Property Survey Stourbridge

The RICS Building Survey provides the most in-depth analysis among general surveys, examining a wide array of building features and components. It is appropriate for all types of properties, irrespective of 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.

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. The survey requires a surveyor with sufficient expertise to perform a detailed property condition analysis. The report highlights potential or hidden defect risks clearly. The surveyor engages with the client to pinpoint their needs before the survey and discusses the report’s findings afterwards. A detailed desktop study ensures the surveyor understands the property’s local context, and the inspection delivers a factual, well-structured report in clear language, separating observations from professional opinions.

Every section features a ‘traffic light rating’; red meaning ‘Beware’ and green indicating 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: Systems for electricity, gas, oil, water, and drainage are only looked at visually, and relevant competent experts must be appointed.
