Our Building Condition Survey
Our Building Condition Survey
Building Condition Surveys are fast becoming one of our most sought after inspection services. Our detailed and thorough inspections allow our clients to see first hand the exact condition the property is in. When it comes to high level buildings, one can not always see everything that could require attention.
We eliminate this risk entirely, by actively checking both visually and physically, each aspect of the building external fabric and roof areas. While something might appear to be in a sound condition, it often found to be defective just by touching it. By actually being right up against the property, in any position, we can determine exactly what requires attention.
Our Inspection Checks
Undertaking Building Condition Surveys, requires thorough and in-depth techniques. In order to determine the exact condition the building or property is in, all aspects of the external fabric and void spaces need checked. SAT inspectors conduct thorough inspections of the following areas:
