Building Survey Overview
A Building Survey is the most thorough and detailed report that you can commission on the condition of a property. The survey is usually carried out by a Chartered Surveyor who will be a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) in which case he or she will have the letters MRICS or FRICS after his or her name. The RICS ensures that all its members maintain professional standards in their work. When commissioning a Chartered Surveyor to carry out a survey you should be able to feel confident that the results will be appropriate for your needs.
What is a Home Buyer Survey?
A homebuyer survey covers a couple of different types of survey, so you need to make sure you know what you want before placing any orders.
A HomeBuyer Report (which can also include a valuation as an addition) is provided by RICS approved Surveyors. This will not include as much detail as a Building Survey, but typically does highlight anything that will have a affect on the value of the property or anything that will require further attention. It only covers areas that can be seen without having to take any further action – so they will not drill into walls or lift up carpets.
A Homebuyer Survey could be provided by a non-RICS registered Surveyor, or by a Home Inspector or Energy Assessor. This does not have a standard format, so you will really need to discuss your requirements prior to the commencement of any work to make sure you are getting everything you need.

Frequently Asked Questions
Below is a list of answers to Frequently Asked Questions about Building Surveys:
When is a building survey necessary?
A building survey is necessary for various situations, including:
When purchasing an older property
Before undertaking extensive renovations or alterations
When concerns arise about the property's condition
And properties with complex structures or unique features
Can a building survey uncover hidden defects?
Yes, a building survey is designed to uncover hidden defects or issues that may not be visible to the untrained eye. The surveyor will use specialised tools and techniques to identify potential problems within the property's structure or systems.
Are building surveys and homebuyer's surveys the same?
No, a building survey and a homebuyer's survey are different. A homebuyer's survey is a less detailed and more standardised inspection, primarily focusing on significant issues that could affect the property's value. A building survey, on the other hand, delivers a more thorough analysis of the property's situation.
Can a building survey provide estimated repair costs?
Yes, the surveyor may include recommendations for repairs or maintenance, along with an approximate cost breakdown to help property owners or buyers understand the potential expenses involved.
Are building surveys only for residential properties?
No, building surveys are not limited to residential properties. They can also be conducted for commercial buildings, industrial properties, historical structures, and other types of real estate.
