Condition survey
The challenges facing those who own, operate and occupy buildings have grown
significantly over the years. Developments and restructuring have witnessed
dramatic changes in the method of service provision and the introduction of
competition into many areas such as building management, operation, and
maintenance of building services (M&E) systems.
Coupled with constantly changing legislation has created significantly
increasing complexity, degree of risk, and duty of care obligations.
To help you tackle these challenges, Kelcroft's professional advisory services
helps clients involved in property development, construction and maintenance.
We advise developers, owners, and tenants of both commercial, industrial,
healthcare, institutional, and residential sectors, whilst you focus on
your core business.

If you need to ensure that all reasonable precautions and measures have been
taken, Kelcroft's professional condition surveys, provides you the necessary
peace of mind.
Condition surveys comprise site inspection, regulatory review, and reporting upon the condition of your M&E infrastructure - delivering a comprehensive report covering the condition, operational status, serviceability, and valuation of your existing building services plant and equipment.
Condition surveys can be tailored and structured to suit your precise needs. For example, a common request is the pre-purchase assessment.
Pre-purchase & pre-leasing survey
Kelcroft helps potential buyers and renters make the right choice. We conduct pre-purchase, and pre-leasing condition surveying that would establish the true condition of a particular site before you buy or lease.
Advance awareness of existing defects and deficiencies help you make smart decisions, and might also aid your purchase negotiations.
If you wish to start a restaurant, food factory, or F&B business most probably the biggest obstacle you will face is the lengthy Hong Kong food premise licensing. Perhaps more importantly - will it cost the earth for the premises to comply?

Kelcroft offers the solution - we conduct a condition survey of the premises (which does not cost the earth) before you sign the contract, determining the suitability or otherwise for a licensed business.
Last February Kelcroft conducted a condition survey for a potential restaurant
in the SoHo area of Hong Kong. Our survey revealed problems, and our expert
advice saved the client wasting precious time and money on a unsuitable
premises.
