Our Level 3 building survey provides the most detailed inspection available. Portsmouth surveyors recommend this full building survey for older or more complex properties, unique property types, and homes that have had significant alterations.
A Level 3 survey (also known as a full building survey or RICS building survey) is the most thorough type of survey available. Our qualified surveyor in Portsmouth will conduct a detailed inspection of the condition of the building, examining all accessible areas including:
The Level 2 survey (RICS Homebuyer Report) is the most popular survey choice for property buyers in Portsmouth. This homebuyers survey provides essential information about the condition of the property without the full detail of a Level 3 survey.
Our Level 2 survey provides a clear traffic light rating system (red, amber, green) to show the condition of different parts of your property. The house survey in Portsmouth includes:
This homebuyer report is ideal for standard types of property in reasonable condition built in the last 150 years. It provides the right balance of detail and value for most property purchases across Portsmouth and Hampshire.
A RICS condition report (Level 1 survey) provides a basic overview of a property's condition. Our surveyors in Portsmouth offer this cost-effective option for newer homes and properties in good condition.
The Level 1 survey is suitable for relatively new properties in good condition, such as modern apartments at Gunwharf Quays or recent developments across Portsmouth. It uses the same traffic light rating system as a Level 2 survey but with less detail. The condition report identifies urgent defects and potential issues but doesn't include a market valuation or detailed advice on repairs.
We also offer specialist new build snagging surveys for buyers purchasing newly constructed homes across Portsmouth and the surrounding areas. Our building surveyor will inspect your new property before completion, identifying:

Incomplete fittings, missing components, touch-ups required
