Services
RICS Home Survey Level 2
This detailed visual inspection assesses property condition, identifying significant defects and repair requirements. Our surveyors provide valuation insights when requested, ensuring clients understand potential costs before purchase. The service includes actionable recommendations for maintenance and negotiation purposes.
Structural Engineer Reports
These reports evaluate a property's structural integrity, diagnosing causes of cracks, movement, or subsidence. We provide severity assessments and remedial action plans, supporting mortgage approvals, insurance claims, and repair negotiations. Both full and specific defect reports are available.
RICS Valuations
Conducted for Help to Buy scheme participants, these valuations determine current market value for loan repayments, remortgaging, or sales. Our RICS-registered valuers ensure accurate, compliant assessments valid for three months, with timing advice to optimise outcomes.
