Properties in some areas of Penzance may be affected by surface water flooding. Properties within Alexandra Road, Wharf Road are key areas where dwellings can be affected by surface water flooding as a result of heavy rainfall. If you are buying a property with a mortgage, a solicitor may advise that you get an additional Flood Risk Report (click to find out more). |
According to the UK Government's Public Health England, all properties within Penzance are in a raised radon area. Properties in close proximity to streets such as Jennings Street, Union Street and St Clare Street have a higher chance than average of being affected by radon emission. The raised Radon area has a maximum radon potential of greater than 30% and at least 10 - 30% (the percentage is the chance of a property being built where Radon emissions might measure above the action level). |
Where roof tiles are laid to straight regular courses a Penzance based building surveyor will need to inspect if they appear to be in a poor condition and in need of repair. A closer inspection from a ladder may reveal the presence of cracked tiles. Tiles specialised for Georgian properties found along Alexander Place may need to be rebedded. When buying a property with a mortgage, it is important to get a property survey to assess the condition of the dwelling. If the property needs repair due to the condition of the tiles, Apex Roofing can be found at 2 Pine Rd, Penzance TR18 4QY. |
