We are an independent company specialising in Pre-Purchase Heating & Plumbing Surveys for new and old properties in the following counties: London, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Surrey, Bedfordshire, Kent, Essex, Suffolk, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Sussex, Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and Manchester.

Within our pre purchase heating and plumbing report you will receive a full description of each finding along with photographs and recommendations for the repairs. Furthermore we will provide you with an estimate of the cost which can help with your decision making on purchasing the property.

Our inspections will take approximately two hours and with the report we will highlight the following:

1. Locate the stopcock and gas meter to the property and check if fully operational.

2. Check all toilets within the property are fully working, not overflowing or leaking.

3. Check all sinks and taps within the property are fully working. Test the overflows with plugs in position and check waste pipes for any leaks.

5. Check external garden taps
