Building Surveying

CDM Principal Designer

For over 25 years, we have helped clients with site-related health and safety issues and have been qualified as Principal Designers since CDM was first introduced in 2007.

Our surveyors are registered with the Association for Project Safety, as well as RICS, and deliver a comprehensive package based on these practices.

Construction design and management legislation is rarely updated. The service often changes to accommodate the welfare for everyone in, and impacted by, construction work. Current Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015) apply to the whole process on all construction projects, from concept to completion, to secure health, safety and welfare.

We offer a full service including Building Regulations Principal Designer services where needed, ensuring compliance with Building Regulations.

Our support also covers:

Advising clients of their duties under the Regulations.
Ensuring planning and design includes correct health and safety processes.
Communicating with the whole project team for optimal co-ordination.
Notifying the HSE with project details.
Creating the pre-construction information pack for the Principal Contractor.
Providing the Principal Contractor with the information needed to progress the project.
Collating and updating information for the Health and Safety File.
Providing a Health and Safety File on completion of the project.
Reviewing health and safety information for future work..

Across the UK, where The CDM Regulations (NI) 2016 apply, we can work alongside our contract administration, project management or employer’s agent services. This keeps costs low and protects all parties involved with, or impacted by, our construction project.
