Home Buyers, Drain Surveys
During the 1980's Damp proofing problems were regularly identified as causes of concern for surveyors, in the 1990's wall tie failure. However increasingly these days surveyors are concerned about the condition of the drains at your property and rightly so.
It is a fact that leaking drains
are the cause of over 25% of property subsidence in Wales. 
For
as little as £150 Redwood can survey the drains prior to your
purchase or to include in your "Sellers Pack".
Even if the defects in your drains do not lead to property subsidence any future problems are likely to lead to disruption and cost to the new home owner. Redwood strongly recommends that no home should be purchased without a full drain survey.
If you are selling . . .Often the drainage survey is
the last report asked for and the delay can create a log jam in the house
purchase process. Our Surveys are professionally produced to a high standard
and will be acceptable to any surveyor,
engineer
or builder.
If you are buying . . .
Our reports are thorough, with a DVD copy, site
drawing and a writtern
comprehensive survey including our conclusions & comments on the legal
status your drains and sewers.
If required we can give a verbal appraisal on the same day as the site
visit.
We promise too . . .
- Prioritise your survey, to minimise any delays
- Provide you with a full colour report including photographic evidence
if necessary

- Provide a summary and where relevant our recommendations and costings to return the drain to a serviceable order.
