Quantity surveying and claims support for recycling centres, materials recovery and waste-processing facilities.
Waste and recycling construction combines reception, storage and handling areas with process equipment and associated infrastructure. Civil works, buildings and installation may be separately procured. The account needs to distinguish the facility’s construction from its operating activities.
Moving a sorting line can change pits, supports and maintenance access after the building contractor has committed the civils.
We compare vendor data with the priced building and installation packages. The valuation follows each affected interface, separating additional construction, omitted work and substantiated alterations.
Storage arrangements and the materials handled can influence firewater, drainage and containment requirements. Changes issued by the responsible specialists may affect external works as well as the processing building.
We check the specialist requirements against the actual storage and processing arrangement used for pricing. A revision may affect tanks, drainage, external works and controls as well as the building itself. The valuation follows those connected changes and credits superseded allowances; the responsible technical team determines what protection is required.
The trial waste stream matters. Different contamination or unavailable feed can make an acceptance trial unrepresentative of the agreed test.
We compare the recorded input and test conditions with the contract, distinguishing supplier obligations from changed inputs and additional trials.
A live facility may need temporary storage, diverted vehicle routes and phased processing capacity. Changed releases can add material handling, temporary works and repeated mobilisation.
We identify the temporary storage and vehicle arrangements already allowed for, then assess actual departures from the agreed releases. Extra handling remains separate from permanent construction quantities so it can be checked on its own evidence.
