Why Shale Testing?
Assessment of Material
Shale & in-fill testing provides an in-depth evaluation of the material used beneath floors to a property. Identifying any potential issues. This detailed understanding of the nature of infill material is vital for ensuring the structural integrity of a building, safeguarding against potential risks, and preventing future complications with future sale.
Identification of Potential Risks
If a property is affected by or suspected as having deleterious infill beneath the floors, In-fill testing can uncover the potential of this to lead to serious structural damage or issues with mortgage lenders. By detecting these issues early, property owners can take proactive measures to mitigate risks.
Comprehensive Solutions
With SDS Property Solutions, infill testing is more than just a diagnostic tool: it is a pathway to comprehensive solutions. If problems are found, our experience can help you get the issue sorted. Whilst we do not carry out remedial works ourselves (we see this as a conflict of interests) we can guide you through the process of remedial works from getting the right contractor to getting the completed work signed off.

Gary M
First class professional service. SDS carried out a shale survey on my property in connection with a sale. From the start they explained exactly what would happen and quickly organised an appointment. The survey was carried out promptly and cleanly. They always answered calls and queries throughout the process promptly and Craig went the extra mile in pushing through the results. I cannot praise their standards of service highly enough. Highly recommended.

If there was a way of giving a better review, I would! Craig went out of his way and beyond to help me out to test my new house for Shale, he was responsive, helpful and super knowledgeable of how the whole process works. The company overall is a great company and I couldn’t recommend it’s services any more I could possibly stress in this post. Thanks so much again, Craig.
