RICS Property Surveyor in Aylesbury
Aylesbury has grown fast, but a lot of its housing has not. Georgian and Victorian homes sit close to the centre, large new estates ring the edges, and every one of them hides something different. As RICS surveyors based just outside the town, we know Aylesbury’s housing and inspect it properly, so you learn what a property is really like before you buy, rather than after.

Choose the Right RICS Home Survey in Aylesbury
Every inspection is a thorough, visual assessment of the property, with a clear account of what is sound, what shows defects and what needs attention. Which of the three RICS home survey levels suits you comes down to the property’s age, construction and overall condition.
from £ 350 + VAT
A condition survey suits newer or well-maintained homes, including modern flats and low-maintenance properties around Cressex and Booker. A RICS surveyor checks accessible areas, rates their condition and flags urgent issues, but it does not include a valuation. This is often what people mean when searching for a condition survey in High Wycombe.
- Report issued within 2 days
from £ 500 + VAT
The Homebuyers Survey is the level most buyers choose and suits conventional homes in reasonable order. It covers the roof, walls, floors, windows, drainage and structure in greater depth, with condition ratings, maintenance and repair guidance, and a market valuation if you want one. For most standard purchases, this is the home survey in Aylesbury that gives the right balance of detail and value.
- Report issued within 2 days
from £ 600 + VAT
A Building Survey is the most thorough option and the sensible choice for older, extended or unusual properties, including the period homes around Aylesbury Old Town and the villages nearby. Our building surveyors examine the structure in detail, explain the likely causes of any defects and set out the repairs to consider. Some buyers still search for this as a building survey in Aylesbury or a full structural survey.

- Why Choose Us
Why Choose Fitzgerald Surveying Services in Aylesbury?

- FAQ
Aylesbury Survey Questions, Answered
Whether you are eyeing a new-build on one of the estates or a period home in the Old Town, a survey tends to bring up questions. Here are the ones Aylesbury buyers ask us most often, covering survey levels, cost, timings and what actually happens on the day.
It is still worth it. New homes on estates like Berryfields or Kingsbrook can carry snagging faults, drainage problems or early damp, and an independent inspection gives you leverage while the developer is still involved. For a brand-new plot, a snagging survey may suit better.
Usually, yes. Period and extended homes hide more, and a Level 3 Building Survey goes deep enough to flag structural issues, past alterations and repair needs that a lighter inspection would miss.
A Homebuyers Survey (Level 2) gives condition ratings and practical advice for conventional homes in reasonable order, while a Building Survey (Level 3) is a fuller, more detailed inspection suited to older or unusual properties. If you are unsure which fits, we will point you in the right way before you book.
It depends on the size, age and location of the property. A Level 1 Condition Survey starts from £350, a Level 2 Homebuyers Survey from £450, and a Level 3 Building Survey from £650. Every quote is confirmed upfront with no obligation.
Yes. Alongside the town itself, we regularly survey homes in Weston Turville, Stoke Mandeville, Wendover, Aston Clinton, Haddenham and the wider Vale.
