Professional Building Surveyors
Southdown Surveyors are professional building surveyors in Hastings. We specialise in RICS Level 2 (formerly homebuyer report) and Level 3 (formerly building survey) Home Surveys. We also cover the surrounding areas including Bexhill and St Leonards on Sea for residential and commercial properties.
A Level 2 Home Survey is ideal for traditional houses, flats and bungalows that are in reasonable condition. It includes advice on defects that may affect the property, any repairs needed and general ongoing maintenance advice.
If the property is large, old, run-down, unusual, or if you are planning major work, a Level 3 Survey may be more suitable. Whilst a more costly option, it is a more tailored service that provides greater information about the property's structure. Both of these surveys have the option to include a Market Valuation and Reinstatement Cost Assessment if required.
