A building survey is a comprehensive inspection suitable for all properties but especially recommended for:

• All listed buildings
• Those built before 1900
• Any building constructed in an unusual way regardless of its age
• Properties you are planning to renovate or alter in any way
• Properties which have already had extensive alterations

A building survey involves a detailed examination of all accessible parts of a property and can be tailor-made to suit your individual needs and concerns.

A building survey includes the following

• all major and minor faults
• The implications of any defects and possible cost of repairs
• Results of testing walls for dampness and timbers for damage including woodworm or rot
• comments on the existence and condition of damp-proofing, insulation and drainage (although the latter will not be tested)
• Extensive technical information on the construction of the property and details about material used in construction
• information on the location
• recommendations for any further specialist inspections

A building survey does not include a valuation, although we can provide a separate valuation report if required.
