CLERK OF WORKS

Understanding Your Problems

You have appointed a disaster restoration contractor and they are hard at work cleaning your property and contents. They appear to be doing a good job, but how would you know if they weren’t? How do you know if something has been properly decontaminated? How do you know if the building has been dried sufficiently? Who can you turn to for informed, independent and impartial advice?

Responding to Your Needs

DFA is available for just such situations. We provide qualified on-site personnel, that are fully conversant with every aspect of disaster restoration, that can act as your ‘eyes-and-ears’.

Our role is to check on progress, sign-off completed work and most importantly ensure that the correct level of decontamination/drying etc. has been achieved. On smaller jobs this usually entails visiting on a weekly basis. On larger/fast track jobs a permanent site presence is usually necessary to ensure recovery timetable compliance and to enable immediate contractor conflict resolution. In a clerk of works role DFA personnel ensure that the restoration contractor complies with all relevant Health & Safety and Environmental legislation, agrees any necessary work variations and at the end of the job they sign-off the contractor’s invoices thus leaving you free to concentrate on recovering your business activity.
