Below are just some of the houses we have surveyed
Stone cottage old and new
The Loft had the wrong insulation installed causing condensation in the space. The lack of lateral support in the conservatory open to the main living space is a massive source of heat loss. This means higher energy bills.
Thermal bridging in a model
New tech has advanced meaning we can now look at the fabric of any building Thermal bridges can be a main source of heat loss in both old and new homes.
Georgian and Tudor mix
The stone mullion windows were rotten, water ingress from the redundant chimney and damp from a lack of ventilation. Old storage heaters cost a fortune to heat the old home and cementitious render causes damp
New stone still with defects
Slipped tiles on the roof, failing double glazing Issues with the loft conversion with port detailing to the insulated rafters
Detached Georgian
Our drone survey found the tiles in the middle valley were delaminating no access from the ground was possible, and cracked windows, and sashes that needed repair and additions with no planning documentation.
Thatched highlighting the build over time
A mix of build dates from the 1600s to the late 1800s detailing build eras, timber woodworm and a lack of ventilation modern double-glazed windows meant this house was a sweat box ideal for woodworm.
When you should consider a RICS level three survey ?
If the home you are buying was built before 1919 (referred to as a heritage home) is unusual in construction, and is built using older more traditional brick, timber and often non-standard construction methods.
