ABOUT THE SURVEY
What is a Level 3 Building Survey?
A RICS Level 3 Building Survey is the most detailed type of home survey. It goes further than a Level 2 Home Survey by providing a more thorough assessment of the property’s construction and condition, with detailed advice on any significant issues identified, the repairs that may be required and the property’s future maintenance needs.
Following the inspection, you will receive a detailed report covering significant defects, repair options and future maintenance considerations. It is designed to give you a fuller understanding of the property before you proceed with the purchase or plan any substantial works.
Is a Level 3 Building Survey right for you?
A Level 3 Building Survey is the right choice when you want the most detailed understanding of a property to help you make an informed decision.
- You want more detail than a Level 2 Home Survey provides
- The property is older, larger, extended or significantly altered
- You are planning refurbishment or substantial works
- You want detailed advice on defects, causes, repairs and future maintenance
For newer or more straightforward properties that appear to be in reasonable condition, a Level 2 Home Survey may provide the level of detail you need.
