As transportation connections to The City continue to improve and London property values increase, Surrey is becoming an increasingly desirable location for families and commuters alike. However, a seemingly attractive low asking price on a Surrey property might not be the bargain it appears to be if the property requires urgent repairs. Our RICS surveyors at Harding Chartered Surveyors can identify defects and provide cost estimates for necessary repairs through a comprehensive RICS level 3 Building Survey.

At Harding Chartered Surveyors, we pride ourselves on employing only highly trained, fully qualified, and diligent RICS chartered surveyors and registered valuers. Our team operates independently of lenders, ensuring unbiased property advice. If you're seeking expert guidance on properties in Epsom, Weybridge, or Egham, look no further than Harding Chartered Surveyors for reliable, professional assistance.

When selecting an RICS surveyor, it is essential to choose a professional who can provide responsive, knowledgeable, and impartial advice. An MRICS surveyor will be well-versed in all aspects of property assessment in highlighting property issues, from residential flats to commercial developments, and will be able to produce concise, easy-to-understand reports that give clients peace of mind. A thorough inspection, such as the RICS Homebuyer or full building survey, conducted by a qualified surveyor, ensures that the property purchase process runs smoothly, with minimal surprises along the way. Types of residential surveys we offer:

• RICS HomeBuyer Report
  The RICS HomeBuyer report utilises a traffic light system to highlight urgent defects in a property. You can also request an optional valuation as part of the survey.
• Snagging Lists
  If you’re purchasing a new-build home, you can ensure your housing developer repairs all problems before your arrival by obtaining a Snagging List.
• Full Building Survey
  Unlike the most basic RICS HomeBuyer Report, our Full Building Survey features photographs, detailed reports and a cost-estimate to resolve any problems.
