Professional Standards Audit

Prove how your building company actually operates.

The UK government is changing how domestic building work is regulated. We help reputable contractors get their procedures, records and documentation ready for those changes, independently of any government scheme.

Homeowners, insurers and lenders increasingly expect evidence rather than assurances. We review how your business actually operates, not how a policy folder says it does, and identify the gaps that create disputes, delays and unpaid invoices.

You get a scored report against The Builder Standard 2026, prioritised actions and the documents needed to close each gap. If anything is missing, we help you compile the outstanding documentation or process so you are not left guessing.

What you get

£295

An independent evidence-based review across the five pillars, a written scored report and a prioritised plan, normally within five working days.
