Our Building Survey delivers a comprehensive inspection and in-depth report for properties located in a conservation area, listed or period properties, or modern properties in poor condition.

If you’re buying an older, larger, or extensively altered home, our RICS Building Survey (Level 3) offers the most comprehensive inspection available. It’s perfect for properties that need a deeper look—giving you a clear, detailed understanding of the building’s structure, condition, and future maintenance needs.
Your surveyor will inspect the property from top to bottom, including roofs, walls, floors, windows, doors, lofts, and basements where accessible. We examine the materials used, identify visible defects, explain likely causes, and outline practical next steps or repair options.
Ideal For:
- Older or listed buildings
- Properties that have been altered or extended
- Homes built with non-standard materials
- Buyers planning significant renovations
Every report is written in plain English and supported by clear photographs and diagrams, so you can see exactly what we see.
It’s more than a technical report – it’s a comprehensive guide to understanding your property, making it ideal for complex homes or renovation projects.
