Testimonial
To: Mike Murphy, Ynni Cymru Energy Solutions Ltd
We are currently converting a commercial building into an aparthotel and when the building control officer issued their requirements for compliance there were a large number of upgrades required to the insulation, adding a substantial amount to our refurb costs.
Strangely there was no request for a SAP calculation which led us to believe that there was no need to instruct an energy assessor and potentially a saving on our budgets, or so we thought.
Despite this we consulted Mike who agreed to attend site and for a competitive fee, provide calculations to ensure that the building control officer was correct by stating EWI was required throughout.
Mike’s investigations found that there was in fact no need to upgrade the insulation to the first and second floors of the building.
Mike not only provided calculations to evidence his findings, but he also attended a site meeting with building control to ensure they accepted his proposal.
By involving Mike early on in the project it saved us tens of thousands of pounds in insulation, rendering and scaffolding costs, not to mention the ability to complete the project quicker and start trading.
I would highly recommend anyone who is undertaking refurbishments or projects where building control inspectors are involved to consult with Mike at a very early stage as it could prove very expensive not to!
Kind Regards and Many Thanks
