Top tips for a Chertsey Home Buyers Survey
Chertsey's town centre has excellent large properties dating from its time as a market town from the late medieval period up to the early 19th century. The railway arrived in 1849 but most of the housing was built in the interwar period and post-war.
Houses built in the mid to late 19th century can be found around Grove Road and Alwyns Lane and these are mainly 2-storey with slated roof housing and brick and clay tiles.
There were many council houses built in the interwar period around the Bellbridge Road and Cowley Avenue areas and private houses built around Weir Road and Bridge Roard in the same period. These are mainly semi-detached properties.
Around Pyrcroft Road and areas nearby you find many standard construction mainly semi-detached houses built post-war and near Roakes Avenue and the north and south of Mead Lane, there are houses built from the 1970s. There are also new build developments here and there with some offering shared ownership.

Chertsey has been prone to floods, particularly in the areas in close proximity to the Bourne, the Abbey River and the River Thames and the many lakes affecting streets such as Blacksmiths Lane and Drill Hall Road. 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). | Vermin can enter properties at any time. If this occurs, you should consult a pest control firm for advice on how to treat the infestation and to prevent infestation in the future. | There are small radon gas readings in certain parts of Chertsey, including along the Staines Road, Thorpe Road and St Ann's Road. |

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?
A Home Buyers Survey is completed by a qualified RICS surveyor and delivers a visual inspection of the property in Chertsey and the surrounding garden. The aim of the survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, is to identify potential risks or defects that you may not know are there such as cracks or damage to the structure of the property, subsidence, damp and infestations.
