Specific Defect Surveys
Our Specific Defect Survey is tailored to provide a thorough, professional inspection of specific issues affecting a property. This service is ideal for identifying and assessing defects that may impact the value, safety, or integrity of a building. At DAW Surveyors, we deliver a comprehensive Surveyor’s Report that details the nature of the defect, its underlying causes, and recommended steps for remediation.
Common Property Defects We Inspect
With extensive experience in property assessment, our surveyors regularly investigate and report on a variety of specific defects, including:
Structural Cracks and Distortions: From hairline cracks to significant structural movement, we analyze and report on building cracks and structural distortions to ensure they don’t pose long-term risks.
Damp Issues: Our expertise covers rising damp, penetrating damp, and other moisture-related issues that could impact the health of the building and its occupants.
Condensation and Mould Growth: We assess moisture build-up and mould, identifying sources and offering solutions to mitigate these issues.
Substandard Workmanship: If you’ve experienced poor-quality work from contractors or builders, we can help evaluate and document defects that require correction.
Defects Following Alterations: Issues that arise after an extension, conversion, or renovation are common, and our team specializes in identifying any flaws stemming from recent work.
Building Component Defects: From walls and roofs to windows, floors, subfloor areas, and chimneys, we evaluate each element thoroughly for defects.

Each Specific Defect Survey conducted by DAW Surveyors results in a detailed report, which provides:

Cause Analysis: A professional assessment of the underlying cause of the problem, which could be due to construction practices, environmental factors, or material degradation.
Implications and Risks: We highlight the potential impact of the defect on property value, safety, and functionality.
