RICS Home Survey Level 3
What is an RICS Level 3 Home Survey?
An RICS Level 3 Home Survey, previously called an ‘RICS Building Survey’, is the most in-depth and comprehensive report available. It provides you with an extensive, in-depth analysis of the property’s condition including the roof, chimney, walls, floor, ceilings, doors and windows.
A Level 3 Survey includes advice on how to deal with certain problems discovered at the property, including repairs and maintenance options and the consequences of leaving any potential issues untreated.

You should choose an RICS Level 3 Home Survey if you’re dealing with a large, older or run-down property, a building that is unusual or altered, or if you’re planning major works.
