Condition Surveys

A condition survey provides a detailed, objective assessment of a commercial building’s physical condition, giving owners, buyers and tenants the clarity to act with confidence.

Whether you’re considering buying or renting a commercial property or planning long-term preventive maintenance, our RICS-accredited chartered surveyors provide clear, actionable insight, supporting sound financial decisions.

Informed by extensive experience across all commercial property types, our in-depth, non-intrusive surveys cover a building’s overall condition and associated risks.

We assess and report on structural integrity, primary building elements, building fabric, presence of asbestos, mechanical and electrical systems, and safety compliance, clearly highlighting defects and outlining remedial actions and associated budget implications.

Our role is to provide a clear, unbiased view of a building’s condition, so you can proceed with confidence.

For advice on condition surveys call 0117 942 7876, send us an email or complete our enquiry form we’ll respond promptly.

What’s involved?

We prepare reports that are clear, comprehensive and designed to support decision-making, ensuring no aspect of the property is overlooked and that clients understand potential future outcomes.

Beyond identifying defects, our experienced team interprets findings and provides practical, actionable advice, helping mitigate risk and supporting budget planning.

Our RICS-accredited condition surveys include:

  • Full building inspection – covering construction, layout and use
  • Internal and external condition assessment – including structural elements
  • Photographic records – documenting findings across the property
  • High-level inspections – using specialist tools such as camera poles or drones
  • Defect identification – highlighting visible issues and areas of concern
  • Accessibility – assessed against current accessibility regulations
  • Repair and maintenance schedules – detailing short, medium and long-term actions
  • Budget estimates – providing cost guidance for planned works
  • Compliance and risk advice – outlining legal considerations, environmental risks and hazardous materials
  • Further investigations – recommending specialist surveys where required (e.g. drainage or contamination)
