Local Tip 1 | Local Tip 2 | Local Tip 3 |
Dwellings in close proximity to the River Thames in Kingston-upon Thames or the River Hogsmill are subject to being issued with flood alerts from time to time. Those around the confluence of these two water courses, particularly centring around Eden Street, have additionally received flood warnings 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). | The Building Surveyor will aim to inform you of the current situation of the property being inspected an dopinion provided using tyhe surveyor's local experience. An example of this is in a recent Building Survey in Beresford Road, Kingston-upon-Thames, Surrey, KT2 6LR, where we state the property is situated on the south side of Beresford Road which is a quiet road to the north of the town centre. The locality is a well-established residential area of mainly Victorian houses. Local shopping facilities are within a few minutes walk. Kingston town centre is easily accessible on foot or by public transport. Parking is available in the street but a Resident’s Parking Permit will be required and visitors will need to display a temporary parking permit to avoid the risk of parking tickets. | Many of the Victorian houses found in Kingston-Upon-Thames have two main pitched slopes which meet at a central ridge parallel with the larger dimension of the house. The slopes are normally covered with traditional slates with special blue clay tiles bedded in mortar along the ridge. The tiles will need to be examined slating from ground level to ensure known are cracked or missing. |
