Common questions about our surveying services in Kent
A Level 2 survey (Homebuyer Survey) is suitable for conventional properties in reasonable condition. It's a mid-level inspection that covers visible defects and major issues. A Level 3 survey (Building Survey) is our most comprehensive survey, ideal for older properties, listed buildings, or properties requiring extensive work. It includes an in-depth analysis of the property's condition, detailed defect reports, and repair recommendations. Our chartered surveyors can advise which survey suits your property best.
Survey costs vary depending on the property size, type, and location across Kent. Level 1 surveys typically start from £400, Level 2 homebuyer surveys from £500, and comprehensive Level 3 building surveys from £650. Property valuations and specialist surveys like party wall or drone surveys are priced individually. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your property.
RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) is the gold standard for property surveyors. RICS chartered surveyors are highly qualified, insured, and regulated professionals who follow strict codes of conduct. Using RICS surveyors means you get reliable, impartial advice and comprehensive survey reports. If anything goes wrong, RICS provides additional protection for clients. All our building surveyors are RICS chartered and also accredited by CIOB and RPSA.
The inspection itself typically takes 2-4 hours depending on the property size and survey type. Our surveyors are thorough and don't rush. After the inspection, we prepare your detailed survey report within 3-5 working days. We understand that buying a property is time-sensitive, so we work quickly without compromising on quality. If you need an urgent survey, we can often accommodate faster turnaround times.
While not legally required, a professional survey is essential to protect your investment. Properties can have hidden defects like damp, structural issues, or subsidence that aren't visible during viewings. A survey from our chartered building surveyors identifies these problems before you commit to purchase, potentially saving thousands in unexpected repair costs. Many buyers use survey findings to renegotiate the property price. For peace of mind and informed decisions, a survey is invaluable.
