When an offer has been accepted on a property, it is common place for a house survey to be completed a qualified surveyor, these should be registered with a professional body, such as the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). They will inspect the property's condition, which identifies problems to a prospective buyer. A report is produced and with this allows the buyer the opportunity to avoid any surprises, make informed decisions and where required negotiate on work that may need to be completed prior to or after the sale of a property. There are 3 levels of surveys available to potential buyers, which vary in cost, level of inspection etc.
On occasion Damp Problems or Damp Issues may be highlighted such as Rising Damp or Penetrating Damp, at this point it is often a good idea to get in a Damp Specialist to conduct a full survey on the area in question, from this they can provide a thorough report including an understanding of the works that may need to be completed and a quote for such work.
