Bureau Veritas offers a broad range of expertise and experience in the provision of services relating to all aspects of the property development process and portfolio management.
We recognise that property investors, owners and occupiers have specific needs that require a particular approach with trusted, specialist knowledge; these needs relate to every phase of a building asset from development to decommissioning, from investment to divestment.
Our expert professional services begin with geotechnical and environmental evaluations for owners, developers and investors. During the construction phase, our services include the independent verification of design work by others, conformity testing of materials and site monitoring including noise, vibration and air quality issues and health, safety and environmental (HS&E) compliance.
At completion, we offer a vast range of services to support the transaction process, including due diligence, fire assessments, energy mapping, thermal mapping waste and environmental issues and BREAM and LEED rating services.
During the occupation of commercial and industrial buildings, regular monitoring processes are required for safety, maintenance and facilities’ management. Our compliance and testing services enable our clients to make informed, cost-effective decisions across a raft of issues. These include occupational health and safety, corporate responsibility, auditing and verification of green issues and building sustainability commitments.
Throughout any subsequent transaction, time is often a key issue; we offer fast, independent and reliable support to all parties in terms of portfolio assessment, fire, safety and hygiene, and, of course, any statutory compliance issues.

Health, Safety and Fire Management
Managing health, safety and fire is a key issue for all of us in property and is subject to increasing awareness, especially within the working environment. Our tailor made strategies minimise potential risk and consequential disruption and provide surety and confidence to everyone concerned with the building environment. |
 |
Indoor Air and Water Quality
The workplace and built environment is proven to have a major impact on the health, welfare, morale and productivity of employees and visitors alike. Organisations today face the rising challenge of ensuring their workplace environment is a safe, healthy and motivating experience that, in the very least, meets all statutory requirements. |
 |
Occupational Hygiene
Occupational hygiene is about recognising, evaluating and controlling health hazards arising from work. Bureau Veritas carries out personal exposure monitoring for many hazards in a diverse range of working environments. We offer assurance and compliance testing, remedial action advice where necessary and general advice on worker protection. |
 |
Asbestos
Bureau Veritas is an independent market leader in the provision of asbestos management advice and monitoring to all duty holders who own, control or manage property. We ensure total compliance with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006. The obligation to manage asbestos applies to all non-domestic premises from single building users to large property facilities. |
 |
Noise and Vibration
As we demand greater use of our available property assets, encroachment on our neighbours becomes almost inevitable and, consequently, the potential for noise and vibration nuisance will escalate further. Our experts can advise, monitor and record total compliance with any planning restrictions issues that, today, are becoming increasingly evident during construction. |
