“Saved me £12k on a misdiagnosed rising damp treatment.” - First-time buyer, SE London
- How we work
Two ways we can help
Not every property problem needs the same response. Select the level of investigation that fits your situation - pricing is fixed and confirmed before any work begins.
- Specific concern
Single specialist investigation
Your survey flagged something specific, or you have a known issue to investigate. We instruct the right specialist, coordinate access, and deliver a clear written report.
Price: From £250 fixed fee per investigation
- Damp & timber survey
- Roofing inspection
- Structural engineer
- Drainage & CCTV
- Electrical & plumbing
- Multiple concerns
Whole-building assessment
Older property, multiple defects flagged, or you need a complete picture before committing. A building pathologist inspects the entire property - structure, fabric, moisture, and services - and delivers a single integrated report.
- Building pathologist
- Structure, fabric & moisture
- All findings in one report
- Remedial priorities ranked
- Verified London cost ranges
- Why independent matters
No commercial conflict - by design
The specialist who investigates your property cannot quote for the remedial work they identify. That separation is deliberate - it keeps findings objective and free from commercial pressure.
No referral fees:
We take no commissions from contractors. Our only obligation is to you.
Investigation only:
Specialists are instructed to diagnose - never to repair. Findings stay objective.
Whole-building view:
Damp, structure, roof, drainage - assessed in context of each other, not in isolation.
