A Building Survey is a more comprehensive inspection of a property reported in a style to suit the property and tailored to your specific requirements. Everything is looked at in greater depth than a Home Buyers Survey. It’s suitable for all properties, especially those that are:
Very old
In need of major renovation
Unusually constructed
Extensively altered or extended
Listed buildings
It examines all accessible parts of the property in detail including roof voids and drain manholes– and subject to agreement, you can request specific areas be included, so it designed to cover any particular concerns you have about the building.
The Building Surveyor will provide you with a detailed report which focuses on the construction, state of repair and future maintenance requirements.
Additional investigations can be incorporated within the report such as testing of services including drains, electrics, plumbing and heating. There would be additional professional costs to consider if further services were required.
A Building Survey does not include a valuation, but we can provide this separately if you need one. Our reports also always include a photographic survey.
