The Pyrite Resolution Board is responsible for the implementation of the pyrite remediation scheme. On receipt of a valid on-line application accompanied by a Building Condition Assessment with a damage rating of 2, the Board will arrange for the appropriate testing to be carried out at no cost to the homeowner.
The cost of the Building Condition Assessment will be recouped to the homeowner, subject to a maximum of €500, on confirmation by testing of significant damage attributable to pyritic heave. Building Condition Assessments should be carried out by competent professionals (Engineer, Architect or Building Surveyor) who have the necessary competency and experience to undertake this work. Engineers Ireland has established a register for Building Condition Assessors who have undertaken
appropriate Continuing Professional Development training in this area.
