Thoroughly investigate dangerous defects and claim repair costs
When fixtures, fittings or materials break down in the months or years following a healthcare project, we are ready to help you find the cause.

- With decades of hands-on experience in all manner of healthcare buildings, we can establish the root cause of defects with incredible accuracy
- From material defects and poor workmanship, to damage caused by the end user, we explore all potential angles to identify what went wrong
- We compile all findings into a clear, bespoke report, giving you the foundation to pursue the contractors, architects or consultants responsible for your buildings’ defects
Know your healthcare estate’s condition from top to bottom
For a universal understanding of the quality, safety and integrity of your healthcare buildings that goes beyond apparent defects, you can trust our comprehensive Building Condition Surveys. Delivered by our accredited, highly skilled surveyors, gain a clear, indisputable snapshot of your portfolio’s condition, alongside practical plans to create the safest environment for your patients, staff and visitors.
Why choose AEC?
Our decades of dedicated work for NHS trusts, private hospitals and further healthcare centres gives us unrivalled insight into the latent defects that can impact your facilities.
Unfortunately, serious defects can be concealed for months or years after the conclusion of a project, lying dormant until something goes wrong. From insufficient building materials and defective waterproofing, to broken doors, windows and fixtures, you must establish the cause of any faults to avoid risks, identify necessary remediations, and hold those responsible to account.
Our rigorous analysis of defects allows us to explore every possible reason behind its cause and form an impartial, airtight report of what happened. If it is found you have a valid case, our in-depth assessments enable you to pursue the right people to fund any required reparations.
