Talk Green

Talk Green is a property surveying company based in the Midlands, providing a comprehensive array of residential and commercial energy and property surveying services across the United Kingdom. The firm marked its 14th anniversary in 2020, demonstrating over a decade of operation in the surveying industry. During this period, Talk Green completed more than 50,000 energy surveys throughout the UK. The company's efforts have assisted numerous homeowners in reducing their carbon emissions (CO2) and, consequently, their property running costs.

Talk Green serves a diverse client base, including a wide range of recognizable UK brands and nationwide landlords. The company offers a suite of residential services designed to support homeowners and landlords. These services include Energy Performance Certificates, which provide an assessment of a property's energy efficiency. Talk Green also provides detailed property floor plans and comprehensive property inventories, which are essential for property management and transactions.

Additionally, the firm conducts professional property photography to support property listings and marketing efforts. Residential clients can also access Legionnaires Risk Assessments, ensuring compliance and safety regarding water systems in their properties. For the commercial sector, Talk Green delivers a distinct set of surveying and auditing services. These encompass Non-Domestic Energy Performance Certificates, which are mandatory for commercial buildings.

The company also produces commercial floor plans and offers commercial photography services. Furthermore, Talk Green conducts Asbestos Surveys, a critical service for identifying and managing asbestos-containing materials in commercial premises. Commercial clients also benefit from Legionnaires Risk Assessments tailored to business properties. The firm's energy auditing capabilities extend to residential, commercial, and public buildings, alongside providing Green Deal services.

The leadership team at Talk Green brings specific expertise to the firm's operations. Gareth Clarke, a director, is recognized as one of the country's early qualified Residential and Commercial Green Deal assessors. He has personally completed over 10,000 energy surveys and was instrumental in developing Talk Green's 'Energy Auditing Solution,' which is specifically aimed at the commercial sector. As part of the company's ongoing development, Mr.

Clarke has secured a 'Civil Aviation Authority Permission for Aerial Works' license (PfAW), qualifying him to operate drones. These drones are utilized with still, video, or thermal imaging equipment for various applications, including bridge and building surveys, cinematography for high-end property sales, and covering sporting events. Steven Rigley, another director, is a fully qualified Residential, Commercial, and Green Deal Assessor with over ten years of experience in the energy surveying industry. Mr.

Rigley is also qualified in WHO04 Risk Assessment for Legionella Control in Water Systems, a City and Guilds accredited qualification, enabling the firm to provide ACoP L8 and fourth edition HSG274 compliant risk assessments for both commercial and domestic buildings. Talk Green's operational focus is broadly on residential and commercial property surveying, encompassing energy assessments, detailed property documentation, and specialized risk assessments. The company's services are not exclusively centered on Purpose-Built Student Accommodation (PBSA). Instead, the firm's expertise and service offerings cater to a wider array of property types and client needs across the UK, from individual homeowners to large commercial entities and nationwide landlords.

The company's comprehensive approach ensures that a diverse range of property surveying requirements can be met with their established experience and qualifications.
