Selecting A Surveyor

To find a qualified surveyor, check with the national professional body of surveyors: RICS - Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors

• Ask friends or co-workers who have recently bought a home if they would recommend their surveyor.
• Ask your estate agent to recommend an surveyor or chartered surveyors company.
• Look in the telephone book under "Chartered Surveyors" or a similar category.

You should interview the surveyor or surveying firm you’ve selected about their qualifications, experience and errors-and-omissions insurance.

Surveyors who offer to also do the repair work for you, should be avoided because that may influence their analysis.
