Thanks for requesting a survey quote!

We'll give you a call shortly and run through a bespoke quote for your property. If you're happy, we'll arrange access and then our local RICS surveyor will complete the inspection and call you on the day to run through any major defects.

Our detailed reports get emailed within 5 working days (or less if you are working to a tight deadline). We’d love the opportunity to help you because we treat your move as if it were our own.

We'll respond on the same day if you contact us before 4 pm Mon-Fri. After 4 pm, we'll come back to you first thing the next working day.

"The process was simple and efficient from the moment I contacted SAM conveyancing to receiving the surveyors report. The survey was done on a Friday, the report was in my inbox on Monday! The report was thorough and very clear and easy to understand. Thank you, highly recommend."

In addition to your main Home Survey, you may require more specialist surveys. If you suspect any of the issues above, you can go ahead and book a specialist survey for a property you already own. If you are purchasing a new property (unless a specialist defect is already confirmed) we would recommend you wait to hear back from your surveyor, who can recommend whether the cost of additional surveys are necessary.

What happens when we survey a property?

You'll have a single point of contact at SAM, who will handle everything:
  • We'll arrange access with the estate agent or the seller, for your surveyor to get into the property.
  • Your surveyor will get the sales particulars and EPC from the agent.
  • Both Level 2 and Level 3 Home Surveys are non-intrusive, unless there is prior written consent from the seller and this is confirmed in the scope of work. This means they will inspect all accessible areas of the property but will not drill holes or remove flooring, secured panels or electrical fittings.
  • The surveyor will inspect for an array of defects, or in the case of a specialist survey, they will investigate a specific issue.
  • The surveyor will call you on the day of the inspection to run through any major issues.
  • The surveyor will prepare a written report detailing their findings, as well as flagging any parts of the property where access was limited - for example, if the buyer had stacked heavy items in the attic, preventing a proper inspection of the roof or gable wall.
  • If required works are discovered, your solicitor will negotiate with the sellers solicitor to adjust the price accordingly, using your surveyor's report.
