Service Overview

For properties that need a closer look

A Level 3 Building Survey is the most detailed inspection available. It suits period properties, buildings that have been substantially altered or extended, properties in visibly poor condition, and anything you plan to renovate.

The report goes beyond identifying defects. It explains how the building is constructed, why problems have occurred, what will happen if they are left, and what repair options are open to you.
