Building surveys

Building surveys in Liverpool, too

Alongside our specialist work, we carry out broader building, roof, home-buyer and drone surveys through our parent practice, KPS Surveying.

Building surveys

A detailed look at the condition of a property, its defects and what to do about them.

Roof surveys

Inspection of roof coverings, structure, flashings and rainwater goods — a common source of damp.

Home-buyer surveys

A clear report on a property’s condition to help you decide before you buy.

Drone surveys

Aerial imagery of roofs, chimneys and high-level areas using a DJI Air 3S drone, where that is useful, without the need for scaffolding.

Building defects and damp go together

Building surveys often uncover the defects behind damp and mould — slipped slates, failed flashings, blocked gutters, defective pointing — so the two pieces of work fit naturally together. Where it is useful, a DJI Air 3S drone lets us look closely at roofs, chimneys, flashings and gutters from the ground. If damp is your main concern, start with a damp and mould survey.
