Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our property inspection services, process, and reports. We aim to provide clear information so you can make confident decisions.
How much does a house survey cost in the UK?
In the UK, house surveys range from about £300 to £1,500. This depends on the kind of survey being done and how big the property is. Usually, the more general the survey is, the cheaper it is, and the more specific the survey is, the more expensive it is.
Do I need a survey when buying a property?
Yes. A survey gives you a clear picture of the property’s condition and highlights issues you may not spot yourself. Even if a property looks fine, surveys can uncover hidden defects.
Will my surveyor inspect inside and outside the property?
Yes. A professional RICS surveyor will inspect both inside and outside the property where safely accessible, including walls, roof, garden areas, and roof space where possible.
What does a homebuyer survey have?
Homebuyer surveys have general inspections to check if the house is structurally sound, if there are any signs of damp, the quality of the insulation, and if there are any visible defects. They will also include some recommendations to fix it, and also indicate any repairs or maintenance that will need to be done in the future.
What’s the difference between Level 2 and Level 3 surveys?
A Level 2 (HomeBuyer Report) is suitable for most standard modern homes and highlights urgent issues. A Level 3 (Building Survey) offers in‑depth analysis of structure, materials, and defects, ideal for older or unusual properties.
Can you detect hidden problems like damp or heat loss?
Yes. Our surveyors use thermal imaging cameras, damp meters, and advanced diagnostic tools to uncover hidden issues such as moisture, insulation gaps, or structural defects.
