I highly recommend Mica Express
I highly recommend Mica Express! Not a pleasant test, to have to get done but Kaine made it as pain-free as possible. A clear and true time line was given and any questions answered promptly.
Thank you again Kaine!
Best Mica testing company
From start to finish, Kaines services were swift, extremely professional, he explained everything in detail.Report came back quicker than anticipated, and in great detail. If you are looking to get your house tested, Mica Express is the best. Thank you very much.

A very professional and knowledgeable company, great service from start to finish, Kaine is great to work with nothing is a bother to him, I highly recommend…. Kaine is very well educated on these matters.
Report was exactly what we needed for…
Report was exactly what we needed for our buyers - easy to understand and a clear result. Price was reasonable and the timescale was shorter than anticipated. Communication was great too.
Excellent and professional service
Mica Express Ltd provide a superb service. I needed tests carried out quickly for a house I was bidding on. Kaine reached out and arranged a site visit even though being busy with other jobs and the travel distance being far. The test was scheduled for a week later and the results came back within the timelines set out.
Kaine is very professional and approachable. I highly recommend him and Mica Express Ltd.

I can highly recommend Mica Express,a very professional service, a very detailed report and a very neat and clean survey carried out, great communication and a prompt service
Many thanks Kaine
Great service tailored to my needs.
As a Defective Concrete Block homeowner who had just demolished our house. I was delighted when Kaine proposed a package that would test both the new Concrete Foundations & blocks for all deleterious materials, as we were worried that we could fall victim to same lack of standards in quarries in Ireland (once bitten twice as shy).
After coring being completed (about a week after making the call), the cores (from the foundations and block stockpiles onsite) were readied for dispatch to the Lab.
Kaine was true to form regarding the results timeframe and a timely msg to say all was clear just before Bison slabs were due to be fitted left us feeling such relief.
One week later and a detailed Chartered Engineer & Geologist report was forwarded which scientifically confirmed that our house will be good for generations to come.
A phonecall was then arranged to discuss the report incase anything was unclear and this concludes a great experience for us as customers of MicaExpress.
I highly recommend Kaine no matter what your circumstances are re: testing for deleterious materials in concrete, A comprehensive & friendly service from start to finish.

A highly professional and efficient service.
Mica Express is a highly professional company, offering great customer support. The tests were carried out promptly, results returned within the timeframe promised and the overview of the report, given by Kaine afterwards, was extremely clear and helpful. This was just what we needed to be able to make a confident and informed decision about whether to proceed with our house purchase. We have no doubts at all about recommending this excellent service.
Excellent Service
Kaine was very helpful and knowledgeable and able to help me decide on the right product for my needs. The report was exceptionally detailed yet easy to follow. Thanks again for all your help.
Professional service with detailed consideration and excellent knowlege of the subject
We asked Kaine to carry out further testing on our home, and to provide additional support for the appeals process in a tight time limit. He delivered everything we hoped for. His attention to detail, interest and technical knowledge in this specialised field was excellent. Would definitely use him again in future and would highly recommend him.
Absolutely first class service…
We needed a Mica test done for a house we were selling in Donegal. After looking around and asking for recommendations we settled on Mica Express, and I am very glad we did.
The company website is very informative and explains what services are available, what each entails, how long it takes and how much it costs. So, having worked out what we thought we needed, we called Kaine and he talked us through everything and confirmed the package we should go for. The process to book the sampling was easy and efficient and the site visit was all done within 2 weeks of our initial contact, which suited our timescale. On the day, Kaine and a colleague arrived as arranged and set about extracting the core samples and patching up where they had been working. So far, so good. They labelled everything and completed their paperwork ensuring everything was logged and properly audited.
The estimated timescale for results was 6-8 weeks and they arrived within that time. The report provided was very comprehensive from the laboratory in London that conducted the analysis and Kaine's associated interpretation, explanation and conclusions. He also made himself available to explain anything that we were unsure about.
Very happy to recommend Mica Express, they were absolutely first class in every way. Thank you Kaine and his team.
Dr Kane Lynch is a true professional…
Dr Kane Lynch is a true professional and our experience with Mica Express was exceptionally great. I recommend Kane and Mica Express.
Would thoroughly recommend
Would thoroughly recommend mica express. We had a defective block test done by them prior to purchasing a property. Kaine was very helpful and responded to all my questions with patience, clear explanations and advice and the report was very comprehensive.
We were so satisfied with the service
We were so satisfied with the service. Kaine discussed the process clearly and with patience to my parents. A highly professional team. We were relieved that the final report was explained in an understandable way technically and the positive conclusion clear and concise. Thank you so much Mica Express!
Mica Express - Quick Professional Service
Mica Express is definitely that I messaged Kaine at the beginning of last week about a BCA he did the assessment on Friday and we had the report on Monday. Really quick and efficient. Kaine was very professional and knew all about the defective concrete blocks crisis in Donegal from family experience. He explained the Building Condition Assessment process to us and carried out his work efficiently without intrusion. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing a BCA.
Excellent Service
We contacted Kaine to advise us on a block test that the seller of a property we were interested in buying had done. Kaine couldn’t have been anymore helpful going through the lengthy report with us and with his expertise and knowledge gave us such a better understanding of the details within the report. Speaking with him definitely helped us decide how we were going to move forward with the property. I would highly recommend his service!
First class service
First class service, communication and level of detail from mica express. I cannot recommend Kaine and mica express highly enough if you need this type of work carried out. Thanks again for all your help and advice.
