Residential Structural Surveys South Wales
Whether you require a structural survey for peace of mind, or as a condition of your mortgage application, our members advice will prove invaluable to you.
Our members can either look at a specific defect to the property or carry out a full structural survey. They can also offer just a verbal report, prior to an auction.
Our structural engineers in South Wales have experience of both traditional and non-traditional forms of construction, including precast concrete houses, steel framed system built houses or timber framed houses.
Expert structural reports produced by members of the South Wales Structural Network are based on a detailed, non-intrusive, visual examination of the property. However, for non-traditional forms of construction, it is often necessary to carry out further intrusive investigation and testing, and our members can advise on this.
Commercial Structural Surveys South Wales
Our members work with corporate clients, assisting them in managing their asset portfolios.
This includes:
- Pre-acquisition structural surveys
- Due Diligence reports
- Development advice
- Structural feasibility studies for planned alterations
- Schedules of Condition
- Where access proves difficult, we collaborate closely with our network of industry experts, and are able to make use of drones, high rise rope access and marine divers, to facilitate the survey.

- Assess the cause and extent of structural damage
- Undertake monitoring programmes of subsidence damaged buildings
- Arrange geotechnical investigations
- Arrange materials testing
- Arrange CCTV surveys of drainage systems
- Prepare schedules and specifications for repair
- Arrange and manage tenders for completing repairs
Do You Need A Structural Survey?
Nowadays, the term structural survey isn’t used by RICS Chartered Surveyors anymore because it doesn’t accurately reflect what a proper building survey is. However, because building surveys were once widely known as structural surveys, many people think they need a structural survey when they actually require a building survey.
A structural survey specifically reports on the structural strength and durability of a building or structure. These reports are rarely necessary for assessing the safety of new builds or even old residential properties, unless you or your Chartered Surveyor have real concerns about the structural stability of the home you’re thinking of buying.
Structural reports in South Wales are, however, sometimes required to obtain building control approval. Our engineers can also provide calculations and structural drawings for projects such as:
- Altering or removing walls
- Demolishing a chimney breast
- Extensions
- Loft and cellar conversions
- Solar panel installations
- Underpinning floors
