The Butler & Young portfolio that was bought by French firm Socotec two years ago includes Butler & Young Approved Inspectors, Butler & Young Consultants and Trenton Fire.
Butler & Young Approved Inspectors now becomes Socotec Building Control, remaining a separate legal entity with its own identity for regulatory compliance. Butler & Young Consultants and Trenton Fire move under the Socotec UK umbrella.
Chris Wallis, managing director of building control and fire safety for Socotec UK, said: “The adoption of the Socotec brand allows us to capitalise on the combined services offered by the group to the benefit of all our clients, providing a breadth of complementary services unmatched by our competitors, while at the same time maintaining the independence of our approved inspector service.”
