Greenwich has one of the most varied housing stocks in South London. From Georgian townhouses along Crooms Hill to Victorian terraces in East Greenwich and modern riverside developments near the Peninsula, each property presents its own unique risk. A mortgage valuation alone will not tell you what is really going on beneath the surface.
Many of the period properties in SE10 and SE3 carry issues that are common across this part of London, including movement in older foundations, ageing roof coverings, and damp in below-ground rooms. Without a proper survey, these problems can go unnoticed until they become expensive to fix. According to RICS, homebuyers face an average of £5,750 in unforeseen repair costs when they skip a professional survey.
More Than Just Homebuyers Surveys
In addition to homebuyers surveys, we also offer property valuations, RICS Level 3 building surveys, and specialist property inspections. Whatever stage of the buying process you’re at, our professional surveyors are here to help.

Our RICS Level 2 Home Survey is the right choice for most Greenwich buyers looking at properties in reasonable condition. It provides a focused assessment of the property without the depth of a full building survey.
Here is what you can expect from the report:
- Condition ratings for all major elements including the roof, walls, windows, and internal structure, graded using a clear traffic light system
- Urgent defects that need immediate attention, along with areas that may need repair or monitoring in the near future
- Damp and moisture assessment to identify signs of penetrating or rising damp, which is particularly relevant in older Greenwich properties
- Potential risks such as subsidence indicators, drainage concerns, or issues relating to nearby trees and vegetation
- A post-survey phone call where your surveyor talks you through the findings, answers your questions, and helps you understand what the results mean for your purchase
Every report is prepared to RICS standards and written so that it is genuinely useful, not full of jargon or vague disclaimers. We want you to finish reading it feeling clear about where you stand.
