Full Building Survey

This is a detailed survey, both in the extent of inspection and detail of the report, the full building survey (formerly known as a full structural survey) involves inspection and reportage at a great depth, it comprises:

  • An appraisal of the form and materials of construction.
  • A technical analysis of significant defects revealed and guidance on appropriate further actions.
  • Identification of less significant defects, general disrepair and shortcomings in the physical condition, maintenance and design of the building.

Typically, our Full Building Surveys will include inspections of roofs (internally & externally), walls (internally & externally), floors, windows and doors, chimney stacks and parapets, ceilings, mains services, central heating, sanitary goods, decorations, garages and outbuildings, grounds and boundaries, along with any defects such as dampness, structural damage, timber decay, etc.
