Discover the Ultimate Homebuying Experience with Novello

When it comes to purchasing a property, the stakes are high, and the decisions you make can have lasting consequences. That’s why we have developed a service that exceeds the standard—our Private Client Surveying service. This premium, bespoke offering ensures a smooth, stress-free experience from beginning to end, allowing your house purchase to progress efficiently and, most importantly, ensuring you pay a fair price for your new home.

The Novello Difference

At Novello, we understand that buying a home is one of the most significant investments you’ll ever make. While a standard survey may identify issues with a property, our Private Client Surveying service goes a step further by providing clear, actionable advice that empowers you to make informed decisions. We don’t just highlight problems; we offer solutions, ensuring that you’re not left in the dark when it comes to the true condition of your potential new home.

With our Private Client Surveying service, you benefit from a highly detailed, yet precise and accurate survey report delivered by a RICS-qualified surveyor. But that’s just the beginning. Our service is tailored to your individual needs, guiding you through every step of the homebuying process. From the initial onboarding call, where you can share your concerns and requirements, to the final report and beyond, we are with you every step of the way.

Comprehensive Property Insights

Our Novello Private Client Surveying is unmatched in its thoroughness. We inspect a minimum of 20 internal and external elements of the property, including:

• As much of the property as physically accessible, from cellars to lofts, under carpets, and behind furniture.
• Insulation, condensation, and dampness, ensuring the property is not just structurally sound but also comfortable and healthy to live in.
• Roof spaces and flat roofs with safe access, aided by our specialist drone technology.
• Visible parts of available services such as electricity, gas, water, heating, and drainage, giving you a clear picture of the property’s infrastructure.
• Energy efficiency and environmental issues to help you understand the property’s long-term sustainability and running costs.

Our detailed reports don’t just list issues; they include photos, repair options, cost estimates (for defects costing £5,000+ and over), and future maintenance considerations. We even provide guidance on potential legal concerns, giving you the confidence to proceed with your purchase or negotiate better terms.

What makes our Premium Surveying Service different?

Our Private Client Surveying service is packed with additional benefits that set it apart from standard reports. Here’s what you can expect in addition:

• Major Defect Costings (£5,000+): We provide detailed cost estimates for any significant issues identified during the survey, such as the need for a new roof or extensive repointing work. This allows you to negotiate a fair price or budget for necessary repairs.
• Drone Survey: Our use of specialist drones enables us to inspect hard-to-reach areas like the roof, chimney, and guttering, providing a level of detail that traditional surveys often miss. The drone photographs are included in your report for full transparency.
• Insurance Reinstatement Cost Assessment: Know exactly how much it would cost to rebuild the property with our reinstatement cost assessment, helping you choose the right level of insurance cover.
• Floor Area Measurements: We provide precise measurements of the property’s floor area, following the Internal Property Measurements Standards, ensuring you know exactly what you’re getting.
