Independent Home Buyers Surveys
Avamont Surveying has been providing home buyers surveys for two decades, helping clients across Reading, Windsor, Egham, and Guildford make informed property purchases. A home buyers survey gives you a clear understanding of a property’s condition before contracts are signed, ensuring you have the right information to move forward with confidence.
Why a Home Buyers Survey Matters
Buying a property is one of the biggest financial commitments you will make. A home buyers survey highlights potential problems that may not be visible during a viewing. These surveys can identify issues with structure, maintenance, or safety, giving you the chance to renegotiate or budget for repairs.
What Our Surveys Include
A home buyers survey provides a detailed overview of the property’s current state. At Avamont Surveying, our reports are straightforward and easy to understand, with each inspection covering key areas such as:
- Roof condition and coverings
- Walls, floors, ceilings, and structure
- Windows, doors, and joinery
- Plumbing, electrics, and heating systems (visible checks)
- Damp, leaks, and water ingress
- Drainage and insulation
- External elements including gardens, garages, and outbuildings
Benefits of a Home Buyers Survey
Arranging a survey before you buy ensures that you know exactly what you are purchasing. Our surveys can:
- Highlight urgent repairs or safety concerns
- Provide evidence for price renegotiation
- Estimate future maintenance requirements
- Help buyers plan budgets effectively
- Reduce the risk of unexpected costs later
- Offer reassurance when the property is in good condition
RICS Home Buyers Reports
We are approved members of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), which means our home buyers reports meet trusted professional standards. A RICS home buyers survey provides recognised documentation that can be used with lenders, solicitors, and insurance providers, making it a valuable part of the purchase process.
Drone Support for Home Buyers Surveys
For properties where access is limited, we also provide drone surveys. These allow us to assess high roofs, chimneys, and other external areas in detail. Drone imagery adds an extra layer of accuracy to your home buyers survey, ensuring all visible defects are recorded and reported.
