Quinquennial Report
5 Year Survey
The Care of Churches and Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction Measure 1991 ‘make provision as to the care of churches and the lands and articles appertaining thereto and of documents of historic interest to the Church of England’.
Part of the measure is to ensure that churches (or buildings for ecclesiastical use) are surveyed so they are maintained in a good state of repair and do not breach changing health and safety matters and other Statutory legislation.
We are well-versed with the carrying out of Quinquennial surveys and reporting and have a strong client base with Churches and Diocese directly.
Our professional approach to the surveys captures the differences in sympathetic aging and appreciation to any listed status, against deterioration through wear, tear and failure of materials / components.
Our reports prioritise the necessary work required and can include budget costs to assist in the planning and expenditure in the upkeep and preservation of buildings between surveys.
This type of survey is generally carried out at a similar time to a Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) of the building. The findings of an FRA may have impact in the output (work and cost) of the Quinquennial survey.
