    Hi all
    Need some advice please. I am about to sell an apartment in an estate in Kildare which was affected by pyrite. While I have never had issues with the property, I have been advised to get a green cert before I put it on the market. Can anyone advise if this is a costly process and recommend anyone who does this in the Kildare area?
    Thanks

    It is no longer called a Grren cert. A property is now given a risk category from one of the arrroved enegineers on the Engineers Ireland Pyrite register website. The process is a full structural survey by one of the acredited engineers and have geological testing done on the stone infill by company such as IGSL. From the sample testing it can be determined what the active Pyrite levels (if any) are and then it can be determined what the future risk of expansion of the stone infill might be. There are 4 risk levels: No risk, low, medium and high. If the apartmnet is not on the ground floor then there is no risk as there is no stone under the apartmnetr-only another apartment!
