A mortgage valuation is not a survey and is for the lender’s purposes only. It tells you little about the building’s state of repair, and it won’t necessarily point out structural problems that you may have to pay to fix further down the line.
We always recommend commissioning your own independent home survey which will give you a clear understanding of the property’s condition.
Take a look at our summary table to see the survey costs for each type of home survey, or, use our instant price calculator further below.

Take a look at our Survey Comparison Guide below (or check out our handy home survey comparison summary table) & decide what type of survey you need when buying a house:
Level One Survey
When you find your dream home, you deserve to know exactly what you’re buying.
By using numeric score ratings of 1-10, Homescore reports cover all key areas of the property and rate its condition in a way that’s easy to understand.
Level 2 Survey
A RICS HomeBuyer report is a more extensive visual inspection of the property. It provides an expert account of the property’s condition and highlights significant problems with easy to understand ‘traffic light’ ratings.
Level Three Survey
A RICS Building Survey is the most in-depth and comprehensive report available. It provides a detailed picture of the property’s construction and condition, including roof, chimney, wall, floor, ceiling, door and window.
