Clear, Practical Reports to Help You Understand Your Property
A Residential Condition Survey provides a straightforward assessment of a property’s condition, helping homeowners, buyers, and landlords make informed decisions. While not an official RICS or RPSA survey, this service follows similar best practices to ensure a professional and easy-to-understand report.

- Roof & External Structure – Inspection of roofing, chimneys, gutters, walls, and foundations.

- Internal Condition – Assessment of floors, ceilings, walls, and joinery.
