Condition ratings

The condition rating system is designed to simplify and summarise complex and detailed reports, making them more accessible to laypersons. By using a straightforward rating scale, the system highlights the key findings and necessary actions in a clear and concise manner. This approach ensures that individuals without technical expertise can easily understand the overall condition of a property and the urgency of any required remedial works.

No repair is urgently needed. The property must be maintained in the normal way.

Defects that need repairing or replacing but are not considered to be either serious or urgent

Defects that are serious and/or need to be repaired, replaced or investigated urgently

Not inspected

What is included?

The RICS Level 3 Survey, also known as a Building Survey, is the most detailed and comprehensive of the RICS surveys. It provides an extensive analysis of a property's condition, covering all accessible areas. This survey is particularly suitable for older properties, those that have undergone significant alterations, or homes of an unusual design.

The survey includes:

  • A thorough examination of the building's structure, detailing defects, potential problems, and the need for any repair or maintenance.
  • An assessment of the condition of the building’s fabric, including walls, roofs, floors, windows, and doors.
  • Inspection of all fixed services such as heating, plumbing, drainage, and electrics, although a separate specialist report may be recommended for detailed analysis.
  • Identification of any significant risks associated with the building, including any evidence of damp, timber decay, or structural movement.

The Level 3 Survey provides detailed advice on the necessary remedial works and ongoing maintenance required to preserve the property. The report is intended to inform prospective buyers

Stratford and West Ham: A Brief Overview of Key Areas and Architectural Insights

Stratford, notably rejuvenated by the 2012 Olympics, encompasses areas like Stratford City and the Olympic Park. Buildings here illustrate a blend of cutting-edge construction techniques featuring sustainable materials and modern design principles aimed at enhancing energy efficiency and environmental resilience.

West Ham, traditionally more residential, features a mixture of Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses, echoing the historical growth during the Industrial Revolution. The use of London stock bricks and detailed stonework in facades marks these periods' distinct architectural styles.

Newer developments across both areas mix glass and steel structures, particularly in commercial and public buildings, reflecting contemporary trends in architecture that emphasise natural light and open spaces. These newer structures often incorporate advanced building technologies like curtain walling and rain screen cladding to achieve both aesthetic and practical purposes.

The construction landscape in Stratford and West Ham is a fascinating blend of old and new, reflecting the area's rich history while looking firmly towards the future with innovative building practices that cater to a modern urban lifestyle.

Drone Roof Survey

Establishing the condition of your roof is crucial for safeguarding your property against potential deterioration and prolonging its lifespan. As RICS Chartered Surveyors, we offer professional drone roof survey services that deliver an in-depth and precise evaluation of your roof’s condition, without the necessity for expensive access equipment. Drone roof surveys can be added to any other survey, including Level 3 Surveys.

Advantages of a Drone Roof Survey

Opting for a drone roof survey provides several benefits compared to traditional inspection methods:

  • Safety: Drones remove the need for scaffolding or ladders, thereby reducing the hazards associated with conventional roof inspections.
  • Efficiency: Our drones are capable of swiftly capturing high-resolution imagery and video, allowing for the comprehensive coverage of extensive areas in a significantly reduced timeframe.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: By lessening the need for extensive equipment and manpower, drone surveys are typically more economical, especially for larger or more intricate roof structures.
  • Accuracy: Drones can reach areas that are otherwise difficult to access, providing detailed data that enhances the precision of condition assessments.
