Does the RICS Level 3 Building Survey include advice on extension works?
The RICS Building Survey report is a detailed defect report based on a visual inspection carried out by a Chartered Surveyor.
The report is detailed and often includes photographs and a list itemising any defects identified with comment on any recommendations for remedial works or further investigations by specialists if required.
The report is detailed and often includes photographs and a list itemising any defects identified with comment on any recommendations for remedial works or further investigations by specialists if required.
Advice on future works does not form part of the report but most surveyors are happy to provide their expert opinion on whether proposed works are possible. They may look at the position of manhole covers, height of the roof in the loft space, the floor joists in the loft space, and other structural indicators which would impede any proposed plans.
This falls outside of the written report and any communications are usually provided on site or on the phone post inspection.
