Building Survey (Level three)
An in-depth look at the property's condition, with advice on defects, repairs and how to maintain the property. For larger or older (50+ years) properties, unusual homes, renovation projects and properties in poor condition. £600-£1,500.
The Building Survey is a far more thorough and detailed report on the property’s condition. It will provide greater advice on defects and recommended repair options with budget costs, but will not provide a property valuation.
This type of survey is recommended for older properties, properties that show obvious signs of distress or where significant renovation or alterations are planned, or have taken place. The report will provide structural guidance as appropriate.
​
Electrical power sockets will be tested as will flow rate at taps and wastes, but otherwise Electrical, Heating and Plumbing systems will be discussed but not tested. Where appropriate, specialist testing of M & E Services and equipment can be arranged on your behalf. As far as possible the drains will be inspected for flow rates.​
