How long does a RICS Building Survey take?
RICS Surveyors often only have one or two inspections a day to ensure they allocate adequate time to assess a property for its defects and issues.
On average our surveyors will spend two to three hours on a standard sized home to complete the full Level 3 RICS Building Survey, however, this can vary for a number of reasons.
It may be that there has been major works done to the property or a major defect is discovered and requires further investigation or access to all areas of the property is not immediately available. This is why our surveyors do not operate with time constraints – they stay on site as long as they need to complete the full inspection.
