Noise pollution from road and rail in Bracknell is at its highest in the vicinity of the Twin Bridges Roundabout/Berkshire Way where the railway line is located next to a busy roundabout.. |
Raised levels of noise pollution from roads in the Bracknell area are particularly raised around the A329/Berkshire Way, affecting streets nearby such as Beehive Road and Butler Drive. Raised levels of noise pollution from railways in the area accompany the main line which runs alongside the aforesaid Berkshire Way, making this thoroughfare a hot-spot for noise pollution.. |
Chiney stacks service a fireplace normally found in the living room and are normally built of brickwork and fitted with lead flashings at the junction with the tiling. In a recent inspection in The Green, Bracknell, Berkshire, RG12 7BG, the mortar joints were not unduly weathered but the joints to the top courses tend to weather more due to their exposed position. If repointing is required in the future, it is recommended that you engage a specialist to quote for carrying out any necessary work which will be relatively expensive as scaffolding will be needed for access and safe working |
Berkshire is a county which touches a small part of the borders of West London. It is a home county (because it borders Greater London) and is often called Royal Berkshire because it contains Windsor and Windsor Castle. It hosts a number of iconic UK landmarks such as Ascot (Ascot Racecourse), Wentworth (Golf Course), Sunningdale (Golf Course), Virginia Water and Windsor Great Park and Eton School. Virginia Water was the first postcode area where the average property price exceeded one million.Like many of the home counties, there are many essentially commuter dormitory settlements which house London workers. Reading (which is Berkshire's county town) in particular is a larger one and is popular because of its very fast rail links with Central London - there are many one-stop services to London Paddington and it is also due to be the western terminus of the Crossrail line.

When should you book your survey?
A survey from booking to getting your report should normally take around 2 to 3 weeks depending on the time of year (busy periods are July, August and December).
The best advice is to instruct your surveyor at the same time as you instruct your solicitor. The reason being is that your solicitor tells you of any legal reason to not buy the property and the surveyor will look to tell you if their is any visual reason to stop buying or to renegotiate the selling price.
