Property Survey Rushden

The RICS Building Survey is the most thorough assessment among general surveys, encompassing a wide range of building components and aspects. It is suitable for any property, regardless of its type, age, or condition.

The report includes guidance on most defects, enabling you to seek precise repair or replacement cost estimates from builders or service providers.

As the flagship product in the RICS Home Survey range, this service appeals to clients desiring a clear, impartial, and comprehensive property assessment, surpassing the standards of RICS HomeBuyer and Condition Reports. It requires a surveyor with the skills to perform an in-depth property condition assessment. It highlights risks associated with potential or hidden defects clearly. The surveyor works closely with the client to understand their specific requirements before the service and reviews the findings afterwards. A detailed desktop study ensures the surveyor has a strong understanding of the property’s locality, and the inspection produces a factual, logically ordered report in straightforward language, clearly distinguishing facts from the surveyor’s opinions.

A ‘traffic light indicator’ is applied to every segment; red for ‘Beware’ and green for satisfactory.

If a red signal appears, basic and direct recommendations are offered, which could suggest needing an additional assessment (such as from an expert firm) to get a practical quote for fixing or renewing that building element.

Note: Services for electricity, gas, oil, water, and drainage undergo only visual checks, and appropriate certified experts must be hired.
