Building Surveys in East Sussex

Our building surveying service is comprised of the following three areas:

Pre-Acquisition Surveys and / or Vendor Surveys

Hunt Building Surveying undertake building surveys, formerly known as structural surveys, on residential and commercial properties across the county of East Sussex.

Our team of RICS Chartered Surveyors are able to carry out a building survey to investigate and assess the construction and condition of the building. It will not normally include advice and value. The survey includes information about the structure, fabric, finishes, and grounds. In addition, Hunt Building Surveying is able to expand on the survey by including information from third party advisers. Such advice would typically include the review and testing of the services installations, asbestos or other forms of deleterious materials.

Hunt Building Surveying is able to tailor the building reports to satisfy the needs of the client. For example, particular asset management considerations such as the Disability Discrimination Act, deleterious materials, fire safety and other legal issues will be covered within the building survey report to make sure our clients are able to make as informed decision as possible.

Condition Surveys

Hunt Building Surveying helps our clients make efficient use of their property portfolio, helping them reduce associated risks, adapt and renovate to extend their use and ensure they comply with the latest legislation.

Our experienced team work with the stakeholder to reduce timescales, costs and to understand complex requirements. Hunt Building Surveying’s aim is to help secure long term benefits for our client.

Comprehensive Due Diligence

Hunt Building Surveying likes to work with stakeholders as early as possible. Initially our due diligence process involves completing a full circle review of the project’s business case. Once this stage has been completed, our experienced team is able to offer a risk assessment and suggest measures of mitigation.

During construction, Hunt Building Surveying monitors the project and analyses potential risks. Our team works with all parties to ensure the successful completion of the project within a realistic time frame and budget.

The monitoring process can be tailored to include ongoing operational monitoring. This allows all interested parties to have comfort that the asset is performing as desired.
