"Absolutely first-class service from start to finish. The Level 3 building survey on our Victorian semi in Hednesford was incredibly thorough. The report was easy to read and flagged some roof issues we had no idea about. Saved us a fortune in negotiation."
"Really impressed with Cannock Surveyors. I needed a Help to Buy valuation quickly and they turned it around in under a week. Friendly, professional and very knowledgeable about the local Cannock property market. Highly recommend."
"As a first-time buyer, I felt completely out of my depth. Cannock Surveyors not only carried out a thorough RICS Level 2 survey but also took the time to walk me through every finding over the phone. Brilliant service from a genuinely local team."
"Used Cannock Surveyors for a commercial building survey before we took on a new office lease. Comprehensive report, clear schedule of condition and great expert advice. Will definitely use again for our next property investment."
"The team at Cannock Surveyors are professional and approachable. They surveyed a 1970s detached house we were buying in Burntwood and gave us a very clear picture of what needed doing. The report helped us renegotiate the price successfully."

Not sure which survey you need? Here are the questions our clients ask us most often.
A RICS Level 2 homebuyer report (formerly known as a HomeBuyer Report) is a mid-level survey suited to conventional properties in reasonable condition — modern houses, flats, and standard semi-detached homes built after the 1930s. It provides an overview of the property's condition using a traffic-light rating system.
A Level 3 building survey (formerly the full structural survey) is the most comprehensive option. It covers the construction of the building in detail, identifies all visible defects and explains their cause. It is recommended for older properties, unusual construction types, or where you already have concerns about the condition of the property.
Not sure which is right for you? Contact our Cannock surveyors and we'll advise you free of charge.
The on-site inspection for a RICS Level 2 survey typically takes 2–3 hours for an average residential property. A Level 3 building survey on a larger or more complex property can take 4–6 hours or more.
After the inspection, your written survey report is usually delivered within 3–5 working days. If your purchase is time-sensitive, let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you.
