Nailsworth Building Surveyors

Local Building Surveyors in Nailsworth

If you’re buying a home in Nailsworth, whether it’s a cosy cottage, a period townhouse, or a modern family home, having a professional building survey is one of the smartest steps you can take.

At Cornerstone Surveyors, we provide thorough and reliable building surveys across Nailsworth. Our mission is simple: to give you a clear understanding of the condition of your new home, so you can buy with confidence and avoid any hidden surprises.

We offer both RICS Level 2 and Level 3 Building Surveys, giving you a choice of surveys tailored to your property’s age, style, and condition.

RICS Level 2 Building Surveys in Nailsworth

If you are purchasing a newer property or one that appears to be in generally good condition, a Level 2 survey is often the most suitable option.

Our Level 2 surveys include:

• A comprehensive visual inspection of the building’s key elements, including walls, roof, floors, and windows.
• Identification of visible problems, such as damp patches, roof leaks, cracks, or drainage issues.
• Clear recommendations for repairs and next steps, so you know what needs attention.

This type of survey is ideal for modern houses or apartments in Nailsworth’s newer developments or well-maintained homes that don’t need major work.

Level 3 Building Surveys for Nailsworth’s Older Properties

Nailsworth is full of older stone houses, mills, and converted buildings that deserve careful attention before purchase. A RICS Level 3 Survey provides a deeper insight into the property’s structure and condition.

Our Level 3 reports offer:

• A detailed inspection of all accessible areas, including lofts, roof spaces, and underfloor voids.
• An in-depth analysis of structural issues like subsidence, damp ingress, timber decay, and roof defects.
• Specific guidance for period or listed properties, including how local conservation rules might affect renovation plans.
• Supporting photographs to illustrate our findings.

This survey is highly recommended for Nailsworth’s charming older homes, converted mills, or any property that has been significantly altered or extended.
