Chartered Surveyor & Building Surveys in West Sussex

Building Surveys and HomeBuyer Reports in West Sussex

If you are searching for chartered surveyors or a building surveyor in West Sussex, Iridium provides independent residential surveying led by an experienced Chartered Surveyor. Coverage includes Horsham, Crawley, Haywards Heath, Burgess Hill, Worthing, Chichester, Arundel, East Grinstead and surrounding areas.

For many conventional homes, a Level 2 Home Survey may be appropriate. This is the type of survey commonly searched for as a HomeBuyer Report or homebuyers report. It identifies significant visible defects, repair and maintenance issues, risks and matters that may require further investigation before legal commitment.

A Level 3 Building Survey provides greater depth and is generally more suitable for older, altered, extended, unusual or visibly defective buildings, or where substantial works are planned.

Local property and building issues

West Sussex has a varied property stock ranging from modern housing to period town houses, rural cottages and historic buildings. The appropriate level of survey depends on construction, age, alterations, visible defects and the purchaser's plans for the property.

Historic and period buildings

Iridium also undertakes surveys of historic and traditionally constructed property, with consideration of solid-wall construction, lime mortars, timber, moisture behaviour and the effect of inappropriate modern repairs where relevant.
