Our story
From our humble beginnings in 1992, when we recognised the need for an independent engineering inspection specialist, we rapidly built the business by delivering a professional, trouble free, responsive and competitive service from highly qualified and experienced engineers.
Based in Lancashire, we serve many parts of the UK via our extensive network of engineers.
Our mission
We provide professional, reliable and hassle free engineering inspection services, creating trust and building long term relationships.
Our vision
To be the UK’s leading independent provider of engineering inspection services, protecting people and businesses.
Our accreditations
We are an associate member of the Safety Assessment Federation (SAFed), an independent trade association concerned with safety. As members of this respected organisation, we keep at the forefront of developments in the industry, drawing on their advice, guidance, information and experience to keep our services current and competitive.
In all cases, our team provides a fast, efficient and expert service to help you fulfil your legal obligations by inspecting all appropriate plant and machinery within the appropriate timescales. Our specialists advise on the type of inspections required and the best way to undertake the work, taking account of maintenance and shutdown periods to minimise downtime and inconvenience. We also work hard to deliver an efficient and well co-ordinated service, so you’re not kept waiting and remain fully informed throughout.
You can’t leave anything to chance when it comes to inspecting engineering plant and equipment, but you can leave it to Thurra.

We appreciate the efficiency and flexibility of their inspectors, who go out of their way to accommodate inspections around our busy work schedule. The office staff are also very helpful and are quick to turn around any request. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.
Director
Having used them for over ten years, I can confirm that they not only offer a first class service for our clients at extremely competitive prices, but also turn around quotations usually within a few minutes and always issue documentation in a timely fashion. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
Liverpool-headquartered property management business
We have a long history of using their specialist skills. We have always found them to be prompt in their attendance and professional in their approach and in dealings with both our staff and building users, keeping both management and staff fully informed of their actions and findings, a policy which allows us to manage our clients’ property in the most effective manner.

We have worked closely with them for several years and the service we have benefited from has been second to none.
