"Competitively priced service, the agent I dealt with was very helpful. On the day of the survey itself I received a call from the surveyor to run through his initial findings. The quality of the report produced was excellent, very detailed and thorough. If needed I will be using SAM Conveyancing's services again in the future for sure."
Defects flagged in a Pudsey Home Buyers Survey
The Green Top Colliery operated in Pudsey from 1873 to 1918. There was also the Smalewell quarry, and the area produced clay and fireclay.
Mining, quarries, and soil with high clay content, can all increase the risk of subsidence. Book a survey with one of our local Pudsey RICS Surveyors, who are trained to catch indications of subsidence and alert you before you sign contracts.
Parts of Pudsey are at risk of flooding from Farnley Beck, Pudsey Beck and Tyersal Beck.
Flooding and proximity to bodies of water can lead to damp problems in homes. Our local Pudsey RICS Surveyor will look for visible signs of damp or rot and include this in their report.
Most homes in Pudsey were built through the Victorian era. Asbestos was used widely in modernising older buildings throughout the 30s until the 90s; it is incredibly dangerous if disturbed.
Get a home survey from one of our local Pudsey RICS Surveyors. They are trained to spot visible signs of asbestos during your home survey and will include any cause for concern in their report.
