RICS Level 3 - Building Survey

RICS Level 3 - Building Survey

Our RICS Level 3, often referred to as a pre-acquisition or due diligence survey. This in-depth structural survey is crafted to provide a comprehensive understanding of your property, going beyond the surface to unearth both visible defects and potential issues caused by hidden flaws.


The RICS Building Survey, officially designated as the RICS Level 3 and commonly known as a Structural Survey, stands out as the most comprehensive inspection. It is suitable for a wide range of properties, and particularly those built before 1950, properties with significant alterations or extensions, listed buildings, neglected properties, and those constructed using non-standard methods such as timber framed properties.


This survey offers an in-depth analysis, making it the ideal choice for property owners seeking a thorough understanding of a property's condition, especially when dealing with unique construction methods or heavily modified properties.
