Building Services Engineering

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service GmbH has decades of experience and offers expert support in managing this task. Interdisciplinary subjects are addressed jointly by experts from the fields of building services, electrical, construction, process and environmental engineering – an interdisciplinary approach which is a prerequisite for comprehensive advice and qualified services.
Expert consulting services reduce follow-up costs

Almost 70% of defects can be traced back to planning and installation. Only a few are due to the chosen materials or other reasons. Involving an experienced partner in the installation of building services systems from the start thus not only guarantees costeffectiveness and quality, but also contributes significantly to avoiding unnecessary unplanned costs later on.

TÜV SÜD Industrie Service offers a comprehensive range of services in the field of building services engineering. Working in teams, our experts are able to solve even the most complex interdisciplinary problems. As third-party expert organisation with longstanding experience we can advise you on all issues related to the safety and cost-effectiveness of building services and fire safety installations.
