What Internal Intrusive Works Involve
Looking Behind the Surfaces to Find the Facts
Internal intrusive works involve carefully planned opening-up of internal building elements to inspect and record concealed construction, fire compartmentation, cavity barriers, service penetrations and other critical details.
These investigations are often required when the available information is incomplete, unreliable or cannot confirm the building’s actual internal condition.
Our team carries out controlled investigations, records findings clearly and provides evidence-led reporting to support compliance, refurbishment, fire risk assessment and due diligence decisions.
