A full inspection of all aspects of the property using a traffic light system to identify areas where no work is required, attention is required and matters which are dangerous, urgent or expensive to repair.
The aim of the report is to advise you of works required and potential maintenance going forward. This is a very user friendly report and, although extensive, is easy to read.
We do not use prepopulated report writing software and each and every report is unique and tailored to the specific task in hand.
Our level 2 service includes a valuation which is carried out in accordance with the RICS Valuation – Global Standards 2022 (The Red Book) as well as a reinstatement valuation for insurance purposes.
The RICS are a globally recognised governing body for chartered surveyors. The Red Book regulates the way in which we conduct and report valuations, producing a result upon which you can rely for all circumstances where a valuation is required. Matthew Coombs and David Ashdown are both registered valuers for the RICS.
If your valuation request falls outside of the parameters of a Red Book Valuation we are able to produce a bespoke document relevant to your needs.
