Local Property Surveyors in Thornton 

Working with local property surveyors in Thornton enables you to the access in-depth local knowledge and industry expertise that’s required to comprehensively assess buildings and land. Giving you an independent and user-friendly assessment of the property in its current condition, you’ll gain insights that will help you to protect your interests and safeguard your funds. 

Depending on the type of survey you commission, your surveyor will assess the property and provide a detailed report outlining various aspects of its condition. With a RICS Level 3 Home survey, for example, you can gain a detailed insight into the condition of the property, the need for future remedial works and the expected costs, while a 3D virtual imaging survey combines digital replicas with real-world spaces into an immersive tour of the property.

Residential and Commercial Surveys in Thorton

Both residential and commercial properties can be affected by hidden issues that, over time, could cause significant damage to the structural integrity, safety and functionality of the building. Only via a building survey can you uncover these issues and mitigate their impact. 

One of the most common types of surveys is a ‘pre-acquisition survey’, which potential buyers commission before purchasing a property. This allows potential buyers to identify possible issues that could affect the building and its value. Depending on the results of the survey, you may decide to withdraw your offer or adjust the amount based on the repair works that will need to be carried out. 

In addition to this, planned preventative maintenance (PPM) surveys, dilapidations surveys, party wall agreements and licence for alteration reports can all be commissioned by owners and relevant parties to protect their interests and assess the condition and needs of the property. 

Building and Structural Surveys

Building and structural surveys are amongst the most comprehensive types of property surveys. They are concerned with the structural integrity of the building and, therefore, its safety and longevity. A structural issue can pose a significant safety risk and can substantially devalue a property, which is why it’s particularly important to have this type of survey carried out prior to making a property purchase. 

If a structural issue is overlooked, the new property owners could face months of disruptions and costs spiralling into hundreds of thousands of pounds in order to put it right. For many, this equates to serious financial issues and the potential loss of a much-needed asset. 

With a comprehensive survey, however, you can identify potential issues before you’re committed to making a property purchase and, therefore, enjoy peace of mind when you do decide to make an offer on a home or commercial property.

Energy Efficiency Surveys

Determining the energy efficiency of a building is important when it comes to assessing its carbon footprint and running costs. If a building has a low level of energy efficiency, it will cost more to heat and maintain, and it will emit more greenhouse gases (GHG) that cause harm to the environment. If energy efficiency is increased, however, energy consumption is reduced and energy costs and GHG emissions are lowered too. 

New technologies make it relatively easy to improve the energy efficiency of a building but, before you can determine their impact, you’ll need to obtain a baseline energy efficiency measurement. With help from property surveyors in Thornton, you can establish the energy efficiency of the building in its current condition and accurately measure any future changes to determine the increase in sustainability.
