happy clients

I have reviewed many forensic engineering reports provided by Forme Consulting Engineers to either base a claim acceptance decision on or for resolution of issues associated with large loss building damage claims.

I have always found the reports provided by Forme Consulting Engineers to be very detailed and of a high standard. Further to this, I have found senior structural engineer Brendan Lowther to be very professional in his approach, always willing to go the extra distance to provide further assistance where necessary, provide solutions and where possible, achieve the best possible outcome for all parties involved.

I have personally utilised Brendan Lowther from Forme Consulting Engineers on numerous matters involving large commercial claims and also many matters involving foundation distress and movement to domestic residences, commercial structures, retaining walls and pools. I have found Mr Lowther’s expertise in this particular area to be excellent, his reports to be thorough and concise and overall his performance and service to be of an excellent standard. I have recommended him to many other colleagues who have reported that they are similarly impressed.

I would have no hesitation to put forward Mr Lowther of Forme Consulting Engineers as a suitable expert in the inspection and reporting on any Building or Engineering related matter. Based on my own experience, I certainly consider Forme Consulting Engineers as experts in the field of foundation movement, building distress and subsidence.
