I have used Wilkinson on a number of projects. They are my go to building inspector and I have used a number of different companies to date. They are flexible, knowledgeable and ensure the build is done correctly, offering solutions in line with regs. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a good building inspector.

Great firm, great service.

The inspectors know what they're doing and the office is helpful and patient. Stops and starts through the pandemic haven't phased them in the slightest and they are always helpful. I think Wilkinson offer excellent value. Thanks

Great service and very practical backed up by a good team.

I used Wilkinson Construction Consultants for my house extension. I was adding 1500sqft to my house so it was a decent size but still relatively small. The team are excellent, very professional and realistic. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others. Well done and thanks to the team.

Is the biggest mistake to use this company guild me through the project,I employed this co in 2019 July by the recommendation through the builder and we have 3 inspection during the build and every single inspection they said is ok even the last inspection done by Geoff and said to me everything is ok and he will past the inspection,he even wrote the last report said reluctantly he will except the fact the situation no worst than before which I proposed to him by me in fact is the first inspector told me about all this!so I throught is the end of story until Geoff wrote to me in June this year 2021 requires for the electric certificate and the plan and ever since than he required each time he wrote more and more at once stages he ever ask for the plan for the ground floor and first floor flat which belongs to someone else from the architect which have nothing to do with the 4 floor extension for my disable partner and during the corresponding email I had told him about my partner situation he been in the hospital with a heart attack and follow by the stroke beginning of the year and he never recovered from the situation along with long term illness we are really struggling with life at the moment But he will not give any sympathy and the number of time the architect and builder try to call him to resolved this issue and he did not return any phoned call and never answered any of my questions and each time he wrote and finally he reviewed he want the door downstairs all change to fire door the sprinkler to put in for the extension after finished 2 year ago and even want the fire plan in September and the architect and the builder both think is very unreasonable request so now the case reverts back to the local authorities Geoff even suggested in the report we have to summit the fire plan with the new application although they refund all the free but still this case shouldn’t been going for so long and my common to him is he is a heartless incompetent person do not use this company cos they didn’t do enough research and just created more problems for our build!

Hi Michael - thanks for taking the time to post the review.

I fully understand your disappointment and your view as a lay person about how this was handled.

However, it is the responsibility of the Architect and the Builder to provide us with information. Unfortunately, in this case the project required full plans to be submitted and these were not supplied. We wrote to you and the builder before works commenced and throughout the project after each inspection explaining that a fire engineers report was required

We tried for over a year to get you to submit the plans and fire engineers report to enable us to consult the fire service and issue an approval, on the basis the works were not worse than existing. However, ultimately the work you carried out does not conform with the Approved Document and we had to cancel the notice.

We pride ourselves on doing a professional job and we are not prepared to sign work off when we have not been provided the proper plans/fire safety information. We do understand how stressful this situation is for you and in view of the health issues and struggles that you faced we offered a full refund as well, as a compassionate gesture.

Warning

Warning
Do not use this company, they will take payment in advance. Then fail to complete works.
Then if you no not pay for very expensive alterations they will report you to the council that will coats. Using Wilkinson Construction Consultants Ltd is stressful and expensive

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, and we are sorry to learn that it was not a positive experience for you.

We appreciate that it can seem unfair to pay for our services in advance. However, as explained in our terms & conditions the fee is not for the work that is done, it is an application fee, much the same as applying for planning permission.

As discussed previously we cannot sign off a builders work if it does not comply with the regulations. In this case the builder did not follow the approved plans, and omitted key fire safety features, so we asked for work to be carried out to rectify this to protect you and your family.

We are proud of our high standards and are sorry you found yourself in this situation.

An excellent service from a very professional company

I brought The Building Inspector onto my project after having issues with the local authority building control.

From the outset the improvement in service levels was clearly demonstrable and a number of issues previously missed were highlighted in a professional way allowing me the time for them to be corrected.

The visits and support continued around covid restrictions and the project was signed off with me fully confident that all was in good order.

An excellent service from a very professional company who I fully recommend.

Home Extension Private Building Control

I employed Wilkinson Construction for my home extension as I found them to have very good reviews online. My experience has been nothing but extremely professional throughout the building work and very helpful post building work to tie up all the details. Very pleased and would recommend to others seeking a private building control company.

General Review

The overall inspection and reporting process was very good, however the Structural Engineers employed under specified steels and it would appear that Wilkinson have no responsibility to check Structural Engineers calculations and the net result was costly

Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review and the kind words about our inspection and reporting service.

I would clarify for readers of the review that the issue arose not from our checking engineer, but from the engineer employed by the designer. The design engineer had incorrectly surveyed the building resulting in the wrong loading case being used. The calculations he then produced were mathematically correct (hence why they were approved), but with a hidden error due to the incorrect design loadings.

As you rightly say we are not responsible for checking the design engineers survey information and how he got these design loadings. This information could realistically only be obtained during the design survey, which is not part of our role, and would have been done prior to our appointment. Had the loading's that he supplied been correct the problem would have been avoided . Once the issue became apparent we reviewed and approved the revised designs and oversaw the installation of the replacement beam on site, without any additional charges.

I understand that the design engineer has now admitted liability for the incorrect loadings.

Thank you again for using our service and leaving a positive review.

Not sure if I would use them again.

The price seemed reasonable and the inspector who visited was helpful and friendly. However, I found email and telephone communication throughout the process difficult to understand and unnecessarily brusque. There was also often a slow response time (1-2 weeks) to my queries. I was pleased with the end result.

Thanks for the review. I’m glad that you were happy with the end result, but disappointed that you found the communication difficult, we will look into that further to see what we can do to improve that.

Our advertised service level is to turn plan checks etc around in 5-10 days so it does appear we met the agreed service level in this case, I understand that it can be frustrating having to wait. If you are not used to the process it can seem like a long delay but is significantly faster than the Local Authorities response time which is typically 5-8 weeks.

Thanks again for taking time out to leave a review its greatly appreciated and helps us to improve our service delivery.
