About Us

Home Buyers Survey in Sherwood

RICS Level 2 Survey

Is it best to select a RICS Level 2 Survey, Full Structural Survey or RICS Level 3 Survey for a home in Sherwood and which one is the cheapest?

The Full Structural Survey has been renamed a RICS Level 3 Survey but is essentially the same survey.

If the Sherwood property is an apartment, or was built before 1900, or has been structurally altered, or is of non standard construction, RICS advise a cheaper RICS Level 2 Survey.

If you intend to do any alterations, RICS recommend you carry out a RICS Level 3 Survey. The RICS Level 3 Survey is not as cheap as a RICS Level 2 Survey but it does offer exhaustive analysis of the Sherwood property's general condition as well as including an opinion on defects as well as maintenance options .

Gas flame

Does the chartered surveyor examine the condition or the safety of the gas appliances?

A RICS surveyor will locate and visually examine the accessible parts of the gas system. This will include gas (and oil heaters) at the property, as well as gas associated appliances, for instance chimney breasts. Fittings won't be taken off. Most people are aware that gas can be hazardous, if you have any worries relating to gas installations, call a gas safe engineer.

The regulations legally require landlords to commission appliance and installation inspections yearly. Non compliance penalties include heavy fines or imprisonment .

Roof defects identified during a survey

We're purchasing a building in Sherwood - What should we do about roof repairs?

Local property in otherwise fine condition can be hiding serious roofing woes, like damp. From wind braces to sheathing, the whole roof must be reviewed. The are also numerous flat-roofed properties in Sherwood, including many apartment blocks. In these cases, the surveyors in Sherwood will look for a range of signs, including holes or cracks in the waterproof layer.

In the past, roof maintenance would be carried out with just ladders and 'crawler boards'. This practice is terribly unsafe, and contractors today will insist that scaffolding be used. Prior to exchange, it may be worth sourcing from a Sherwood roofing specialist a quote for any suggested work. Speak to Raynor Ltd of 33 Larwood Gr, Nottingham, NG5 3JD on 0115-920 2899 for an estimate.
