Excellent Service We have used CWH Surveyors on 5 occasions and would highly recommend our surveyor Victoria Bocock. Victoria did all 5 surveys and saved us on 2 occasions from a house with extensive damp problems and another with structural problems. The seller had gone to great lengths to hide the structural problems but Victoria saw through this. The reports are well written , very detailed and informative , often raising issues I would not have considered. Victoria and all the staff are very professional and knowledgeable and will take the time over the phone to explain or discuss at length any aspects of the survey. Would highly recommend . Thank you for all your help.

Absolutely fantastic company. I got recommended CWH surveyors from mundys estate agents and so glad I used them for my recent house survey and valuation report. Excellent communication from start to finish, David was brilliant at organising everything and keeping us informed. Phillip did our survey and answered any questions we had regarding our house purchase. He could not have been more helpful or knowledgable. Kelly and Liezl were great at sending over information and made everything easy to understand. Could not recommend more.

We had a level 2 survey carried out for an older property. The communication was good and the report received in a timely manner. Most impressive though was the detail in the report, it gave us exactly what was needed to make a decision on the property and demonstrated a thorough knowledge of building construction through different time periods. Recommended.

Our surveys have consistently saved clients substantial amounts on unforeseen issues.

• An assessment of all visible and accessible areas, from roof to foundation
• Identification of any immediate issues requiring prompt attention
• A concise overview of potential legal matters to discuss with your solicitor

• An exhaustive inspection of every accessible area
• A detailed analysis of the property’s structure and condition
• In-depth recommendations for necessary repairs and ongoing maintenance
• Evaluation of potential concealed defects and their implications

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I instruct a surveyor?

A surveyor can be instructed at any point throughout the purchase process. We would encourage clients not to leave it to the last minute, to allow time for any further investigations to be carried out.

What type of surveys are there?

We conduct the RICS two main levels of survey, Level 2 Home Survey and Level 3 Building Survey.

Isn’t a survey carried out by my lender?

There is often a misconception in this regard. Where mortgage finance is involved, the lender will appoint a surveyor to carry out a valuation of the property to ensure it is suitable security for lending and is worth what is being paid for it. This is principally to protect the bank and in some instances it may take the form of a desktop valuation. It will not provide the buyer with a detailed assessment of the property’s condition.

Do I have to arrange the inspection appointment?

Our experienced administrators will make all the necessary arrangements for the surveyor to inspect the property. This will include liaising with the estate agent and seller to reduce stress on our client’s behalf.

How long does a survey inspection take?

Inspections typically take between 2 and 4 hours dependent on the age, size and condition of the property, as well as the type of survey. We will spend sufficient time on site to ensure a detailed and thorough report is produced.

How do I instruct a surveyor?

To discuss your survey requirements, please feel free to contact us here.

How quickly will I receive my report?

Following the survey inspection, the completed report is issued within 4-7 working days, allowing time for reflection on our findings and ensuring the report is accurate.

What are the benefits of a survey?

Our survey is designed to provide a buyer with a comprehensive overview of the condition of the property they are purchasing and allowing them to make an informed decision. It is there to assist with the decision making process so that they can proceed to purchase in confidence. Where issues do exist, it will identity the issues and provide context regarding the urgency of repairs to ensure that any significant defects can be costed before committing to purchase.
