Question 6

Can I accompany the Surveyor on the survey?

If you are having a survey undertaken on a house you are buying, unfortunately you cannot accompany the Surveyor on the survey. However, we are happy for the Surveyor to call or meet with you post survey to discuss the findings of the survey prior to the release of your final survey report.

Question 7

How detailed are your reports?

We take pride in our survey reports and ensure the highest level of detail with all visually identifiable building defects noted within the report. Our goal is to make sure that you know exactly what defects are present at the property and if we suspect defects may be hidden, we may recommend further investigation.
