At PRC Certificates Ltd, we specialise in helping property owners, purchasers, and industry professionals uncover essential background information on PRC (Precast Reinforced Concrete) properties — particularly where original documentation is missing, incomplete, or unclear.
We are a national company, covering all counties in England, Wales, and most of Scotland.
What We Offer
- Digital & Paper Archive Searches
We search a wide range of online and technical databases to trace evidence of past repairs, mortgage surveys, and PRC repair schemes. - Historical Report Recovery
Where available, we locate and assess previously issued structural reports, engineering statements, or photographic evidence of PRC works. - Private and Commercial Record Checks
As many local authorities no longer retain detailed records on PRC properties, we also liaise with independent engineers, contractors, and archives to determine if approved repair methods were used. - Property Type Identification
Identifying the specific construction type is essential. Each PRC variant — such as Airey, Boot, Cornish, Unity, Woolaway, Smith, Stent, Tarran, Doran, Gregory, Newland, Orlit, Parkinson, Hawkesley, Wates, or Reema — requires a particular repair approach to meet certification and mortgage requirements.
We also provide advice on non-PRC and non-traditional construction types, which are not included on the Government’s Defective List but may still raise lender concerns. - Intrusive Inspection Planning
If documentation is unavailable or insufficient, we can advise on and coordinate intrusive inspections to confirm whether a full, licensed repair has been carried out. - Missing Certificate Investigations
If a PRC Certificate cannot be located, we investigate whether qualifying repair work was previously carried out to a certifiable standard. Where appropriate, we guide you through the steps required to obtain new certification based on available evidence or additional inspection.
Why It’s Important
- Allows you to proceed confidently with purchases, sales, or refinancing.
- Helps establish whether a property qualifies for certification or needs additional work.
- Supports mortgage lenders, solicitors, and advisers with essential documentation and compliance evidence.
