Property Surveys, Valuations & Homebuyer Reports Nationwide

Written by the company

Buy Your Next Home with Confidence
e.surv Chartered Surveyors provides RICS home surveys, homebuyer reports, property valuations and residential surveying services throughout the UK. Our HomePlus Digital Home Survey, unique to e.surv, gives homebuyers a detailed, interactive assessment of a property's condition, helping identify potential issues before exchange and completion. With nationwide coverage and local surveyor expertise, we help thousands of customers make confident property decisions every year.
FAQ: What is a HomePlus Survey?
HomePlus is e.surv's exclusive Digital Home Survey and is equivalent to a standard RICS Level 2 Survey. It includes all the core property condition information provided in a traditional Level 2 Survey, plus additional benefits such as an interactive digital report, detailed photography, repair and maintenance guidance, energy efficiency insights and local area information. HomePlus helps homebuyers better understand a property's condition before they commit to a purchase.
FAQ: Is HomePlus the same as a RICS Level 2 Survey?
HomePlus includes the core information of a standard RICS Level 2 Survey, but enhances the experience with interactive photographs, digital navigation, energy efficiency information, repair guidance and local area insights to help buyers better understand the property before purchase.
FAQ: Can I book a survey online?
Yes. Customers can receive a quote, book and pay for a HomePlus survey online through the e.surv website, creating a faster and more convenient experience.
FAQ: Are e.surv surveyors RICS qualified?
Yes. e.surv works with a nationwide network of more than 600 RICS-registered surveyors. All surveys are completed in accordance with RICS professional standards, providing customers with confidence in the quality and consistency of the advice they receive.
FAQ: Do I need a survey when buying a house?
A home survey helps identify defects, maintenance issues and potential repair costs that may not be visible during a viewing. A professional property survey gives homebuyers a clearer understanding of a property's condition and can help avoid unexpected costs after moving in.
FAQ: What areas does e.surv cover?
e.surv provides residential surveying and valuation services throughout England and Wales, through a nationwide network of local surveyors.
FAQ: How long does a home survey take?
The time required depends on the size, age and condition of the property. Once your survey has been booked, your surveyor will arrange the inspection and your report will be issued after the property visit has been completed.
FAQ: What is the difference between a Level 2 and Level 3 Survey?
A RICS Level 2 Survey is typically suitable for conventional properties that appear to be in reasonable condition. A RICS Level 3 Survey provides a more detailed inspection and is often recommended for older properties, unusual construction types, properties that have been significantly altered or homes requiring renovation.
FAQ: Can a survey help me negotiate the purchase price?
Yes. A property survey may identify defects or issues that could affect the property's value or require future repairs. Buyers often use survey findings to negotiate with sellers or budget for future maintenance costs.

Professional, Thorough and Reassuring Service

James provided a very professional and thorough service. As I am currently in the process of securing a mortgage, having a clear and informed professional assessment was particularly important to me. He took the time to explain his findings in detail, especially around the areas where I had specific concerns, and addressed my questions in a calm and considered manner. His guidance gave me a much clearer understanding of the property and helped me feel more informed when making important decisions. I was very satisfied with the service provided and would highly recommend him.

Good service

I found the booking process very seamless from start to finish. Before the inspection, I was clearly informed about what would be checked, and the report provided valuable insights into issues I was not previously aware of, which helped me make an informed decision.

Harry was particularly helpful throughout the process. He took the time to explain the findings in detail and ensured I fully understood the implications of the issues identified. His professionalism and thoroughness stood out.

I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a comprehensive and reliable survey.
