“Give yourself and your clients peace
of mind”
Let our engineering experts identify structural defects in your hotel, in your building or in your villa. We spot defects, and uncover their causes to target repair, and control your expenses.
We are a group of civil engineers and radiologists of concrete, specialized in the analysis of non-destructive data. We produce data, and mapping for aging structures, buildings, and infrastructure across Switzerland.
Main services
Pool
Without proper maintenance, every pool can experience water leaking, cracking or twisting of the pool shell, structural cracking, and other issues from a pool which may result in costly repairs or potential consequential damages such as lost revenue, complaints/claims, reputation.
Furthermore, rooftop swimming pools, or above the parking, and other elevated water structures could endanger life or property if a special set of considerations are not thoroughly incorporated in the design and construction.
We are happy to share with you our documentation filled with case study. Click the button below to contact us for more details.
Parking
The car park is considered a key asset that every property owner needs to properly maintain and care for. It provides a significant impact on commercial businesses, hotels, condominiums, and educational campuses. Without any proper maintenance, there’s a risk of closure for heavy repairs and if not handled properly it could lead to collapse which could result in catastrophic consequences.
House Doctors can identify the structural defects, and ensure that your parking structures are properly inspected and maintained. With our reports, our clients are able to cultivate effective decision-making, prepare a financial mechanism to fund routine structural assessments, and essential maintenance to minimise the risk of structural failure.
Other areas of experience
Besides pool and parking, House Doctors have vast experience in analysing structure thickness, utility locating, conformity verification, humidity and ,cracks defects locating for private property owners. We provide our clients with advanced visualisation techniques to help see clearly not only the existing problems but also the projected problems which might occur in the future.
Our experts of 10-year long experience of know-how, are as well dedicated to the service of infrastructure especially bridge and tunnel inspection. Check out our brother company.
Our expertise
Water or humidity break-in
Water can infiltrate your structure from leaking pipes or waterproofing. It can severely damage your structure if not treated properly. Consequently, leads to some significant problems ,and repair costs could be out of control in some scenarios. House Doctors can locate the leak, and guide the repair.
We can detect:
A water leak or any chemical contaminant for example de-icing salts.
Structural defects
Defects can start within a structure without being noticed for months. Any signs of cracking should always be inspected as they are generally providing indications that there is an underlying problem that needs attention. Though movement in the building structure and foundation is disturbing, you should know the origin of the problem before taking any action. With our services and report, House Doctors allow our clients to see, and understand the steak of the problem.
We can detect:
Cracks, voids, debonding, and failures of reinforcement.
Hidden Structures
A hidden structure can be as simple as a rebar layer and as complex as an old masonry structure, it needs to be identified and measured. With our services, you will be able to locate and measure these hidden objects on floors, ground or within walls.
We can detect: Electric cables, water pipes, concrete elements and masonry structures.
Ageing building
One of the biggest problems of the ageing building is its exterior and shell. The frequent problems include mitigating leaks and water pooling. Ageing building is encountering normal wear-and-tear. However, the deterioration is a slow process that offsets over time. Though it means clients have time to assess and plan for upgrades before the repair cost spirals out of control, which interrupts operations, an effective inspection should be carried out in time.
We can detect: Early signs of degradation, allowing us to undertake surveys evaluating the speed of degradation and plan when an intervention is appropriate.
