Surveys
Report
Wessex Surveyors is a multi-disciplined and experienced firm providing a wide range of survey, valuation and planning advice on residential, commercial and rural properties throughout the Wessex Region. Our services include building surveys, home surveys, limited defect reports, snagging lists and bespoke reports which provide the required information in a form that is best suited to your purposes.
Home Survey Level 2
Report
The ISVA HomeSurvey Level 2 Report - This type of report is suitable for most conventionally built residential properties, constructed since around 1900. Properties that are unusual by virtue of their design or construction, or those that are particularly large, converted or extended and altered would require a more detailed report, such as a Building Survey Level 3. We will advise you further in this respect, during our preliminary discussion.
Building Survey Level 3
Report
A Building Survey Level 3 is suitable for all types of buildings but is advised if the property is pre-1850, Listed, in need of extensive repairs or if it is constructed using non-traditional building methods and materials.
The service consists of a detailed visual inspection of the building, its services and the grounds and is more extensive than a Home Survey Level 2. Concealed areas normally opened or used by the occupiers are inspected if it is safe to do so.Although the services are not tested, they are observed in normal operation.

Defect Reports and Snagging Lists
Report
We are often asked to look at specific defects by current home owners or prospective buyers, rather than carry out a full comprehensive survey report on the whole property. This can prove cost effective especially if only one type of defect concerns you, but if there are a number of defects or possible shortcomings then either a Home Survey Level 2 or Building Survey Level 3 would prove more cost effective and appropriate.
