Top tips for a Teddington Home Buyers Survey


Teddington, famous for its lock where the tidal Thames meets the fresh water Thames, is a pretty riverside town. Its housing stock is mainly from the Victorian period, whether larger detached houses or cottages, but there are examples of properties from all the periods since then.

There are, for example, superb modern flats in Cambridge House, which overlooks Bushy Park. The area does have council houses, such as can be found in Queens Road, where properties are in the form of medium-rise flats, built in the interwar period. .

Properties in Teddington built in close proximity to the River Thames such as in Kingston Road, Strawberry Vale and Broom Road have been subject to flood warnings and alerts 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).
RICS HomeBuyer Reports for properties in Teddington always remark on the services (gas, water electricity) connected to a home according to the visual inspection carried out.


A recent HomeBuyer Report for a property in Stanley Gardens Road noted that there was no ventilation system in the bathroom and that this could be a future threat because of the build-up of condensation and subsequent mould growth. The surveyor recommended that an appropriate ventilation system should be fitted accordingly.
Pollution from noise in the Teddington area is most notably raised where the railway line crosses (goes under) the main A313 and affects the streets surrounding this area, such as The Causeway, Church Lane and Sydney Road.

LondonGreater London is an area which contains London, the capital of the United Kingdom (which itself centres on the Cities of London and Westminster) and a number of surrounding boroughs which are administered as London boroughs and which are the overall executive responsibility of the Mayor of London. It contains a large number of constituencies, each represented by an MP and it should be noted that these are not the same as nor even always continguous with the borders of the boroughs.

Many parts of Greater London were originally administered by the counties which surround London and these counties are often called the home counties. Enfield, for example, used to be classed as being part of Middlesex, but is now near the northern border of Greater London. Greater London's borders often coincide with a zone of 'green belt': areas where it has been decided that open spaces, parks, forests and wildlife reserves should act as a buffer against urban sprawl. London has numerous landmarks, anything from Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament to Karl Marx's grave in Highgate Cemetery.

Greater London contains more than 9 million inhabitants, a number growing daily, and as this is approximately 1/7 of the population of the UK, it can be seen that Greater Londoners have a large influence on the rest of the country politically and this is enhanced by the concentration of skilled workers gravitating towards the capital.

Is a Mortgage valuation a defect survey?

It is a common misconception that a mortgage valuation is a HomeBuyers Survey and this can leave HomeBuyers exposed to high repair costs that could have been negotiated with the seller. A mortgage valuation is conducted by the lender’s surveyor to assess the value of the property you are interested in buying in Teddington and they do not provide a detailed report on structural defects.

A HomeBuyers Survey details defects and includes a full appraisal of the property independently to anyone else including the mortgage lender. You can use the information to obtain quotes to fix any defects and gives you the evidence to potentially share the costs with the seller.

Most savvy buyers make sure they get a HomeBuyers survey from an independent surveyor to make sure the property they are buying is free from defects. Call us on 0207 112 5388 to get the best HomeBuyers survey for your property in Teddington.

Does your property look like this?

Georgian Properties in Teddington
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.
