WHY USE STROMA TECH?For Environmental Consultancy

We provide a nationally-available package of environmental assessments and surveys, including flood risk, ecological, contamination, noise and more.

For Code, BREEAM, HQM & CEEQUALWe advise how best to attain the required rating. We don’t just mechanically assess the project, but provide real value with guidance to achieve cost effective and low risk compliance. We keep clients fullyinformed using management software tools (for example Tracker Plus for BREEAM) and through conventional communication methods.

Our BREEAM accredited professionals can help to obtain additional credits and provide key benefits into the assessment process, as well as having assessors qualified and experienced in the new BREEAM domestic refurbishment category.

For Energy Assessment (SAP, SBEM, DSM, etc.)

Stroma Tech is an acknowledged expert in energy assessment. Our sister company, Stroma Certification, is a leading provider of software, training and certification in these subjects and this has undoubtedly influenced us.

Our domestic assessors (SAP) are celebrated for their efficiency and consultative approach. Our non-domestic team has a range of capabilities such as dynamic simulation modelling (DSM), thermal bridging analysis and daylight assessment as required on the most challenging projects.

For Air Tightness and Acoustic Compliance

Stroma Tech is one of the UK’s pre-eminent providers of consultancy and testing for air-tightness.

We employ one of the UK’s largest teams of air-tightness testers and advisors, with a formidable level of collective experience. We provide fast, cost-effective testing of buildings, compartments, fire-protected rooms, plenums, ducts and more. Few can compare with our ability to advise on design and construction approaches to achieve compliant results.

Our team has extensive experience of acoustic design, from separating walls and floors in residential developments to acoustically sensitive rooms in a commercial environment, including education, healthcare and offices. We use environmental and sound insulation modelling software to predict environmental noise, plant noise and internal acoustic environment.

We carry out all aspects of acoustic testing and environmental noise measurements for developments of all conceivable sizes and types, for compliance with Part E, BREEAM, BB93, HTM 08-01, NPPF and more.
