Property Survey Telford

The RICS Building Survey is the most exhaustive of the general surveys, covering an extensive range of building elements and aspects. It is suitable for properties of any type, age, or condition.

The report provides guidance on most identified defects, enabling you to consult a builder or service provider for accurate repair or replacement cost estimates.

This premium service, the top offering in the RICS Home Survey range, is chosen by clients seeking a detailed, unbiased, and clear property evaluation, with expectations exceeding those for RICS HomeBuyer and Condition Reports. It must be carried out by a surveyor with the necessary skills for a comprehensive condition assessment. It identifies risks of potential or concealed defects accurately. The surveyor builds a relationship with the client to clarify their requirements before the service and reviews the report with them afterwards. A comprehensive desktop study equips the surveyor with local property knowledge, and the inspection yields a factual, logically structured report in plain language, clearly separating facts from opinions.

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

In cases where a red scheme is noted, elementary and candid advice is tendered, possibly entailing a follow-up inspection (perhaps via a specialist entity) to procure an accurate figure for repairing or renewing that building component.

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