Survey Process
Our survey process involves several key steps to ensure a thorough assessment:
Consultation
We began with an initial consultation call to understand the client's concerns and specific requirements for the survey. This included a discussion about the property's history and any known issues.
Inspection
We conducted a detailed on-site inspection over a four hour period, covering both the interior and exterior of the property including all main building components as well as a visual inspection of services installations.
Report
Our findings were documented in a comprehensive report, including detailed descriptions of each identified issue, photographs and diagrams. We provided clear, actionable recommendations for repairs and maintenance.
Key issues for consideration included:
Lack of adequate roof space ventilation
Extract fan venting directly into roof space
High moisture meter readings to roof timbers
Raised ground levels obstructing sub floor vents and bridging DPC in some areas
High moisture meter readings to walls at low level and floors throughout

Unprotected drop in rear garden a safety concern especially for young children
Post Report Video Call
Following report issue and once the client had a chance to fully read through the report, we arranged a video call and addressed any further questions or queries the client had.
