Our SAP assessors are celebrated for their efficiency and consultative approach, while our SBEM assessors have a range of capabilities such as dynamic simulation modellers (DSM Level 5), thermal bridging analysis, overheating analysis and more, as required on the most challenging non-domestic and mixed-use projects.

…For Environmental ConsultancyWe provide a nationally-available package of environmental assessments and surveys, including flood risk, ecological, contamination, noise and more.

…For Code, BREEAM, CEEQUAL and Passivhaus AssessmentsWe advise how best to attain the required rating. We don’t just mechanically assess the project, but provide real value with guidance to achieve cost effective and low risk compliance. We keep clients fully informed using management software tools (for example Tracker Plus for BREEAM) and through conventional communication methods.

Stroma has qualified BREEAM Accredited Professionals who can help to obtain additional credits and provide key benefits into the assessment process, as well as having assessors qualified and experienced in the new BREEAM Domestic Refurbishment category.
