Social housing and estate programmes for Bishop Auckland properties

Our County Durham coverage takes in Bishop Auckland (DL14) and nearby Newton Aycliffe, Durham and Darlington. It is around 9 miles south-west of Durham.

Per-address photo records for Bishop Auckland properties make compliance files and EPC updates straightforward. For landlords and managing agents in Bishop Auckland, we survey in batches and return a result sheet and fixed price per address.

Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. County Durham has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.

For regulations, in Bishop Auckland filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
