What Is A Building Survey?

Prendos has the largest and most experienced specialist building surveying team in New Zealand, with both local and international experience. The Prendos team have worked extensively across all building types, including:

• Low to high rise
• Private dwellings
• Multi-unit properties
• Commercial
• Industrial
• Special Purpose (eg Medical or Health)
• Public Buildings (eg Education)

Our clients are the heart of the Prendos business. We like to engage and partner with our clients to firstly understand the key issues, requirements and desired outcomes and then create a tailored solution that is sustainable and enduring.

Prendos were first to bring to the attention of the public and industry the issues that are now widely associated with "leaky buildings" and were the first to offer comprehensive defect analysis and remediation design and management solutions.

Prendos are continually researching and developing detection systems and processes that pin point weathertightness issues. We are designing building processes that fully restore building purpose. The benchmarks set by us are now widely accepted as industry best practice.

In 2007 Prendos created the "Leaky Home Guide" to assist homeowners with the processes involved in identifying and rectifying a Leaky Home. This guide is available on request at no charge or available to download above.
 
Remediation Design and Delivery

Prendos has pioneered investigative techniques to ensure that the full extent of issues and causes are known so a comprehensive and lasting solution can be put in place.

Prendos assist across the whole spectrum of the remediation process, with in-house building surveyors, quantity surveyors and architectural and design teams.
