John Creed has\u00a0carried out structural surveys and prepared reports on same since his time working in London in the 1980s.<\/p>\n

House Surveys<\/strong><\/p>\n

Structural surveys involve a thorough inspection of accessible elements of a building and site which typically involves the boundaries, lawns, driveways, footpaths and then moving onto the house; the chimneys, roof, gutters, downpipes, soffits and fascias along with the walls, doors and windows.<\/p>\n

Internally we look at the external wall type (of critical importance: a modern cavity wall prevents water ingress from wind-blown rain), internal walls, floors and ceilings.<\/p>\n

We check each room in turn typically looking for cracking and evidence of dampness which is generally checked with an electronic moisture meter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We generally enter the attic provided it is possible to do so to check for roof structure, felt, insulation, storage tank and expansion tank (if applicable).<\/p>\n

Engineering Reports<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Reports are often required for insurance purposes after flood, fire or storm damage.<\/p>\n

Reports are also required by developers when taking housing estates into ‘the charge of’ Local Authorities.<\/p>\n

Land Surveys<\/strong><\/p>\n

We can carry out land surveys using electronic theodolite equipment. This type of survey can show contours, boundaries, buildings, overhead cables, sewer lines etc.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
