OUR SURVEYSGuidance for every home

Regardless of whether you are buying or selling a property, it is essential to have the condition of the home assessed by an expert. Our team of AssocRICS and MRICS Chartered Surveyors carries out the following surveys, trusted by buyers across England and Wales.

Home Survey (Level 2)
Sometimes known as a RICS HomeBuyer Report, this survey is ideal for modern or conventional homes that appear to be in reasonable condition. It provides a clear overview of the property, highlights visible defects and offers practical advice for confident decision making.

Building Survey (Level 3)
Often referred to as a Full Structural Survey, this survey is suitable for all property types. It is especially valuable for older homes, larger properties and any building that has been altered or extended. It provides a thorough understanding of the structure, condition and potential repair needs, along with guidance on future maintenance.

Pro Upgrade
For clients who want deeper insight and faster clarity. The Pro option includes a drone roof inspection, estimated repair costs for significant defects (over £2,000) and a quicker turnaround after the inspection. It is a popular choice for time sensitive purchases and for buyers who want complete peace of mind.
