I always recommend to clients that they commission a full building survey of the property they are thinking of buying, it helps to ensure they sleep well having bought it! Some surveyors can be dull and struggle at a human level. What most people want is someone who can confirm what the state of a property is, report in layman’s terms but who will flag up anything that really matters.
I’ve worked with lots over the years. These are the firms and individuals I use regularly and am happy to recommend.
