ABOUT

With 12+ years’ experience in the construction industry I have gained a sound and extensive knowledge base. I am a qualified energy Assessor for SAP, SBEM & EPCs which is especially relevant to building regulations part F1 & F2 (conservation of fuel and power). I have a strong theoretical & practical understanding of Building Regulations and the Technical booklets.​
I have been involved with training on the new Part F & part G Regulations (2012). I can deliver verbal training and PowerPoint presentations to architects, contractors, engineers and other professional bodies to raise awareness and aid in compliance with regulations.  I am well positioned to understand the process of building control & planning applications. Working closely with architects has helped me become involved in the process and develop my expertise. I often aid in the interpretation of building controls’ documents which have been sent out to my clients. My experience on building sites has given me a proficient insight into the full building control inspection process.

(April 2007 – May 2009) I was involved alongside the university of ulster in setting up and monitoring the thermal performance of an insulation product (Actis super 10 multifoil). This proved beneficial in understanding how products are considered acceptable for use in construction.

(Feb. 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 & 2009) I was an exhibitor at the annual self-build show which broadened my experience in sales, marketing & presenting. I gained valuable customer service skills.

(2005 – 2012) I am actively involved with thermal and acoustic product sales to the construction industry. I am experienced in job quotation, sales order processing, accounting & dispatch. isputes. My familiarity with site testing has provided me with an in-depth understanding of how building sites are managed and controlled & has given me the ability to assess and interpret working drawings.  I have been trained & accredited in airtightness testing by the BRE who pioneered the airtightness test standard in the early 1980’s.  From Jan 2005-present I have continued my training in both Northern Ireland and the UK. To date, I have successfully completed over 2500 projects ranging in diversity from domestic, commercial, industrial, educational and medical sector projects. I took lead in consulting and testing the first passive houses built in Northern Ireland. The project consisted of 5 social houses built in Dungannon. Working alongside the contractor (T&A Kernoghan), design team and housing association, a positive outcome was achieved, resulting in the onerous airtightness standard being met. I have acquired a varied range of clients; large contractors, Public Authorities, educational institutions and other high profile contracts.
