Top tips for a Hayes Home Buyers Survey

Hayes is an area with a long history – it had an entry in the Domesday Book of 1086. There are certain buildings which are very old, such as St Mary's Church (the central portion dates back to the 12th century), but there has been considerable industrial development – there is a large industrial estate – and Hayes became well-known for factories such as EMI's Old Vinyl Factory.

Most of Hayes' residential properties were built post-1930s and there are the ubiquitous semi-detached properties as well as medium-rise flat blocks such as around the junction of Church Road and the Uxbridge Road.

There are a fair few modern developments, some of which offer shared ownership, such as Sheringham Court in Clayton Road and the Vantage Building near to Hayes Station.


Survey Tip 1	Survey Tip 2	Survey Tip 3
Properties in Hayes built in close proximity to the River Crane, in streets such as Roseville Road and North Hyde Gardens, are in areas which are sometimes subject to flood alerts and warnings from time to time. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details).	Some properties in Hayes may be located in an area which is subject to a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). A recent local authority search for a property in Marina Approach, Hayes, UB4 9TB revealed that it was within a CIL area. The Community Infrastructure Levy is a planning charge, introduced by the Planning Act 2008 as a tool for local authorities in England and Wales to help deliver infrastructure to support the development of their area. It came into force on 6 April 2010 through the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010. Development may be liable for a charge under the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL), if your local planning authority has chosen to set a charge in its area.

Raised levels of noise pollution from railways centre around the Great Western Line, passing through Hayes & Harlington Station and affecting nearby streets such as Clayton Road and Keith Road. Noise levels are likely to be highest where the railway goes under The Parkway, affecting nearby streets such as North Hyde Gardens and Trident Way.

Middlesex is a county located in south east of England, however many parts of Middlesex are now commonly known as part of Greater London, with small sections in neighbouring counties.

Strictly speaking Middlesex as a concept is only kept in existence by many people continuing to name it as a county on postal addresses and other contributors such as Middlesex County Cricket Club, whose home ground is at Lord's in St John's Wood, just outside Central London. It is still loved despite it not having any form of administrative function etc.

People hearing about Middlesex assume it was/is a large county because of the amount of Greater London territory (West and North London and Westminster, with the Thames as its southern boundary) which lies within its borders. It is actually the second smallest county in the UK. Middlesex was established in the Anglo-Saxon system from the territory of the Middle Saxons. The largely low-lying county's soil is dominated by clay in its north and alluvium on gravel in its south.

Middlesex contains locations as diverse as Teddington (where the tidal Thames normally finishes), Enfield, Notting Hill, Ickenham, Ealing (where the famous film studios which produced so much early film comedy still exists), Hampstead and Southall.

Does a surveyor report on signs of infestation?

A RICS surveyor will always highlight any signs or suspicions of infestations during their inspection of a property, whether this is the visible signs of droppings, jagged markings from insect tunnelling or burrowings.

The main culprits of infestation in property are rats and mice, woodworm and termites, dry/wet rot and Japanese Knotweed and surveyors will highlight signs of these to you over the phone or within their report and will always direct you to a specialist to ascertain the remedy for removal.

HomeBuyers Report in Hayes

A HomeBuyers Report is general visual inspection for flats, new properties or bungalows of standard construction. Most leasehold flats in Hayes should have a HomeBuyers Report, however the only exception are converted properties which may need a Building Survey.
