Commercial Building Surveys in Coventry

Commercial and industrial building surveys provide potential buyers and leaseholders with a comprehensive understanding of a property’s condition before committing to ownership or tenancy.

We conduct surveys on a wide range of properties in and around Coventry, including warehouses, restaurants, high street shops, offices and more.

The findings from our surveys offer a strong foundation for building occupiers and managers to consider future maintenance needs if the acquisition proceeds.

Pre-Acquisition Surveys

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

Schedule of Condition

Typically carried out at the start of a commercial lease, a schedule of condition covers the condition of a property and serves to limit the Tenant’s obligations or liability for repairs.

Dilapidations

We have negotiated dilapidations on properties ranging from small retail units to industrial estates, national supermarkets and office blocks.

Specific Defect Survey

If you are having specific problems within your property, or issues have been identified during a pre-acquisition survey or routine inspection, we can assist.

Reinstatement Cost Assessment

RCAs are generally made on the basis of total loss, or of such substantial damage that the building requires demolition and rebuilding.

Commercial Valuations

A commercial property valuation is carried out to determine the value of a premises that is used for business purposes. It is different from a residential valuation and must be carried out by a RICS accredited surveyor.

Residential Building Surveys in Coventry

For many, buying a home is one of the biggest investments they will ever make. It’s essential to know if there are any issues with the property that could affect its value.

Residential property surveys help buyers fully understand the condition of a property before completing a purchase. If you are buying or selling a property in Coventry, Easton Bevins can assist you with expert advice.

We offer a complete range of residential property surveys and can recommend the most suitable option for your needs.

Our detailed survey reports enable you to make informed decisions, potentially negotiating the price based on the cost of necessary repairs.

A survey is a wise investment that could save you thousands in the long term.

A RICS Homebuyers report is a level 2 report and is the entry level for pre-acquisition surveys. It is a proforma style report which highlights key issues.

Major Defects Survey

A Major Defects Survey provides insight into defects, remedies, maintenance issues, timescales and an estimate of budget for repairs.

Full Building Survey

This survey covers both major and minor defects, potential maintenance issues, remedies, associated timescales, and an estimated budget for repairs.

Specific Defect Survey

Our specific defect survey covers areas such as: damp problems, roof leaks, crack diagnosis, rot identification, subsidence, thermal imagery and more.

Reinstatement Cost Assessment
