Top tips for a Esher Home Buyers Survey
Esher is on the old London to Portsmouth road and has a wonderful grand 18th century house called Claremont near its town centre (built 1768 and owned, but never lived in, by Clive of India).
Esher's housing mainly consists of 1920s and 1930s detached houses on private estates, as well as Victorian workmen's cottages. There are fine Arts & Crafts-inspired houses, built in the 1920s and 1930s, in Clive Road and Clare Hill, which have red brick, leaded windows and gable ends.
There are plenty of semi-detached and detached 1920s and 1930s houses around Esher Station and Hinchley Wood.
There are also newer developments, many of them large and very well-appointed. Hinchley Park in Hengest Avenue offers a fair spectrum of new builds, from one-bed maisonettes to 5-bedroom houses.

Dwellings in the area to the north and west of Esher station, including in streets such as Ember Lane and Lower Green Road, receive flood alerts and warnings, particularly the homes built around Thames Ditton and Esher Golf Club. 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). | Ridge tiles are often used on properties in Esher and should be checked by you, or your surveyor during the purchase of your property. Ridge tiles may appear to be firmly bedded atpresent but the mortar tends to weather and eventually the tiles will needto be rebedded - this may take several years depending on the weather conditions. | Felt is often used underneath tiles on the roof and your Building Surveyor should check this. In time, exposed felt may break up and if this occurs, remedial action will be required by a reputable roofing contractor such as Esher Roofing, 20 Dalmore Avenue, Claygate, Esher, Surrey, KT10 0HQ on 01372 815 938. |

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 Esher 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.
