Building Condition Surveys

A building condition survey is an assessment of a property's structural state, building fabric and services. Our qualified surveyors conduct systematic inspections using diagnostic tools to identify defects, deterioration and compliance issues. You receive a detailed report with photographic evidence, condition ratings and prioritised repair recommendations aligned to British Standards.

Yes. Our surveys are conducted by qualified professionals with extensive experience in building pathology and structural diagnostics. Our team is led by Grant Evans, who brings over 19 years of industry experience specialising in BS8102 and BS8485 compliance. We also carry substantial professional indemnity insurance.

Our reports provide clear guidance on severity, risk and recommended actions. We prioritise findings so you understand what requires immediate attention versus longer-term maintenance. If defects require forensic investigation or specialist testing, we'll recommend appropriate follow-up services to establish root causes and develop targeted solutions.

Survey duration depends on property size, age and complexity. Larger commercial buildings or properties with multiple structures require longer than smaller residential homes. We'll confirm timescales during the initial consultation once we understand your property and specific requirements.
