  • Are typically less than 100 years of age

  • Are built of conventional building materials and construction methods

  • Have service systems commonly used in domestic residential properties

Level 3 Building Survey In Rutland

Essential for larger or older properties, or if you’re planning major works in the Rutland region.

Formerly known as a ‘Structural Survey’ this report option is the most comprehensive report and provides you with an in-depth analysis of the property’s condition, including advice on defects, repairs and maintenance options.

Heritage Surveys in Rutland

A detailed report is one of the most valuable tools you can have when buying a Listed Building. It is essential to understand a building's condition and any repairs that need to be made.

Carpenters Heritage Division specialises in the inspection and survey of historic houses. It is staffed by surveyors who have considerable experience in surveying a broad range of historic properties.

Acquiring a historic house is for most people a rewarding and happy experience. For some people, however, the experience can be quite the opposite. Whilst people wish to own a historic house for the right reasons, there are many pitfalls and potential problems which can turn those wishes into a costly mistake. We’re here to help.

RICS Valuations in Rutland

Valuation underpins all property decision making. Whether you’re a national bank, property developer, or a private buyer. Value is important. That’s why you should be very careful about who you consider to do it. You can trust Carpenters to give you the insight you need in a Market Valuation, or a Building Survey.  

It can be complex and challenging to reliably establish value, with many variables to consider on a property-by-property basis.

Our reports are clear, unambiguous and well thought through. That’s why lenders will often ask for Carpenters by name!
