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 the possible cost of repairs
- Results of any testing on walls for dampness
- Comments on damage to timbers 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 materials used in construction
- Information on the location
- Recommendations for any further specialist inspections
