Over the last decade we have provided precompletion sound testing for Part E across London and the Southeast, and using this amassed knowledge of how different construction types effects the…

Thermal imaging inspections are a great tool for identifying potential problems in your new or existing commercial building. They can pick defects in your building envelope, such as damaged or…

There are many applications for resilient bars; however, the most common application is for upgrading the sound proofing in party walls and floors. Resilient bars act as the resilient layer…

The Importance of Air tightness testing cannot be underestimated. Blower door testing is a technique that can be used to quantify the amount of air leakage of a building fabric.…

One thing to remember with Ventilation and airtightness is they are always co-dependent when it comes to PAS2035  doesn’t recommend to make a building airtight without allowing for adequate building…

Common Air Leakage Paths Identified During Air Tightness Testing for PAS 2035 In our experience, the more complete a development, the more likely it is to achieve a low air…

If your building achieves poor air test results in excess of 10m3/hr/m2, don’t panic! We can undertake combined air tightness testing and smoke leakage surveys to identify the air leakage paths…

There are many reasons why air leakage testing is important for PAS2035 project, by establishing how much air infiltrates through your building enclosure/envelope via air leakage testing, will help identify…

Our blower door system can be set up quite quickly to undertake air tightness testing on PAS2035 buildings. This means we can quickly ascertain the buildings air leakage rate and…

The PAS 2035 standard and the requirements it sets out is to encourage a shift to a whole-building approach. One of the main focus of PAS 2035 is the connection…
