Obtain comprehensive report

To provide you with an accurate, thorough and comprehensive report, your Building Surveyor must be able to obtain as much information about the property as possible. It includes checking for construction defects, structural problems, and issues with building services such as water supply and drainage systems, electrical wiring and plumbing. In addition to inspecting the building itself, they will also inspect any related areas including gardens or lawns. Any trees or shrubs that appear to be overgrown may need pruning back to ensure that they pose no threat to surrounding buildings or their occupants.

The expert surveyor will offer a comprehensive report to you.

After the survey is complete, the report will contain a detailed description of the property’s condition. It will include all observations made during the inspection and recommendations for any remedial works required to bring it up to current standards or make it safe. The surveyor will also advise you on maintaining and repairing your property. In addition, they may advise on other maintenance issues such as damp proofing, ventilation or heat loss problems which can negatively impact your health and comfort levels when living on a property.

Condition Survey

A Condition Survey is a detailed report of the current condition of your property. It is design to help you understand the current condition of your property and how this may affect its value.
