RICS Home Surveys in Waterlooville
Independent Level 2 and Level 3 Home Surveys for conventional, extended and modern homes across Waterlooville and the surrounding area.
Local, property-specific advice
Waterlooville has extensive inter-war, post-war and modern housing, together with older village properties and homes that have been enlarged over time. Extensions, converted garages, altered internal layouts and ageing roof coverings are common reasons buyers benefit from a careful, property-specific inspection.
Your survey is carried out personally by Steven Lewis AssocRICS, DipSurv, RICS Registered Valuer. The inspection and report are tailored to the property’s age, construction, condition and your particular concerns rather than relying on a generic checklist.
Level 2 or Level 3?
A RICS Level 2 Home Survey is generally suited to conventional properties in reasonable condition. It uses condition ratings to highlight defects, repairs and matters requiring further investigation.
A RICS Level 3 Building Survey provides more detailed analysis and is normally more appropriate for older, larger, altered, unusual or poorly maintained homes, or where significant renovation is planned.
Focused defect reports
Where the concern relates to a particular problem rather than the whole property, a focused defect report may be appropriate. Typical instructions include flat-roof defects, leaks from main roofs, cracking, dampness and condensation.
Reports are normally issued within three working days, and a verbal overview is provided following the inspection.
