If you have already comissioned a report (Envirosearch, Sitecheck or Enviroscreen) and need to take 'Further Action', appoint Wilbourn Associates to deliver an appropriate solution to your problem.

What further investigations do I need to carry out?

The investigations you will need to carry out will depend on why the property has received a 'Further Action'. Enquiries to the local council are usually recommended, as they should hold details including site investigations, planning requirements and landfill monitoring.

The council also have a statutory duty to assess land within their borough which they believe may be contaminated under guidelines set by Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990. Wilbourn Associates www.environmental-surveyors.com can check to see if the property in question falls within or close to any of these areas.

Please note that most council's will charge for a search for the information obtained from their records and may require payment before a search will begin.


How can we help?

Wilbourn Associates can provide tailor made services depending upon why the report received 'Further Action'. We can provide:

A letter report following formal enquiries to the relevant authorities.

A visit to the property critically examining its environmental setting, current and historical use. Completion of the RICS property observation checklist, formal enquiries of the relevant authorities with a formal risk assessment in accordance with RICS guidelines in the form of an environmental screening.

In both cases, we can also consider third party reports in our commission.


How much will it cost?

For a letter report it will cost only £350.00 plus the cost of any enquiries and VAT.

If a site visit is required, the fee for a site of up to 1 hectare will be £750.00 plus cost of disbursements and VAT. For larger properties, please call us for a quote.

If there are other environmental documents which require interpretation, this will cost £95.00 per hour plus VAT.


How to instruct us

We would need a written instruction either by post or to our email address: instructions@environmental-surveyors.com We will also need the reference number found on the front page (in the format ES-12345678-1-12) but preferably a copy of the original report.

Please note, Wilbourn Associates are not provided with any reason as to why the original report was purchased. It will help us if you could tell us why the supplemental report is required.


How long will it take?

Wilbourn Associates aim to provide a report as quickly as possible, but much will depend upon how efficient local authorities are in providing the information we require.

Everything will be done to act as quickly as possible because we realise the need for swift decisive action to enable the project to progress.

Will we simply recommend future intrusive investigation requiring significant cost to you?

No. This is because high quality strategic advice is normally sufficient. However, there may well be situations where discreet targeted work is needed and if a property is being redeveloped it is essential for planning and development purposes.
