Surveys of Properties in Wimbledon
If you’re about to buy a property in Wimbledon you’ll want to ensure that you enter the transaction with your eyes open. It’s considered reasonable for a buyer to renegotiate the price that they’re paying, sometimes by many thousands of pounds, if an issue is discovered that a layperson would not be aware of but that can only happen if you commission a detailed survey from one of our RICS qualified experienced surveyors.
We offer both RICS Level 2 (Homebuyer) and Level 3 (Building Survey) Reports and can advise on which will best suit your needs. Following the inspection, your surveyor will make themselves available to discuss the contents and provide any clarification required.
Below you will find links to the hundreds of positive reviews we’ve received from owners who’ve commissioned surveys from us on properties in and around Wimbledon. Call today to take advantage of our expertise.

Learn more about the benefits of commissioning a detailed survey report and how our team of experienced surveyors can provide you with all the information you need to make an informed decision about whether to proceed.
The Level 2 (Homebuyer) Report is designed to provide buyers with concise information about the condition of a property. This is achieved by giving elements a Condition Rating based on the traffic light system and summarising them at the front of the report.
The Level 3 (Building Survey) is the most detailed of the RICS Home Survey Reports and is suitable for all residential properties. The report can be customised and enhanced with the addition of a valuation, feasibility study or ballpark repair costs.
If there's an issue with a property that you already own which requires investigation, our Building Surveyors can provide a Specific Defect Report. The report will provide an expert opinion on the cause and useful guidance on the next steps.

About Wimbledon
Wimbledon forms part of the London borough of Merton sitting just above Raynes Park and south-east of Richmond.
Wimbledon Common, part of a trio of commons in the wider area, is the area largest green space. To people of a certain age, the common will forever be associated with the litter picking pointy nosed Wombles who were celebrated in the 1970s chart hit and TV show.
The primary entertainment venue in the area is the Grade II listed New Wimbledon Theatre. The venue has 1,670 seats spread across all three of the floors and offers a year-round mix of plays, comedy and music acts culminating in the popular Christmas pantomime. The theatre was designed by Cecil Massey and Roy Young in the Renaissance style but, unusually, houses a Victorian Turkish bath in the basement. Local families will also be drawn to the Polka Theatre on The Broadway which, as well as putting on regular plays for young children, includes a toyzone and playground.
Wimbledon Station, located on The Broadway, has 11 platforms and is the last stop on the District Line (Zone 3). It also forms part of the South Western and Thameslink lines as well as connecting with Tramlink services.
