Question
Hi, Please could you tell me who is liable to pay for a refresh home report? Thanks
Answer
The person commissioning the report, i.e. the client, whether it’s a new report or a refresh of an existing report, is liable to pay the surveyor at that Surveyor’s normal rate.

Really efficient, arrived on time, completed the report quickly. Absolutely no problems and very straightforward. Cost of home report was extremely competitive for what is essentially an identical service whoever is used so better to pay less if you can.
