We are specialist Chartered Building Surveyors based in Cambridge providing Building Surveys and Homebuyer Reports throughout Cambridgeshire, London, Norwich, Hertfordshire, Essex and Suffolk:
What property surveys are available?
RICS HOMEBUYERS REPORT (LEVEL TWO)
The homebuyer report provides an expert account of the property's condition and highlights any problems in clear and easy to understand language including a clear and easy to understand 'traffic light' rating system to clearly illustrate the properties general condition.
RICS BUILDING SURVEY (LEVEL THREE)
The Building Survey is a detailed investigation and assessment of the construction and condition of a building.
The survey includes details of the structure, fabric, finishes and grounds, and will include reference to visible defects and appropriate guidance on repair.
DEFECT DIAGNOSIS (SPECIALIST ADVICE)
A bespoke report which is usually commissioned to investigate a single fault. We are able to inspect building defects, advise on necessary testing which may be required for final diagnosis, then recommend the right building repair for your circumstances taking account of costs, likely success, access and egress, residual risks and your plans for the property.
To help describe the condition of a home, we give condition ratings to the main parts or 'elements' of the property. The condition ratings are described as follows:
No repair currently needed. The property must be maintained in the normal way.
Defects that need repairing or replacing but are not considered to be either serious or urgent.
Defects which are serious and/or need to be repaired, replaced or investigated urgently.
