Where I work in Berkshire
Bracknell, Ascot, Wokingham, Reading, Windsor, Maidenhead and Slough are the quickest from Surrey. Newbury, Thatcham and Hungerford are covered on weekly arrangements and for audits.
On the route
East Berkshire runs on from the Surrey route, so new sites there usually go in within days. Berkshire sites often share a visit with Camberley, Woking and the north Hampshire border.
Why Berkshire contractors use an independent inspector
A weekly inspection record has to show the inspection happened at intervals of no more than seven days, by a competent person, with the eight particulars Schedule 7 requires in the report. On a busy commercial programme in Reading or Slough the inspection itself usually happens; the record is what slips. A fixed weekly round with a named independent inspector means the date, the verdict and the signature are there every week, and the summary email tells the site manager what to fix before anyone reads the PDF.
"The inspection usually happens. The record is what goes missing."
What you get
- A Schedule 7 compliant report with captioned photos, a clear verdict and defects carried forward, within 24 hours
- A short summary email of the actions that matter
- One named inspector on every visit
