Housing Conditions

Housing Conditions Surveys assess the overall condition, safety, and habitability of residential properties. They are particularly useful for landlords, tenants, housing associations, and legal professionals seeking robust, impartial reports to support disrepair claims, tenancy disputes, or compliance checks.

Our surveys combine technical expertise with practical inspection methods, using advanced tools such as thermal imaging cameras, moisture meters, drones, and boroscopes to identify hidden issues and confirm building stability. Every inspection follows current standards to ensure accurate, CPR-compliant reporting.

Reports highlight key aspects of a property including general condition, stability, damp, layout, natural light, ventilation, hot and cold water, drainage, and cooking facilities. For properties in England, surveys also check for hazards under the Housing Health and Safety Regulations 2005, ensuring all relevant matters are addressed.

We produce clear, actionable findings tailored to each property. Our reports are fully independent, meticulously prepared, and suitable for legal, insurance, or dispute-resolution purposes. By providing precise recommendations and condition assessments, we help clients manage risk, plan repairs, and resolve housing-related issues efficiently.
