Building surveys - Fairhurst Buckley

The valuation survey carried out on a house by your mortgage company/lender is simply to value the property to satisfy the bank/lender that the house is worth the proposed purchase price; this is not an inspection of the building to determine if the house is sound structured and free from defects. Fairhurst Buckley will carry out a full inspection of the building to report on its condition, any defects present, the cause of defects and recommend remedial works, prior to you purchasing the property.
