Property buyers
If the property you are planning to purchase in Putney has signs of damp, cracking or another defect, a Structural Engineer’s Report produced by Pole will recommend your next steps and the likely costs for any structural repair work. This report can be useful in negotiations and for securing a mortgage or building insurance.
Property vendors
When you are planning to sell property in Putney, you might want to commission a Structural Engineer’s Report for professional advice on any potential structural defects before you put the property on the market. A Structural Engineer’s Report can also ease the concerns of potential buyers.
Property owners
If you own a property in Putney and want to make an insurance claim for any structural issues, you will need to commission an independent, specialist Structural Engineer’s Report.
Pole offers two types of Structural Engineers Reports for properties in Putney.
Structural Engineers Defect Report for properties in Putney
A Structural Engineer’s Defect Report by Pole inspects and assesses a single, localised structural problem, such as a large crack or sagging floor. This report could also examine a specific issue such as the proximity of a tree in Putney or a drainage problem in Putney. Our Chartered Structural Engineer will then advise you on the cause and remedies to take. The report will also include estimated repair costs for the Putney property.
Structural Engineers General Movement Report for properties in Putney
If there are multiple cracks or general distortion to the property in Putney, it is advisable to commission a Structural Engineers General Movement Report. Our Chartered Structural Engineer will carry out a visual inspection of the main loadbearing walls of the property for signs of movement. This will be followed by a written report, containing clear recommendations with an indication of potential repair costs.
