Standalone inspection

Independent advice on damp, moisture and condensation.

Damp symptoms can have several causes, including leaks, external defects, raised ground levels, poor ventilation and condensation. Our chartered surveyor considers the building as a whole and provides an independent assessment rather than recommending a treatment product.

What the service covers

Focused inspection, useful answers.

01

Visual inspection

We examine the affected rooms and accessible external areas for staining, damaged finishes, mould, defective rainwater goods, cracks and other relevant signs.

02

Moisture readings

Electronic readings support the inspection and are interpreted alongside the building’s materials, condition, ventilation and recent weather.

03

Likely causes

The report distinguishes symptoms from likely sources and explains where more than one issue may be contributing to the problem.

04

Practical priorities

You receive clear advice on maintenance, ventilation, repair or further investigation, with urgent matters separated from longer-term improvements.

05

Independent findings

Surrey Surveyors does not sell damp-proofing work. Recommendations are based on the evidence visible at the inspection.

06

Clear limitations

The survey is non-invasive. Concealed areas are not opened up, and specialist testing may be recommended where the cause cannot be established visually.

Before you book

The right inspection for the question you need answered.

A standalone inspection focuses on a defined concern and is not a substitute for a full Level 2 or Level 3 survey when you are buying a property. Tell us what you have noticed and we will explain which service is appropriate.
