A Building Survey or Structural Survey as it is sometimes described, is suitable for any residential property and provides a detailed picture of its construction and condition. If the property is extensive, has been altered or is in a run down condition, then this is the report to opt for as it provides much more information. A building survey is a highly detailed report that can be designed around your specific requirements. Typical building surveys instructed recently include a chocolate box thatched cottage and a non-traditional, timber framed house from the 1950's.

Quite often a HomeBuyer Report would cover what you need, so check with one of our Chartered Surveyors first before going ahead with a building survey - it could save you hundreds of pounds.

The report will usually comprise:

 A comprehensive appraisal of the means and materials of construction.

• An analysis of significant defects revealed and advice on repair or investigation.
• Identification of less significant defects, general disrepair and shortcomings in the physical condition, maintenance and design of the building.

 A buildings insurance figure is provided where possible.

The cost of a Building Survey starts at £450 with E Surveyors (See Surveyors Fees).
