Cornerstone Management Services Ltd

Cornerstone Management Services Ltd was founded in 2009 by three experienced property damage professionals looking to uphold change in the sector with defined transparency of reported incidents.

With demonstrable transparency of property damage upholding minimal disruption and cost-effectiveness, in a short space of time Cornerstone Management Services Ltd’s detailed reporting protocol led to enquiries from typically Social Housing Landlords and NHBC seeking root cause analysis of reported structural and atmospheric issues.

Our data indicates 91% of all surveyed properties reported to be suffering damp, condensation and mould were structurally dry and hence, were experiencing atmospheric management-related issues. That said, the emphasis remained on providing clear supporting guidance for root causes and longer term solutions.

Why Cornerstone?

As an independent expert surveying company, we actively demonstrate clarity with likely root causes alongside recommendations and guidance for a cost effective, better decision making solution.

How is this reported?

Embedded transparent reporting delivers root cause analysis based on a host of data acquired at the time of a survey and, embraces the structural geographical location and orientation since these aspects can also play a part with defining and upholding property health.

Typical outcomes?

In the absence of blame, we are able to construct a report with open findings and recommendations based on a host of inputs upholding the fact mould is a symptom of a problem and has a number of attributes linked to its formation.

Cornerstone also recognise the use of moisture meters is a qualifiable process hence, it requires supporting criteria, be it visual or indeed quantifiable, to rubber-stamp the findings.

A number of supporting applications have been developed by Cornerstone with a drive to share knowledge for timely resolutions.

A unique Property MOT® surveying platform determines the health of a structure and its Ventilation Adequacy aligned to all current Structural Health Compliance regulations.

Cornerstone are implementing a futuristic Property Health Application accessible by anyone seeking immediate assistance with damp, condensation and mould in their homes and workplaces.

The 24/7 guidance framework upholds likely key reasons and elements to try in advance of a complaint being made through to, complex issues being requested of Cornerstone as a last resort.

This ‘proactive’ sought-after process will aid the net zero journey as we seek to improve the health of our myriad of constructions, ages, periods and styled buildings for the future alongside a clear understanding of structural behaviour and occupancy, resulting in any broad-brush changes being made with…..confidence.
