Can you tell whether a Surrey building really contains RAAC?

Yes. We distinguish RAAC from dense concrete and other plank systems using the soffit appearance, joint detail and, where needed, a small sample.

Do you identify RAAC above suspended ceilings in Surrey buildings?

We do. We inspect roof voids through existing hatches or a small number of agreed openings so the structure above the ceiling can be confirmed.

What happens after you identify RAAC in Surrey?

If RAAC is confirmed we recommend a condition assessment and risk assessment. If it is not present, you receive clear evidence so the matter can be closed.

RAAC Identification in Surrey

Across Surrey, accurate RAAC identification settles whether a building contains reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete. RAACScan confirms it county-wide, so owners are neither falsely alarmed nor falsely reassured. Every RAAC survey is carried out in line with the Institution of Structural Engineers' guidance on reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete.
