A residential building survey typically involves a thorough assessment of the existing property and the proposed extension, conversion or property alteration. The survey is conducted by a qualified surveyor who will provide a detailed report outlining any potential issues or concerns that may impact the construction process, including details about the structure, foundation, roof, walls, floors, plumbing, and electrical systems.
Inspection of the Existing Property
The surveyor will inspect the existing property to assess its condition and identify any potential problems that may affect the proposed extension or loft conversion. This may include checking the structure, foundation, roof, walls, floors, plumbing, and electrical systems.
Assessment of the Proposed Changes
The surveyor will assess the proposed extension or conversion plans to ensure that they comply with building regulations and other legal requirements. This may include checking the structural design, the drainage and sewage systems, and the ventilation and insulation requirements.
Identification of Potential Issues
The surveyor will identify any potential issues that may arise during the construction process, such as dampness, infestation, or structural problems. They will also identify any potential risks or hazards that may affect the safety of the occupants.
Recommendations based on findings
The surveyor will provide recommendations on how to address any issues or concerns identified during the survey. This may include suggestions for remedial works, such as repairs or upgrades to the existing property, or modifications to the proposed extension or conversion plans.
