Examples of issues identified during recent Level 2 and Level 3 Home Surveys, helping buyers understand condition, risk and future repair priorities before exchange.
Cracked flaunching, deteriorated mortar joints and weathered brickwork identified during a survey of a traditional period property.
Roof coverings, flashings, chimneys and rainwater goods are important parts of a Level 2 or Level 3 survey and can have a significant effect on future repair costs.
Dampness can relate to rainwater goods, high ground levels, ventilation, roof defects or concealed issues requiring further investigation.
Where suitable and safe to fly, drone imagery gives a clearer view of roof coverings, chimneys, flashings, valleys and gutters that may be difficult to assess from ground level.
Subject to suitable weather, airspace and site restrictions. Drone use supports the wider Level 2 or Level 3 survey and does not replace the full property inspection.
