Langford Building Surveyors

Full structural survey in Langford

GEM Surveyors are independent buildings surveyors who can provide full structural surveys, often referred to as building surveys, on the property you are intending to purchase or lease. A house survey will give you the following:

Peace of mind that the house has no major structural problems or if it has building solutions and anticipated costs to carry out work.
Save you money, in that if the survey identifies any property problems, i.e. re-roofing, you can ask for a discount in the purchase price.
100% Impartial, independent property advice. GEM Surveyors are independent, meaning we are not affiliated to any bank, building society or estate agent and will therefore be working in your best interests and not that of other parties.
