Building Survey

What is a Building Survey?
A Building Survey is the most detailed and comprehensive property survey available. It is best suited to older, larger, extended or altered properties, or where you are planning major works.
This is a RICS Level 3 Survey and provides an in-depth assessment of the structure, condition and construction of the building.
You’ll receive expert advice on defects, repairs, maintenance and future risks.
What’s included?
Your RICS surveyor will inspect and report on:
- Structural movement and subsidence
- Damp, rot and timber defects
- Roof structure and coverings
- Loft and insulation
- Drainage and visible services
- Dangerous materials such as asbestos
- Signs of infestation
- Drone roof inspection
- Reinstatement value for insurance
- Energy efficiency advice
The report includes clear explanations, repair guidance, and recommendations for any further investigations needed.
How Long Does It take?
Your report will be delivered within 3–5 working days after the inspection.
