BREEAM Assessment Services

Achieve sustainable building certification and enhance environmental performance with Lucion’s BREEAM assessment, advisory, and project management services. Our licensed assessors help optimise energy efficiency, water conservation, and more to meet your sustainability goals.

As the world’s leading environmental assessment method for sustainable buildings, BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) quantifies the environmental performance of new and existing buildings. Lucion’s BREEAM services support clients in achieving sustainable building certification and improving the environmental performance of their projects.

Our BREEAM services include:

BREEAM Assessment

Our team of licensed BREEAM assessors and sustainability experts provides comprehensive assessment services throughout the design, construction, and post-construction stages. We help identify and implement sustainable design strategies, manage the assessment process, and gather evidence to demonstrate compliance with BREEAM criteria.

BREEAM Site Appraisal

We conduct desktop due-diligence on your sites to highlight potential risks and opportunities, helping to minimise additional design and construction costs incurred by the BREEAM process. Our appraisals ensure your project starts on the right foot.

Real Estate Sustainability Due-Diligence

Our detailed review of BREEAM certification allows property investors to fully assess the ‘green’ credentials of real estate. We go beyond the rating to provide insights into the building’s specific sustainability strengths and areas for improvement.

BREEAM Green Leases

We advise commercial landlords and tenants on the implications of BREEAM ‘Green Leases’ or ‘green clauses’ of tenancy agreements for new developments, fit-outs, and refurbishments. Our expertise helps align sustainability objectives between parties.

BREEAM In-Use Auditing

We work with landlords and facilities managers to assess, benchmark, and enhance existing property stock on an individual or portfolio-wide scale. Our audits identify opportunities for operational improvements and sustainability upgrades.

BREEAM Ecology

Our ecology services assess the current ecological value of sites, minimise impacts during site preparation and construction, and enhance biodiversity post-construction. We also prepare Habitat and Landscape Management Plans and act as Ecological Clerk of Works.

BREEAM Acoustics

Our acoustics team ensures your project meets BREEAM criteria related to noise control, sound insulation, and indoor acoustic comfort. We provide assessment, design advice, and testing services to optimise the acoustic performance of your building.

Partner with Lucion to navigate the BREEAM certification process, achieve your sustainability goals, and enhance the environmental performance and value of your buildings.

Lucion Delta-Simons Ltd did a great job getting to grips quickly with the project and successfully assisting us in achieving the BREEAM very good rating, thereby removing this potentially significant obstacle to the sale of the building. I will certainly come back to Delta-Simons for BREEAM related advice in the future.
