Top tips for a Guildford Home Buyers Survey
Guildford has a High Street paved with granite setts often referred to as cobbles – these were originally laid in 1864 and a castle, Guildford Castle, dating back to Norman times. There are highly sought-after Victorian terraced properties in Recreation Road and Jenner Road, among other locations.
There are also council estates built post-war in Bellfields, Stoughton and Park Barn as well as many new build flats being completed in various areas. These flats fall under the Help to Buy and shared ownership schemes.

Local Tip 1 | Local Tip 2 | Local Tip 3 |
According to the UK Government's Public Health England, Guildford is in a raised Radon area, with properties built there having a higher probability than average of experiencing ground radon emissions. The centre, including streets such as Artillery Road and Drummond Road, has a maximum radon potential of 1-3% and parts of the outskirts to the east and west, including streets such as Harvey Road and Addison Road, having a maximum radon potential of 5-10% (the percentage is the chance of a property being built where Radon emissions might measure above the action level). | Properties which are situated in the immediate vicinity of the River Wey and the Tilling Bourne are in flood warning and flood alert areas. Flooding has actually occurred considerably over the years, particularly when the River Wey burst its banks and flooded the Bedford Road carpark in 2000. 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). | The highest average ambient noise levels in Guildford are experienced in the vicinity of the A3 and the A25. |

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 Guildford 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.
