Your Home Surveyor

We are Chartered Building Surveyors and RICS Registered Valuers. The team has over twenty five years Residential Surveying and Valuation experience, on all property types. Based in Altrincham we offer Professional property advice throughout the Greater Manchester and Cheshire areas.

Buying a property is the biggest investment you will make. Our Surveyors look carefully at the condition of a property and report all defects that are not obvious when viewing a property. There could be hidden defects such as structural damage, damp or problems with the roof.

Our in depth survey provides expert knowledge, alleviates any concerns and can be used to renegotiate the purchase price, saving you money.

The report was very thorough and detailed. It highlighted some defects we were able to negotiate with the Vendor on. A big thank you to the team at Your Home Surveyor.
