DEFECT DIAGNOSIS

If you’re concerned about one specific issue, a defect diagnosis survey provides targeted, professional advice without the cost of a full survey. Whether you’re buying a property or already live there, we inspect the issue in detail and report clearly on the likely cause, implications, and appropriate next steps.​​

 

Suitable for: 

Homeowners experiencing a recurring or unexplained defect


Buyers needing clarity on a single issue before committing


Properties with isolated leaks, cracking or localised deterioration


Situations where a full Level 2 or Level 3 survey is not required

What We Do Differently to
 
Help You Succeed

Sometimes finding the right surveyor can get complicated, so here's a succinct summary of what we do that sets us apart from the rest.

No Upfront fees

No Upfront Fees

Our fee is only due once your survey is complete and your report has been delivered. No deposits, no pressure; just transparent pricing and a service that stands on its quality.

Above and Beyond – Every Time

Most Level 2 surveys rely on ground-level roof inspections. As standard, we use a 6 metre telescopic camera pole to inspect high-level elements at close range, allowing us to identify defects that are often missed and provide clearer, more reliable advice with fewer assumptions.

Unrushed surveys

Slow Inspections

We don't think you should ever rush a survey, so we only conduct a maximum of one survey per day to ensure that we can fully focus on you and providing the highest quality service.

Ben was brilliant from start to finish, very friendly chap and informative with the survey on the house we were buying. He even went above and beyond with finding out about other information in regards to communal parking that I didn't expect from the survey which was great.
