What buildings in Dorchester need
Commercial property in Dorchester includes farm and rural business conversions, managed residential blocks and HMOs and high-street shops and offices above. Each has different hours, plant and statutory duties, so the scope is set after we have walked the site.
In Dorchester, plant ages at different rates across older and newer buildings, so we survey every asset rather than assume a standard list.
What planned preventative maintenance covers
Planned preventative maintenance (PPM) is a scheduled programme of inspections, servicing and statutory tests for a building's plant and systems, carried out before things fail. We build the PPM calendar from an asset register, visit on a fixed cycle and hand back certificates and reports after every visit.
- Annual lifecycle summary to help plan capital spend
