Which survey is right for my Islington property?
For modern mansion blocks and post-war purpose-built flats that appear to be in reasonable condition, a RICS Level 2 Home Survey is usually sufficient. For period properties — Georgian or Victorian terraces in Barnsbury and Canonbury, listed buildings, or historic conversions — 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 listed buildings in Islington?
Yes. Islington has a substantial number of listed buildings, particularly Georgian and Victorian terraces in conservation areas like Barnsbury, Canonbury and the New River Walk.
