Construction, retrofit & residential surveying
Alex Dean.
Qualified judgement.
A construction and retrofit professional bringing building knowledge, quality assurance and a resident-centred approach to every survey and project.
Professional profile
Building expertise focused on better residential outcomes.
I’m Alex Dean. My background combines construction, commercial management, domestic energy assessment, retrofit coordination and building investigation.
I have extensive experience across private residential properties, private-sector landlords, registered social landlord portfolios, local-authority programmes and domestic retrofit delivery. This includes managing residential developments valued above £5 million and leading technical and quality-assurance activity across large housing programmes.
That breadth matters: damp, mould, energy performance, ventilation, workmanship and resident experience rarely sit in isolation. I approach each instruction by understanding the whole building, establishing the evidence and communicating practical next steps clearly.
