Our Services

Not every structural concern needs the same level of inspection. If you've got one specific crack or issue you want checked, that's a faster, more affordable report. If there are several issues, or you're not sure what's going on and want the whole property looked at properly, that needs a more thorough inspection.


  • One crack, one area, one specific worry, you need a:
    Specific Structural Inspection (SSI)


  • Several issues, or you want full peace of mind on the whole building, you need a:
    General Structural Inspection (GSI)


Both reports are carried out by me, a Structural Engineer (CEng MICE), and either way you'll have a plain-language report within 24 hours.

Specific Structural Inspection

For one specific crack, defect, or area of concern, on your own home or a property you're buying. A focused inspection of that one issue, with a clear explanation of what's causing it and what to do next. Our faster, more affordable option.

General Structural Inspection

For when there's more than one issue, or you want the whole property checked, not just one thing you've spotted. A full inspection of the building's structure, giving you complete peace of mind about its condition. Recommended if you're unsure what you're dealing with or want the full picture before you commit.

Our RICS Home Survey – Level 2 provides expert advice to help you make an informed decision about purchasing a property. It assesses the building’s condition, highlights necessary repairs, and includes a valuation (if requested), ensuring you understand any potential costs before committing.
