10 Excellent detail, easy to understand and great customer service - highly recommend
Posted 26 May
Highly recommend Home Approved based on my recent experience of having a full structural survey on a converted maisonette in a period property. The level of detail combined with risks, advice and estimated costs has been invaluable for me when considering whether to move forwards with this property. The survey content was well structured, easy to digest and Matthew was on hand to discuss questions I had off the back of this and provide impartial advice. I also really appreciated their flexibility having had to move survey dates a few times earlier in the process. 10/10Verified reviewerJob location: GU2110 Home Survey - Great Service and Detailed Report

Job location: GU22The company had offered professional service. They promised to provide the level 3 report in 3 working days. For me, I received the report 2 days after the survey was performed. As a result, I have more time to review details about the property prior to proceed next steps.10 Great service - definitely recommend

Working throughout Guildford, Surrey, London, Kent and the Home Counties, Home-Approved has built an enviable reputation as professional building surveyors offering a range of surveying services. We take great pride in what we do and our aim is to consistently benefit our clients.
Building Surveys
A Home-Approved Level 3 Building Survey (formerly known as a full building survey or a full structural survey) comprises a thorough inspection of the property and a comprehensive report
based on our findings. Unlike a standard Home Buyer Report, our reports include photographs and cost estimates associated with any identified defects. The Home-Approved structural survey report is presented in a clear format, jargon-free and supported by photographic evidence of all identified defects. Because some defects can be more serious than others i.e. structural rather than cosmetic, we present required repairs in terms of priority. If you proceed with the purchase of the property, our report will then help you plan and budget for future repairs.
Party Wall Services
We provide expert Party Wall advice and services. Abiding by the Party Wall Act can become a complicated process, but Home-Approved makes it simple and transparent. As members of the Faculty of Party Wall Surveyors, our surveyors have a thorough and in-depth understanding of the Act and will work to ensure that all requirements of the Act are upheld and fair to all owners.
Specific Defect Surveys investigate a particular structural defect on a building that has been identified in a pre-purchase report or because the building owner has become concerned about some cracking or evidence of potential damage.
Specific defect surveys are a focused structural survey that focuses on the cause of the defect, recommends what is required to rectify the issue, and most importantly, how much the work is likely to cost.
A Home-Approved surveyor works with both building and homeowners and will inspect, report and advise on a range of building defects including:
· Roof problems
· Damp and condensation
· Cracks, subsidence and trees
What makes us so different to other surveyors?
We provide a personal and professional service that is fully focused on giving you the information you’ll need. We carry out a thorough visual inspection and use specialist equipment – including long reach cameras – so that we can even check those parts of a property that would otherwise be ignored or overlooked.
