your proposed requirements.

I worked closely with the QA Manager Martin Roberts in managing the defects from start to finish and making sure communication with residents was there every step of the way. Martin was very proactive in dealing with any contractual issues that may occur during the build and always kept both customers and clients within the loop, effectively balancing both the business interests and customers’ demands.

Yasin Rahman

Lead Customer Relationship Executive

He is very knowledgeable about new build technical requirements and demonstrated the ability to liaise with both site staff and sub-contractors to affect any necessary remedial works that he identified.

​

He demonstrated the ability to explain to purchasers what remedial works he was going to arrange and more importantly, explain to purchasers reasons why some requests did not fall within the scope of the properties warranty. Martin was then able to support his dealings with customers with well-constructed correspondences’.
