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

Masonry cracking
