The RICS Level 3 Building Survey

The most comprehensive property report for older, altered, or non-standard homes.

An RICS Level 3 Building Survey (formerly known as a Full Structural Survey) provides a thorough in-depth analysis of a property's condition and structural integrity. It is strongly recommended for properties that are over 50 years old, listed buildings, or those constructed with non-standard materials. This detailed inspection is essential if you are planning significant alterations or if the property has been extensively renovated in the past, ensuring you have a complete technical understanding before committing to the purchase.

Expert Repair Advice

Practical guidance on necessary repairs and maintenance, including estimated costs and timelines to help you plan your investment.

Comprehensive Inspection Scope

Structural Integrity
