Environmental Health Surveys

Our team of Environmental Health Officers conduct full and in-depth inspections, assessing properties in accordance with the Environmental Protection Act 1990.

We are diligent in identifying and reporting any instances of statutory nuisance or hazards, as defined by the HHSRS (Housing Health and Safety Rating System) to make sure the property complies with the Environmental Protection Act 1990, thereby creating a safe and habitable living environment.

Accurate Assessment:

Our Environmental Health Officers (EHOs) undergo extensive training to assess various environmental conditions to enable them to conduct comprehensive, in-depth evaluations and assessments of any potential hazards within the property. They are experienced in identifying the 29 hazards outlined by the HHSRS and in the understanding of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 to ensure compliance with relevant legislation.

We are committed to ensuring that homes are safe and conducive to a decent quality of life.

What our clients say

 

{Just wanted to provide a bit of feedback on HDS’s report (Please see attached). They provide a detailed account of the alleged defects and provide a list of recommended works, SOR priced and provide a well formatted selection of photographs as evidence. Looking at the invoice they also provided, they offer value for money too when it comes to getting reports completed using this method. Out of all the SJE/EWR reports I have received, HDS’s have been the best by a good margin. Many Thanks,
