To make a Pre Reinforced Concrete (PRC) house mortgagable you will need to have a PRC Licensed Repair carried out. PRC Licensed Repairs were approved in the mid eighties for houses desiginated at defective under the 1985 housing act.

Airey House Repairs
An Airey house has a concrete panels on the exterior and behind the concrete panels are vertical concrete posts with a steel support in the middle, over a period of time the steel support inside the concrete posts on some houses started to corrode thus the house potentially losing its structural integrity.
In the early eighties local authorities started to repair their stock of Airey houses, many local authorities used the Halifax approved scheme which fundamentally was the repair to the three outer walls. Either removing the concrete posts and replacing with block and brick or putting block work between the posts taking the load from the post on to the new block and brick work.
In 1985 following the introduction of PRC Homes Ltd, a company set up to approve license repair schemes for houses made from Pre Reinforced Concrete, the license approved repair scheme for an Airey house had to also include the removal of the posts in the spine/party wall.
Many local authorities did not see the need to complete works to the spine/party wall and carried on using the Halifax approved scheme.
Retrospective Completion Certificates can be issued for this repair however not all lenders recognise this repair system.

Retrospective PRC Certificates
If you are selling or looking to buy a property which was originaly constructed from pre reinforced concrete and has had repair work carried out the mortgage lender will insist on seeing a PRC Completion Certificate. Many of these certificates over the years have been lost, missed place and on some occasions never issued. Mortgage lenders recognize this and for this reason they are happy to accept Retrospective PRC Completion Certificate.
Retrospective PRC Completion Certificates are an after works certificate for Pre Reinforced Concrete properties which have had an approriate PRC Homes Ltd licensed repair carried out.
There are a number of websites offering Retrospective PRC Completion Certificates and it can be quite confusing, I would suggest asking these firms for contact numbers of estate agents they have dealt with in the past for issuing of Retrospective PRC Completion Certificates. Any firm of good reputation will have dealt with estate agents and be able to offer testimonials for there work.
