Structural Survey (Inspection)

A structural survey is a detailed assessment of a building’s structural condition, carried out by a qualified structural engineer. The inspection typically includes a visual examination of key structural elements such as foundations, walls, floors, roofs, beams, columns, and load-bearing components. It identifies signs of movement, cracking, settlement, moisture-related damage, corrosion, or structural alterations that may affect safety or performance. Where required, the engineer assesses previous modifications and compliance with relevant standards. The survey concludes with a clear written report outlining findings, potential risks, and practical recommendations for repairs, monitoring, or further investigation.

We are very grateful to Nasrin for her professional and dedicated support. After two difficult years trying to obtain council approval due to problems with our house design and building work, she helped us secure approval in just four to five months. She was extremely proactive, caring, and committed throughout the process, giving us real peace of mind. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and professional structural engineer. Parisa and Ali

I did conversion on my house, and faced significant challenges that the previous architect couldn’t resolve. Nasrin stepped in, worked effectively with building control, and helped me secure the approvals. I’m very grateful for her professional and reliable support and easy to talk to her.

Nasrin at Offset Structures was brilliant to work with. She was very responsive and was able to explain technical details in a simple fashion. When our Home Buying survey flagged a few high risk issues, Nasrin's follow-up structural survey allowed us to understand what was a genuine concern that required action and what were issues we didn't need to lose sleep over.

Nasrin was tenacious in drawing up a structurally sound and pragmatic solution for our residential building project, mindful of cost. Communication was fast and easy via WhatsApp. She seems to really enjoy her work. Highly recommended.

Nasrin at Offset Structures recently conducted an investigation and prepared a structural report for me on a Victorian house where movement had been observed. She was highly responsive and easy to work with, despite me being outside of the UK at the time, and went well beyond what I had initially expected. This including liaising with specialist contractors to obtain opinions and indicative remedial proposals, something that she suggested rather than waiting for me to request. What really stood out was her willingness to combine her technical advice with practical commercial judgement. So as well as answering the questions such as "what has happened here?", and "what are the likely remedial options?", she was also prepared to give an honest view on more nuanced questions such as "what would you do next if you were in my position?". Our discussions were invaluable in helping me decide how to proceed, as much so as the report itself. I also thought her services represented excellent value for money. I would not hesitate to recommend Offset Structures to anybody looking for a pragmatic, knowledgeable and responsive structural engineer.

Nasrin was extremely professional and super responsive and clear throughout the process. We were worried about cracks and potential subsidence pre-purchase and she was able to meticulously diagnose every crack as well as well as determine if any remedial work was needed. She gave us feedback immediately post the inspection and the report was also done within the week. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a structural engineer.

Nasrin was extremely responsive and easy to communicate with from the start. She drew up a thorough report with contractor estimates which detailed the costs associated with remedial work on a property that we were looking to purchase. Nasrin was happy to chat through the report and answer any of our questions. The report was then used as a basis to successfully negotiate the original purchase offer. I would recommend Nasrin and her services.

Nasrin is the best structural engineer that I’ve met in my life. Her work was of the uttermost quality. We hired her for a relative simple project which turned out to be a bit more complex in the end. Nevertheless, she worked tirelessly to bring the project to a good end, always gave very good advice, followed up closely during the whole project and was a pro-active and good communicator. Highly recommend Offset Structures!
