Our surveyor would be pleased to discuss his service in more details, which includes:

Full Building Survey (or Full Structural Survey)
This is the most comprehensive survey.
Inspections can take anything from three hours to one day to complete. (Depending on the size of the home) 
It provides you with a detailed report, complete with colour photographs showing any identifiable defects.
The report contains an easy to understand summary and a list of any faults discovered together with the approximate cost of remedial work.

A Homebuyer Survey and Valuation
This type of survey and valuation is a more economical option than a full building survey.
It follows procedures established by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and is based on a detailed visual examination of the property.
The Homebuyer Survey provides you with more detail than a mortgage valuation but less than a Full Building Survey. 
It provides you with a report outlining the general condition of the property.
The report highlights anything that affects the property’s present day value or may affect its future resale.

Mortgage Valuations
Mortgage valuations are organised by the mortgage lender and paid for by the purchaser.
They are intended to advise the lender whether or not the property is in a suitable security for a mortgage and whether it is reasonably priced.
A valuation is a brief inspection. 

Pre-Sale Surveys
Pre-Sale survey reports are usually requested by the person selling the house prior to the property being put on the market.
These reports can be used by potential purchasers to assess the condition of the property.
They are often used by the seller to check how they can maximise the property value and minimise potential issues for a buyer, by identifying necesary work now.

Open Market Appraisal
We are able to provide free, no obligation market appraisals and rental assessment if you are considering selling or renting your property.

Defect diagnosis and advice
We would be pleased to put you in touch with local companies who would be please to discuss any concerns you have regarding your property or a property you are considering buying.   They would be able to identify the issue, give advice and explain how the issue could be resolved and at what cost.  Common examples would be:

• Damp & Rot
• Drainage
• Electrics
• Boilers
• Timber defects
• Insect Infestation
• Roof failures
