Six Facet Surveys
Six Facet Surveys are essential for gaining a comprehensive understanding of the condition, functionality and compliance of estates, particularly in the healthcare and public sector. Thorough assessments not only ensure that buildings are safe, efficient and fit for purpose, they also drive improved maintenance strategies, optimised resource use and performance gains through better informed investment and management decisions.
