Specific defect report
Choose our Specific Defect Report where you need a surveyor to visit your property to provide an expert opinion on a specific issue or area. As RICS Chartered Surveyors, we are recognised by major financial and insurance institutions.
The Specific Structural Inspection will focus on a particular problem with the properties structure or condition. The report will go into similar detail as an RICS Building Survey, but will restrict observations to the particular area of concern.
The specific inspection will give you in-depth information on the defect, diagnosing the issue, identifying the cause/s and outlining repair options.
Our Specific Structural Report covers a range of defects, including:
-
Wall or ceiling cracks
-
