Addressing Leaky and Defective Buildings
If you suspect your property is suffering from weathertightness issues, whether it be a leaky building or defects in construction, we can help you every step of the way. Asset Project Facilitators Ltd (APF) brings together a multidisciplinary team of architects, building surveyors, quantity surveyors, project managers, and structural engineers to assist with diagnosing, managing, and remedying weathertightness issues.
Our Approach to Weathertightness Issues
Initial Investigation & Site Assessment
The first step in addressing any weathertightness issue is a thorough investigation. We conduct a detailed site inspection to identify any existing defects and assess the risks to your property. Using the latest diagnostic tools, we evaluate the condition of the building’s envelope, including cladding, roofing, windows, and flashing, to pinpoint areas of concern.
Based on our findings and insights from specialist sub-consultants, we will provide you with a comprehensive report that outlines:
- The defects and damage found
- An estimation of the repair costs
- A remediation plan detailing the scope of work required
This allows you to make informed decisions about how to proceed with repairs and possible legal actions, if needed.

Remedial Design & Project Management
Once we’ve completed the investigation and repair budget estimation, we move forward to assist with the remediation process. Our services include:
- Designing the remedial works: Our architects and building surveyors work together to create effective, long-lasting solutions for your property’s weathertightness issues.
- Quantity surveying: We provide accurate cost estimates and manage the procurement process, ensuring repairs stay within budget.
- Project management: We can oversee the entire repair process, or act as contract administrators, ensuring work is completed to the highest standards, on time, and within budget.
