Director & Non-Domestic Energy Assessor
Richard leads CEA-LTD and personally handles every instruction, from the first site visit through to the certificate landing on the national register. His background in building surveying, combined with Elmhurst accreditation as a Non-Domestic Energy Assessor, means assessments are grounded in a genuine understanding of how commercial buildings are built and used — not just how they're modelled.
Richard holds Level 5 accreditation, qualifying him to assess commercial buildings using Dynamic Simulation Modelling (DSM) — the methodology required for more complex, air-conditioned and mechanically ventilated properties that fall outside standard Level 3/4 assessments. This covers the full range of commercial building types: offices, retail units, industrial units, warehouses and manufacturing premises, including multi-site portfolio instructions.
CEA-LTD works with landlords, letting and managing agents, solicitors and building owners across the North West who need certification they can rely on for a transaction, a compliance deadline, or a wider improvement programme.
