If you book a survey with 1st Associated you will find that we take great pride in the quality of our surveys and produce a very detailed survey report, see our examples of surveys we have carried out in Cambridgeshire below. We use plain English to explain any problems with the property to ensure that you understand the problems and how to resolve them.

At 1st Associated our independent chartered surveyors really want you to be able to understand what we are telling you in the survey; so, over the years we have compiled a list of useful definitions and descriptions related to property, property purchase and the building industry in general. Each main section in our survey reports is set out from the top of the building down, i.e. we start with the chimneys first, then the roof coverings, followed by the roof structure, then we move on to the gutters and downpipes and the walls etc, all the way down to the foundations, damp proof course and external joinery. We then look at the interior of the property, the services and the outside areas. We use our list of definitions throughout in our building survey reports to aid your understanding of any issues and problems we may find with the property.
