About UsHome Buyers Survey in Rowlands Gill
Should we book a HomeBuyer Report, Building Survey or Full Structural Survey for a property in Rowlands Gill and which is the cheapest?
The Full Structural Survey is now called a Building Survey, however it is effectively the same level of survey.
If the Rowlands Gill property is a flat or maisonette, or is over 100 years old, or has been substantially modified, or is of non standard construction, you should go for a cheaper HomeBuyer Report.
If you are thinking about whether to make significant alterations, RICS advise you opt for a Building Survey. This more detailed survey is less cheap but it does give you an in-depth analysis of the Rowlands Gill property's general condition in addition to information on defects and maintenance options .

Will there be any potential pitfalls I would need to be wary of when buying a house in Rowlands Gill in conservation area ?
There are thousands official conservation areas throughout England and Wales which are overseen by local authorities. Surveyors in Rowlands Gill are required by RICS to have relevant knowledge of local area factors and the connection they have with the building. The value of homes is typically higher than non conservation area equivalents which is down to them being in good order. However a growing number are falling into disrepair e.g. the excessive amount of traffic management signs
Surveyors are expected advise if the property could be classified as such and the Section I Issues for your legal advisers of a Rowlands Gill Homebuyer Report will advise the proper questions are raised by your legal representation. Unsympathetic developments that do not have Local Authority approval will also be commented on but these are really more a investigated by the lawyer.
The neighbour commented that there may be asbestos ceiling material concealed in the property. Why would there be asbestos, is it dangerous, can it be remedied and What should I do?
Asbestos is a potentially deadly silicate material. Some types may be in building materials for example powdery sprayed on coatings.
Asbestos was commonly used as it has excellent sound absorption qualities and it may be found in soffit boards. Technically all forms are hazardous and can lead to lung cancer or fibrosis following prolonged exposure. If found, care should be taken not to break the asbestos and professional advice must be taken as soon as possible.
Surveyors cannot tell you whether there is asbestos during a Rowlands Gill building survey. Your Rowlands Gill surveyor should report on the risk of asbestos and should recommend professional testing.
