About Us

Home Buyers Survey in Stonehouse

HomeBuyer Report

Should we choose a HomeBuyer Report, Full Structural Survey or Building Survey on a home in Stonehouse and which one is cheaper?

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

If the Stonehouse property is a flat or maisonette, or is a period property, or has been structurally altered, or is of non standard construction, you should go for a cheaper HomeBuyer Report.

If you are thinking about whether to do any alterations, it would be better that you select a Building Survey. This survey is not as cheap however it will give a thorough analysis of the Stonehouse property's state of repair as well as including information on defects , general repairs as well as maintenance options .

Subsidence resulting from soft clay soil

The house I am purchasing is built on clay soil. Can my Stonehouse Home Buyers Survey investigate this?

Surveyors handle more questions relating to subsidence than any other topic, and clay soil is a major contributing factor to the problem, with subsidence being a common example. Drought, for instance, can have a measurable contracting effect on clay soil, compromising the property's structural integrity and potentially leading to very noticeable effects within the property. .

If present, expansive clay soil can put lateral pressure on a Stonehouse property's foundations, forcing them inward. There is a real benefit in booking a Stonehouse surveyor to carry out your Building Survey, familiar with local soil composition, and who has witnessed the effects first-hand. The building foundations may need extra support in some cases. A surveyor can confirm if this is necessary, as it can be a lengthy process.
