A commercial property survey will follow the broad format of a building survey and will describe the condition and an assessment of the relative importance of the defects found, or problems identified including the risk of potential and hidden defects in areas not inspected.  It will describe probable cause of defects and an outline scope of remedial works and the consequence of non-repair. The responsibility of the maintenance will be examined by reference to the lease and priority and timescale for recommended works will be scheduled, and as our surveyors are cost consultants, we can also provide cost advice on specific request from our clients.  The inspection will take into account the specialist installations in offices, shops or warehouses and any shared services with other users and recommendations for further inspection will be provided in this regard.
