Commercial Building surveys in Bristol

Commercial and industrial building surveys are aimed at giving potential purchasers and leaseholders a snapshot picture of the condition of premises prior to taking on obligations as owner or leaseholder.

Easton Bevins carries out commercial surveys on a wide range of Bristol properties including: warehouses, restaurant, high street shops, offices and more.

The overall picture gained from the building survey and associated investigations will provide an invaluable starting point for building occupiers and managers to consider future maintenance should the acquisition proceed.

Easton Bevins offers a full range of commercial property surveys and can advise on which type of survey will best meet your needs.

For most people buying a home is the largest investment they will ever make. It is vitally important to know whether the property has any issues that might affect its value.
