We specialise in providing surveys for historic buildings and offering consultancy services for conservation but can undertake all survey types for residential properties and home buyers.

We undertake Homebuyer Reports and Building Surveys on all types of residential property. We can also provide a service for Home Condition Reports.

  • Homebuyer Report

This service will provide you with a detailed assessment of the structural condition of a property. It is created to the standard RICS format, so it is easy to understand and will contain the accurate information and details of the property. It can also provide suggestions about whether there would be any anticipated problems when it comes to be resold.

This survey is not appropriate for older, listed or particularly large properties.

The Building Survey is the most comprehensive residential house survey available – providing a thorough description of the construction of a property and if there are any repairs needed. It will offer suggestions for further investigation or remedial works.

We offer a service that is prompt, helpful and thorough in detail from your first contact with us until the end of our transaction. We aim to help our customers make a decision on a property based on professional expertise and honest information.

The reports we provide to our clients are in-depth and well set out for your understanding.

At Philip Carruthers Ltd, we have the expert knowledge to be able to offer advice on all aspects of property, but most notably for older, historic and listed properties.

Philip was great. He had a real feel for old houses and spent time explaining some particular issues and making sure we understood them. I would thoroughly recommend his use.

We received great friendly, efficient service. Our Survey was carried out quickly and we were able to meet Philip at the property to discuss the outcomes straight afterwards. This enabled us to proceed with our purchase without having to wait for the report. The report was also provided promptly, both by e-mail and with two hard copies. The electronic version was great for being able to share easily with solicitors / builders etc. This wasn't the cheapest quote we received, but we had excellent service and would highly recommend this company.
