PQS Associates have been operating and developing a new specialist building consultancy providing a wide range of building consultancy services, and acting as a general practitioner for specific building problems.
Based in St. Albans, and covering London and the South East principally,
we act as a catalyst in stimulating the development of new types of services and concepts.
PQS Associates bring together years of experience gained since 1974, including 4 years in mainstream Civil and Structural engineering, 4 years in Loss Adjusting and Building Insurance, plus Project Management mainly in the Catering and Food industries, Expert Witness work, SAP Energy reports and a wealth of experience gained in residential and commercial surveys. This also includes 4 years experience of working on the Jubilee Line Extension Project team in Central London, and voluntary work as part of the award winning Community Rail Partnership on the Abbey Line in St. Albans since 2004.
Our services include
Traditional surveying services:
- Valuations for mortgage and insurance purposes
- RICS Homebuyer and Building Survey reports (normally undertaken via an intermediary)
- Specialised Building Consultancy services, including Schedules of Condition, Party Walls, and Building Engineers reports.
- Buildings Insurance claims
- Specialist damp surveys
- Schedules of Dilapidations
- Probate surveys
- Planned Maintenance
- Fire and Insurance valuations
- Specialist reports.
Planning and Development work:
- Feasibility studies
- Sketch schemes and details
- Measured surveys
- Optimising existing uses
- Development planning
- Community Rail Partnership and station adoption work.
Our aim is to provide a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship with existing larger groups and organisations lacking specialist skills in certain areas, by providing specialist add-on services where these cannot be provided economically in-house. Longer term we also aim to develop new service concepts for the future and build upon our initial successes.
If you have any questions or would like to discuss a potential or specific project in more detail, then please do not hesitate to contact us.

Review by Damien
on 8th January 2024
"PQS Associates was recommended to help us assess damage caused by sub-quality building works. Paul was professional and efficient. A detailed defects analysis report with photos was completed and delivered to us the same day. Paul also gave excellent advise about pursuing the builder for damages, which we did - and were successful. The report formed the cornerstone of our claim. We can't thank him enough."

"Paul was able to come to our home at short notice to assess damage caused by building works. He thoroughly reviewed the issues and was able to provide advice about our options for resolving them. He provided the report very quickly and his fee was fair."

"Very pleased with the service that Paul supplied. On time for our appointment, very professional and knowledgeable. Paul sent pictures that evening of the survey carried out that day and on payment sent the full report. The report was very thorough and informative. I highly recommend PQS Associates services."
