Our Services
We’re proud to provide consultants, engineers, builders and even the general public with a top-notch and value for money service. Our clients love working with us, many of them returning as repeat customers. We are able to undertake building condition surveys, cladding surveys (in particular to determine type of foam insulation), soils investigations (including Phase 1 Desk Studies right through to Phase 4 Validation) and provide testing and advice on potentially contaminated land. Get in touch to let us know what we can do for you today.
Concrete Investigations
Our specialist engineers are able to carry out intrusive and non-intrusive surveys on all types of concrete structures. We are able to assess the overall condition and deterioration of structural concrete and steel reinforcement and assess the suitability for refurbishment of buildings.
Composite Cladding Inspection (ACM)
Following the Grenfell Tower fire on 14 June 2017, the government commissioned a series of large scale fire tests of Aluminium Composite Material ( ACM ) cladding. These were intended to establish how different types of ACM panels in combination with different types of insulation behave in a fire. Albert Cole Consultants are able to take samples to determine type of insulation present and determine its fire rating.
Geotechnical/Contamination Testing (Soil Testing)
Samples taken from site can be tested to determine their physical parameters as well as for the presence of contaminants from the past usage. All site works are completed to BS5930 and geotechnical testing is completed to BS1377. Environmental testing is undertaken in MCERTS & UKAS accredited laboratories.
