Surveys

We carry out Homebuyer Survey and Valuation reports, Structural and Building surveys on all classes of residential, industrial and commercial property.

The purchase of a commercial building or a house is a major capital investment and it may also be one of the major outgoings on an annual basis.

If purchasing any property, you should be satisfied that the building is in good repair and condition. On many occasions, commercial and residential property has been purchased and the owner has only later discovered that major expenditure is necessary due to, for example, failed foundations, the need for replacement of a roof, or incomplete plumbing or electrical installation.

Snow and Astill can provide full Building Surveys, or RICS Homebuyer reports.

Surveys can also be carried out where there is a dispute with regard to building work. Advice can be given and expert Witness reports provided for counter action.

With the impending introduction of Home Condition Reports as part of the Home Sellers Packs, Snow and Astill are accredited through SAVA to carry out Home Condition Reports which come with Hidden Defects insurance.
