"Competitively priced service, the agent I dealt with was very helpful. On the day of the survey itself I received a call from the surveyor to run through his initial findings. The quality of the report produced was excellent, very detailed and thorough. If needed I will be using SAM Conveyancing's services again in the future for sure."
Defects flagged in a Rustington Home Buyers Survey
Parts of the Chichester and Bognor District around Rustington are at risk of subsidence due to the dissolution of the Chalk, cambering, landslip, swelling clay, flooding, buried clifflines, and sunken lanes.
Book a survey with one of our local Billingham RICS Surveyors, who are trained to spot signs of subsidence and forewarn you before you sign contracts.
The Rustington seafront and areas alongside Mewsbrook Park are at low to high risk of flooding.
Flooding and proximity to bodies of water can lead to damp problems in homes. Our local Rustington RICS Surveyor will look for signs of damp or rot and include these in their report.
The village of Rustington has expanded outwards from The Street, with many new homes built through the 19th century, joining the village into the Brighton and Hove developed area. Asbestos was widely used on houses built between the 30s and 70s, which is deadly when disturbed.
Get a home survey from one of our local Rustington RICS Surveyors. They will flag any visible signs of asbestos in their report.
