Which survey is right for my Hackney property?
For modern apartments, mansion blocks and post-war Hackney homes that appear to be in reasonable condition, a RICS Level 2 Home Survey is usually sufficient. For period properties — Victorian and Georgian terraces in De Beauvoir Town, Stoke Newington or Clapton — we strongly recommend the more detailed Level 3 Building Survey. If you are unsure, call us with the property details and we will advise at no charge.
Do you cover basement and converted properties in Hackney?
Yes. Our surveyors have extensive experience with Hackney's many basement conversions, loft conversions and period property adaptations. We understand the structural implications of subterranean works, the common defects in Victorian and Georgian terraces, and the building control requirements for conversions.
What areas of Hackney do you cover?
We cover the entire borough including Hackney Central, Dalston, Stoke Newington, Clapton, London Fields, De Beauvoir Town, Hoxton, Haggerston, Homerton, Stamford Hill, Shoreditch borders and all surrounding areas within the London Borough of Hackney.
How quickly can I get a survey report?
We aim to schedule your Hackney survey within 5 to 10 working days and deliver the report within 5 working days of inspection. For urgent cases with tight exchange deadlines, we can often provide a same-day verbal summary of key findings.
