Jake did a damp and mould inspection of our house as we had concerns with mould in one of the bedrooms. The inspection was very thorough, Jake explained everything really well and gave us very useful recommendations. The communication was excellent.

Why Choose Fitzgerald Surveying for Your Home Survey

The difference between an independent surveyor and a lender-appointed one really comes down to who the report is written for. A lender is mainly interested in risk to their money, while an independent, experienced RICS surveyor is working for you as the buyer. That independence matters because it means you get honest, unbiased independent surveyor advice you can actually use when deciding whether to proceed, renegotiate, or walk away.

RICS Qualified and Accredited

We are fully registered members of the RICS Org, As RICS home survey specialists, we carry full professional indemnity insurance and maintain accreditation across recognised industry bodies, ensuring every report is properly regulated and accountable.

Comprehensive Reports

Reports are written in plain English, not heavy technical language. You get clear condition ratings, practical priorities, and photographs of any issues found, so the survey findings are easy to understand and act on.

Ongoing Client Support

We don’t just send a report and disappear. If you’ve got questions after the survey, we’re available to talk it through and help you understand what it actually means for your next steps.

Precision & Accuracy

With experienced surveyors and modern diagnostic tools, including thermal imaging and damp detection, we ensure accuracy and clarity. The aim is to give you accurate information in the findings, not vague summaries allowing you to make confident buying decisions.

Advanced Technology

We use tools like drone inspections, thermal imaging, and specialist diagnostic equipment to pick up issues that aren’t always visible during a standard inspection. It helps build a more complete picture of the property.

Local Knowledge

Local RICS surveyors across South East England means we understand local construction styles and common defect patterns. From Aylesbury to Woking and Farnham, that local experience helps us spot issues quicker and report them more accurately.

Explain RICS Home Survey Types

There are three main survey levels under the RICS system, and each one is used depending on the property and how much detail you need before buying.

What is a RICS Level 1 Survey

The RICS Level 1 Condition Report is the most basic type of home survey, usually suited to newer properties, modern flats, or homes that appear well-maintained with no obvious issues. It’s mainly there to flag visible problems before you buy, not to carry out a detailed inspection of the structure. The report uses a simple traffic light system to rate different parts of the property and highlights urgent defects, safety concerns, or areas needing attention. It does not include detailed repair advice, testing, or a valuation. Buyers who just want a straightforward report overview of a fairly standard property often choose this option.

What is a RICS Level 2 Survey

The RICS Level 2 HomeBuyer Survey is the most popular survey for standard homes in reasonable condition. It gives a more detailed look at visible defects like damp, roofing problems, timber decay, insulation issues, and general wear and tear. The report also includes practical repair advice, maintenance guidance, and things that may need sorting after purchase. An optional valuation and rebuild cost assessment can usually be included as well. This survey suits buyers who want a clearer picture of the property condition without going as far as a full structural inspection.

What is a RICS Level 3 Survey

The RICS Level 3 Building Survey is the most detailed option and is normally recommended for older homes, listed buildings, larger properties, or anything that’s been heavily altered or is in poor condition. It’s also the better choice if you’re planning major renovation work. The level 3 survey goes much deeper into the structure and condition of the building, with the surveyor checking all accessible areas and providing a detailed breakdown of defects, likely causes, repair considerations, and potential risks if problems are ignored. These reports are far more detailed and tailored to the specific property, which makes them useful for buyers dealing with more complicated buildings or possible structural concerns.

Property Survey Assessments

Our independent property surveyors provide expert, impartial advice on condition, value, and structural integrity. We offer RICS L1 Condition Surveys, L2 Homebuyers Surveys, and L3 Building Surveys, equipping you with the crucial knowledge needed for repairs, renovations, or purchases.
