A detailed survey carried out by a Professional Building Surveyor (or Building Inspector) from BSC Building Surveyors & Consultants is to assess the condition of the building, in particular, the structure, fabrics and components, finishes, services and safety requirements. Surveys are a kind of ‘health check’ for buildings by a building doctor. If you’re buying a property, you should have a building survey done by a Professional Building Surveyor before you enter into a contract – or before making an offer.
