Pre Purchase Surveys
Buying a property, whether your first step on the property ladder to a larger property for a growing family, to downsizing, it may be the most expensive purchase you are likely to make. It is therefore very important that you take precautions and have the property properly checked before you purchase. Apex Property Care Surveyors can help identify potential or on-going issues and provide a report with budget costs before you buy, allowing you to decide to walk away or buy that dream Home.

Damp, decay or roof concerns when buying a property?
Once you have read the Home Report on your dream property, you may come across comments from the surveyor which gives their risk factor relating to anything from damp, decay, roof concerns, drainage and general condition of the property.
Apex Property Care surveyors are CSRT qualified to comment on all damp and timber problems that may have been given a 2 or a 3 in the Home Report.
Sometimes under the heading of Damp or Timber defects, the Surveyor has given a 2 or a 3, suggesting further investigations are needed.
When we carry out our specialist inspections, we need clear and detailed information as to where we have to concentrate our own inspection. Sometimes, there is a recommendation for a particular part of the property, while in other cases, a full detailed inspection is required. It is helpful to have a copy of the Home Report before heading out to the survey.
Make sure you have no hidden surprises before you buy
If the Home Report recommends a Timber and Damp Specialist Surveyor, call Apex Property Care.
These surveys can be carried out at short notice ( depending on gaining access) and a verbal report and budget costs can be given after the inspection.
There is a fee for this service, so please call us for more information.
All our Pre-Purchase surveys involve a fee and will include a short written report, together with budget costs.
These surveys are non-disruptive.
