Top tips for a Normandy Home Buyers Survey


Normandy is a village in Surrey surrounded by hill ranges, north of the 'Hog's Back', which is the narrowest part of the North Downs. It is in a Green Belt area.

The Duke of Normandy, a local pub which closed in 2012, was built in the 1860s.

Housing comes from many different architectural periods. Most of the properties in the area are detached, some very large. There are few terrace properties and even fewer flats. There are bungalows and barn conversions and a number of country houses, particularly from the Georgian period.

The Guildford Road area has many different types of property, with Edwardian semi-detached houses, modern detached properties, Edwardian cottages and bungalows represented.

Plans to develop a site for 1,100 homes in the locale is being strongly contested by local residents' groups.

Flooding is known to affect various locations around Normandy. During heavy downpours, apparently all floodwater from the hill in Westwood Lane and fields (South of the railway embankment) eventually discharges into the culvert at the corner on the south side of the Lane outside “Meadow View” (flooded out on 3 separate occasions). Normandy is also known for subsidence issues, due to its clay soils.
A RICS surveyor will always give an overall opinion on a property surveyed in Normandy, to make sure any issues are summarised 'in a nutshell'.

A recent RICS HomeBuyer Report conducted on a property in Orchard Close noted the following overall opinion from the surveyor:

"The property is generally in satisfactory condition, although there are numerous elements requiring maintenance or minor repair. The vinyl floor tiles in the built-in hallway cupboard may contain asbestos. Boundaries require maintenance."

Raised levels of noise pollution from roads in Normandy area mainly centre around the main Guildford Road and the main roads coming off it such as Glaziers Lane.

SurreySurrey is located in the south east of England and is well known for its high property prices and leafy areas. Guildford is the county town, however Surrey County Council can be found just up the A3 in the neighbouring town Kingston Upon Thames. It was in Dorking in Surrey at the White Horse where Charles Dickens wrote much of his Pickwick Papers and apparently based many of the characters on local people

The University of Surrey can be found in Guildford, however Surrey also hosts the Royal Holloway University of London (Egham), University of Law & Kingston University. HG Wells, writer of War of the Worlds, lived at Horsell Common in Woking in Surrey when he wrote the book and this is where, in the book, the Martians first land on Earth.

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?

Our RICS Surveyor, during a Home Buyers Survey, inspects both the inside and the outside of your property and searches in particular for subsidence, damp, infestations and any cracks or other damage to the property.

The procedure is non-intrusive. It is highly recommended that you get one, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, if you are thinking of buying a property in Normandy.

NB If you're a first time buyer, you might wish to click on What is a House Survey to find out more, including what happens during the inspection.

If the Home Buyers Survey shows up any such problems, our appointed surveyor will explain to you what you should do to get more in-depth information about the type and scope of the matter and what is required to fix it.

If you are worried about any defects that you think your property in Normandy has, we strongly recommend you get a Home Buyers Survey as the cost of remedying the problem might grow to many thousands of pounds as time progresses.

Is a mortgage valuation a Building Survey?

Many mistakenly think that a mortgage valuation is the same as a HomeBuyers Survey and the consequence is that home buyers can subsequently have to shell out money for repairing faults and defects that could well have been part of the bargaining process with the seller on purchase. The surveyor appointed by the lender conducts a mortgage valuation to estimate the value of the property: this survey is not concerned with detailing structural defects.


A HomeBuyers Survey lists and reports on defects and includes a full appraisal and valuation of your property in Normandy which is completely independent of the mortgage lender. This knowledge can be used to get quotes for the cost of fixing defects and, most importantly, gives you evidence which can be used to bargain with the seller about sharing any such cost.


Does your property look like this?

Georgian Properties in Normandy
Georgian properties should only have a Level 3: Building Survey (formally called the full structural survey) completed by a competent RICS surveyor as the age of the property will command a more in-depth assessment of the property's build and structure. It is often common to have extensions to the property that need the keen eye of the surveyor to inspect the build quality. A HomeBuyer Report is not suited as it is only advisable to be used on flats bungalows and standard construction properties.

Does your property look different to this? Then read our guide on which survey suits your property type.
