We carry out residential structural surveys and commercial surveys in Sunderland. Sunderland is a town which is situated in Tyne and Wear.
Sunderland is a coastal city in Tyne and Wear and lies at the mouth of the River Wear, it is accessed via the A1 or A19 and is situated within easy reach of Durham and Newcastle.
Sunderland's history dates back to Anglo Saxon times when it was originally known as a fishing town but did not begin to grow until the 16 th century when it started producing salt shortly followed by coal mining.
Today major investment and regeneration in the area has seen Sunderland develop into one of the most important cities in the North East. It boasts its own University and The Stadium of Light, one of the finest stadiums in Europe and home to Sunderland Football club. Massive investment in the city centre has seen the Victorian streets of the Sunniside area with its boutiques and independent shops thrive. The area fascinates us as surveyors because it has over 160 listed buildings for us to admire and also the Victorian Sunniside Gardens, a public open space which has just been restored at the cost of nearly two million pounds.
Sunderland's main indoor shopping area is The Bridges Shopping Centre and contains over a hundred top high street stores. Restaurants, pubs, clubs, cafes and leisure centres are all to be found in the city along with an underground music scene voted one of the best in the UK by NME. Other more unusual activities are also available such as skiing at Silksworth Sports Complex, climbing at the Sunderland Wall which is the second highest indoor wall in Europe or visit the Winter gardens where you can view 2000 flowers and plants.
If you are planning to book a building survey on a property you are purchasing in Sunderland or the surrounding area then we would like to assure you that we always send a suitably qualified and experienced surveyor to carry out the job. This ensures that you get expert advice on any issues that we may find with the property we are surveying. All our surveyors are members of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors - RICS - and are Independent Building Surveyors. Being 'independent' means that they are working for you and you alone; they do not work for a mortgage company or an estate agents, so they have your best interests at heart.
All our survey contain lots of images, clearly showing any problems that we have identified at the property such as woodworm, rising damp or cracking to the walls. We also use sketches in our survey which are aimed at helping you to understand how certain areas are constructed or to help show more clearly a problem that we have identified. You will also find lots of definitions of any building terminology that we may use in our survey, as we firmly believe in 'Plain English' and really want you to fully understand what we are saying in the survey report.
