Home Purchase Report
A home survey is a crucial part of the process of buying a property and one that needs to be done by a building surveyor. The purpose of a home purchase report is to look at the condition of the property and to give you the information you need before you buy a new home.
Building Survey
If you are looking to buy an older property or one that isn’t in top condition, then a building survey is a very important part of the process. You need to ensure you are fully aware of potential problems with the property as well as costly work needed to rectify issues.
Planning Applications
The process of receiving planning permission for work to be done to your home requires that you go through a planning process in many cases. While there are some things you can change about your home under Permitted Development rights, other jobs require formal planning.
