About Us

Home Buyers Survey in Bath

HomeBuyer Report

Should we select a Full Structural Survey, Building Survey or HomeBuyer Report for a home in Bath and which one would be the cheapest?

The Full Structural Survey has a new name called a Building Survey, however it is basically the same the same level of survey.

If the Bath property is a flat or maisonette, or was built before 1900, or has been structurally altered, or is of non standard construction, RICS recommend a cheaper HomeBuyer Report.

If you intend to carry out major works on the property, RICS advise you carry out a Building Survey. This more detailed survey is not as cheap but it will give you comprehensive details of the Bath property's general condition in addition to an opinion on defects as well as maintenance options .

Timber damage by insect larvae

I am worried about vermin in the home we plan to buy. Is a Full Structural Survey advisable?

Pests like woodworm may sometimes seem a small, even irrelevant, matter when buying in Bath. Regrettably, infestations can impact a home's worth and carry serious health risks. An affected home may not always be easy to identify, for example, irritating cluster flies will hibernate in Autumn, but will return every year without treatment. Remedies to a serious infestation can include destruction of tainted materials. If you strongly suspect an issue with woodworm, or any pest, speak to your chartered surveyor

Gas flame

Does the local surveyor examine the safety of the gas mains supply?

A local surveyor will visually examine the accessible parts of the gas system. This will mean gas related areas such as the gas pipe route at the home, as well as gas related gas fittings in the home such as chimney linings. External covers won't however be dislodged. Most people are aware that gas is potentially unsafe, if you have any concerns relating to gas installations, contact a gas safe engineer.
