In my current role, I specialize in property surveying and inspection, with a focus on identifying necessary repairs, assessing property condition, and managing property inventories. I oversee the full lifecycle of property maintenance and compliance—from conducting initial surveys and preparing detailed reports, to coordinating with contractors to ensure timely and high-standard completion of all works in line with regulatory requirements. A key part of my role involves ensuring properties meet gas and electrical safety standards through verification of certifications and scheduling of inspections. I work closely with local councils, managing properties leased from private landlords and supporting their integration into council housing schemes. I have also carried out inspections on behalf of the council to determine property eligibility for these programs. I manage my own workload, maintain detailed records and spreadsheets, and handle the approval of contractor quotes. I ensure all works are verifiedn completion and properly documented. My surveys include assessments for damp and mould, Fire and Fall Hazards in the Home (FFHH), the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS), as well as fire break requirements, loft insulation, and roofing. When specialized evaluations are needed—such as asbestos or fire safety surveys—I coordinate these as part of my holistic approach to property compliance and
