Monitoring
Smithers Purslow Property Services has recognised that crack monitoring is a specific and important process in the investigation of building defects and has developed a range of products and services for Loss Adjusters, Insurers, Independent Structural Engineers, Building Surveyors, Local Authorities, Housing Associations, Landlords and property owners in the domestic, commercial and industrial sectors.

Cracks appear in masonry buildings for a variety of reasons. Monitoring the cracks and movement can help both identify the cause and facilitate recovery of any financial outlay, particularly where third party trees are involved.

Remote Monitoring
Smithers Purslow Property Services now offers a breakthrough in monitoring services by combining wireless sensors with mobile telephony.

This unique combination provides significantly enhanced property monitoring, allowing 24/7 data collection over a secure, managed intranet. Installation of the sensors is made as simple as possible using wireless technology. The sensor units are battery powered and only require screw fixing in the pre-determined locations. The captured data is available to the client through a user-friendly database accessible only through a password-protected web-site, allowing easy access and ensuring total data protection at all times.

Remote monitoring enables real time analysis of structures, which has the benefit of tracking sudden/ dramatic movement where structural movement is a concern, enhances pro-active handling, helps quicker decision making and has the advantage of reducing environmental disruption. The technology is particularly useful for high level positions or if access is difficult such as to church spires or beneath river bridges. It saves troubling homeowners for access, reduces travelling especially to remote locations and sets a good impression to important customers or in high profile situations.

Contractor Audits
With our national network of qualified Technicians, we carry out over 250 independent audits a month, auditing the quality of work carried out by contractor networks, helping maintain the highest standards on behalf of some of the largest insurance companies.
