Building Survey Melksham

Looking for a building survey on a property in the Melksham area?

House Nous can put you touch with selected local building surveyors ready to offer their services.

Purchasing a property is a big investment. A survey will help ensure you understand the condition of your property and whether it has any serious issues that might affect its value.

RICS, the professional body regulating surveyors, classifies building surveys under three levels, most surveys fall within these levels – especially if the firm is regulated.

  • Level 1 Building Survey
    This is the most affordable survey, offering only a brief overview of the property's condition. It is recommended primarily for new builds in good condition.
  • Level 2 Building Survey
    Formerly known as the RICS Homebuyers Survey, this survey offers more detail than a Level 1 survey. It provides information on defects but does not include advice on necessary repairs. This survey is recommended for properties built within the last 30 years.
  • Level 3 Building Survey
    This is the most comprehensive and expensive type of survey. It provides detailed information on the construction, identifies defects, and offers advice on repairs. It is suitable for more complex properties or those older than 30 years.

Most surveyors will advise you on which survey would be most suitable for your property.
