Chester is rich in period and listed homes. Georgian and Victorian houses stand inside and around the walls. Later Victorian and Edwardian terraces fill Hoole, Handbridge and Boughton. Listed status, solid walls, old roofs and a history of change are common. So a RICS Level 3 Building Survey is the usual choice. The suburbs of Upton, Vicars Cross and Blacon came later. They are standard construction and suit a RICS Level 2 Home Survey.

Whatever you are buying, we inspect it ourselves and write the report in plain English. These are the homes we survey most often across the city.

  • Inside the walls and the Georgian streets. Listed Georgian and early Victorian townhouses. A Level 3. We flag where listed-building consent affects the repairs we suggest.

  • Hoole, Handbridge and Boughton. Victorian and Edwardian terraces and villas. The villas and the older terraces take a Level 3. Later terraces in good order take a Level 2.

  • Upton, Vicars Cross and Blacon. Inter-war and post-war semis and estates of standard construction. A RICS Level 2 Home Survey covers them well.

  • Curzon Park and Queens Park. Large Victorian and Edwardian houses, many extended or divided into flats. A Level 3 with a close look at roofs, services and alterations.

  • Saltney, Lache and the villages. Mixed stock from post-war estates to converted farm buildings. We advise which survey fits before you book.

FAQs

Questions about surveys in Chester

Do you cover all of Chester?

Yes. We cover every CH postcode from our base on Rodney Street in Liverpool. That includes Hoole, Handbridge, Boughton, Upton, Vicars Cross, Blacon, Saltney, Christleton and Tarvin.

How quickly can you survey in Chester?

We reply the same working day with a fixed fee and the earliest dates we can offer. Chester is a straight drive from Rodney Street through the tunnel and down the M53, so an inspection is usually within the week. Your report follows within three working days of a Level 2 visit, or four of a Level 3.

Which survey do most Chester buyers need?

In Chester the answer is often a RICS Level 3 Building Survey. So much of the housing is Georgian, Victorian, listed or altered. The suburbs built between and after the wars are standard construction. They suit a RICS Level 2 Home Survey. If you are unsure, tell us about the property and we will advise before you book.

Do you survey listed buildings in Chester?

Yes. Chester has a great many, and a RICS Level 3 Building Survey is the right level for them. The report covers the fabric and the defects in depth. It also notes where listed-building consent affects the repairs we suggest. You can then talk to the conservation officer with the facts in hand.
