Our London team of Building Surveyors specialises in delivering the highest-level reports (RICS level 3) – attainable only by a Chartered Building Surveyor. This report ensures that you buy your new home with confidence.
A building surveyor will most likely be used when looking for a property to purchase or if you have intentions to extend. They offer professional advice on factors such as building defects, alterations, extensions and renovations. Their service is even more important when you’re dealing with larger, older or rundown properties.
The RICS full building survey reports (also known as full structural building surveys) are far more in-depth compared to any other survey report because it gives detailed information about the structure and condition of the property.
These reports help to inform your decision on a property in conjunction with a valuation, which is usually provided by the mortgage lender. It will help you to understand the costs that may occur down the line should certain work need doing.
Building Surveyors conduct structural surveys on both residential and commercial property ranging from multi-million-pound buildings to more modest structures.
They complete detailed reports, known as building surveys, which identify any defects or advise on repair, maintenance and restoration options. Building surveying best practices are adhered to for surveys on existing buildings, any buildings with architectural or historic importance or on the development of new buildings.
