Commerical Surveys

Independent property surveys and technical advice for commercial landlords, managing agents, businesses and property investors.

Why commission a commercial property survey?

Property defects can disrupt business operations, reduce asset value and lead to costly repairs when they are not identified early. An independent commercial survey can establish the condition of a building, identify the likely causes and extent of any damp, moisture, timber or building defects, and recommend appropriate remedial action.

Our surveys can support planned maintenance, lease negotiations, property purchases, refurbishment projects, insurance matters and the investigation of recurring defects. Clear photographic evidence and practical recommendations help property owners and managers prioritise work, obtain suitable quotations and avoid unnecessary or ineffective treatments.

Commercial Survey Fees

Commercial properties vary considerably in size, construction, use and accessibility, so fees are provided on a quotation basis. Pricing will depend on the type and size of the premises, the scope of the inspection, reporting requirements, location and any specialist testing required. Each instruction can be tailored to a single property, a portfolio of buildings or an ongoing inspection programme.
