Assessed. Remediated.
Fully Certified in a Single Visit.
Four reasons property professionals across London choose HSE Property Checks over separate contractors.
We Find It, Fix It and Certificate It
Most compliance companies inspect, hand you a list of defects and walk away. We carry out remedial works on the same visit where possible, and issue every certificate you need.
Your Entire Compliance Record in One Place
Every report, certificate, photograph and action plan is stored in your digital compliance file, organised, date-stamped, and always accessible.
The Right Qualifications for Every Service We Offer
Every service is delivered by a specialist, not a generalist. The right qualification for the right job, every time.
Fixed Fee Against a Defined Scope
Every engagement begins with a written, fixed-fee proposal valid for thirty days. Our fees are tied to a defined deliverable rather than time on site, and any variation in scope is documented and approved before further work proceeds.
Real Projects. Real Results.
From single Victorian terraces to national charity portfolios, here's how we've helped property owners and managers achieve full compliance.
Victorian Terrace, Fire Safety for International Sale
A homeowner needed a full fire risk assessment and remedial works completed before an international buyer's deadline. We coordinated across time zones, delivered the FRA, carried out all remediation, and issued certificates, keeping the sale on track.
National Women's Charity, 32 Sites, 200+ Doors
A major national charity needed fire door inspections and replacements across 32 sites. We managed the entire programme, scheduling around sensitive residential environments, replacing over 200 non-compliant doors, and delivering full documentation to the charity's compliance team.
High-End Battersea Development, 275 Doors
A high-end residential developer in Battersea required a full fire door inspection and remediation programme across 275 doors in a single project. We completed the entire scope, inspection, defect reporting, and remedial works, within the developer's construction timeline.
HMO Portfolio, Article 4 Deadline Compliance
A London HMO landlord was facing an Article 4 Direction deadline and needed full compliance documentation for council licensing. We delivered the complete package, fire risk assessment, fire door inspection, emergency lighting, and all certificates, ahead of the deadline.
