In Shepton Mallet we are particularly good at drain surveys and investigations

There’s no doubt about it, moving home is expensive, and Shepton Mallet Home Buyer’s structural surveys used to be relatively straightforward.

A building surveyor would attend the Shepton Mallet house you were going to buy and undertake inspection, ranging from the entry level ‘valuation’ up to the ‘full structural’, none of which were cheap. The majority of buyers would opt for the entry level and least expensive option their mortgage lender would accept in Shepton Mallet Somerset BA4. Against a backdrop of litigation and a compensation culture, surveyors have had no choice but to add disclaimers about anything he or she can’t actually see or inspect, especially underground services like drains.

Hence the recent additional need of a specialist drainage survey for Shepton Mallet properties.
