House Surveys
Home Condition Report: This gives you basic
information of the current state of the building
and whether there are any serious defects which
need urgent attention. It also advises on further
investigations to prevent damage to the building
and gives “condition ratings” for the major parts
of the main house (not outbuildings).
Energy Performance Certificate: The Energy Performance
Certificate is commissioned by the seller and is
carried out by an approved energy consultant. It
gives ratings and expected costs for the heating
system, insulation, double glazing, etc.
Full Structural Survey: This is the most comprehensive
type of survey. It can be done for any building,
but is especially recommended for buildings of non-standard
construction and for properties which have had many
of alterations or houses where you are planning
