Our residential surveyors work with homeowners, builders and architects on all residential projects, including new builds, home extensions, renovations, and large-scale residential developments.

At Arki, we’re with you from the start through to the completion of the project, supporting you with our expert services, including:

Building Permits

Having the correct documentation in place before applying for a building permit is essential for keeping a project on schedule. We work with project teams to confirm regulatory requirements, review construction documentation, and identify consultant input needed to get the application right the first time.

Mandatory Inspections

Carrying out inspections at key stages of construction ensures the build proceeds safely and in line with approved plans. Our building surveyors and inspectors assess work at each mandatory inspection stage, identify potential defects, and provide clear guidance to builders on rectification.

Essential Safety Measure Audits

Fire systems, emergency exits and other essential safety measures require regular review to confirm they remain functional and compliant. We assess all safety elements of a building against current requirements to support full regulatory compliance.
