Property condition surveys

Condition surveys for purchase, renovation and insurance, with findings set out clearly and supported by evidence.

Technical drawings — plans, sections and elevations prepared for a residential project
The brief

Condition surveys record the state of a building systematically, with findings set out clearly and supported by evidence.

Approach

Roof, walls, floors, structure, damp, services, drainage and external elements are assessed, and each finding is rated by severity with a recommended action.

Planning and regulation

Surveys are commissioned before purchase, before renovation and for insurance purposes, and are written to support clear decisions.

Delivery

The survey is issued as a written report with photographs and prioritised recommendations.

Fees

Fees are fixed for each stage and confirmed in writing once the scope is agreed. Construction cost depends on the site, the specification and the procurement route, and is established through an indicative cost plan at feasibility stage.
