Alpina Partners-backed Assent completed the acquisition of Clarke Banks.

Alpina Partners-backed Assent, a multi-licence, national, private Building Control Approved Inspector, completed the acquisition of Clarke Banks, a specialist fire engineering and building control Approved Inspector. Financial terms were not disclosed. “We have been actively looking to expand our suite of services in Assent, so it was important to us that the business we acquired would offer benefits to both parties, not simply grow the number of surveyors we could offer. Sam and Adam have built an incredibly successful business that provides complementary services to those offered by our existing businesses. The enthusiasm for the work that they do is second to none and we are delighted to be welcoming them to the Assent group of businesses,” Iain Thomson, Assent CEO.
