Surveys of Properties in Hatfield
If you’re in the process of buying a property in Hatfield you’ll want to avoid surprises after you move in by arranging a professional survey.
We offer both RICS Level 2 & Level 3 Surveys (formerly known as ‘Homebuyer Reports’ and ‘Building Surveys’). The names may have changed but these reports remain the benchmark for residential pre-purchase surveys in Hatfield. Both reports will highlight any significant defects, but the level 3 will go on to consider repair options and future maintenance. Where issues have been highlighted, we can provide ballpark costings to be used as the basis for renegotiation without the hassle of gathering quotes.
If you require advice on an issue relating to a property you already own, we can assist with that too. A Specific Defect Report is written with the same level of detail as a Level 3 Survey but focuses on just 1 or 2 issues and is therefore more cost effective.

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 Hatfield
Positioned between the neighbouring towns of St Albans to the west and Potters Bar to the east, Hatfield exudes a distinct charm.
Transport links are the lifeblood of Hatfield, seamlessly connecting the town to London and beyond. The railway station, a vital artery, pulsates with activity, facilitating smooth commutes for residents and establishing Hatfield as a nexus of accessibility within Hertfordshire.
Hatfield House, a jewel in Hertfordshire’s crown, is an architectural marvel steeped in history. Constructed in the early 17th century, this stately home boasts Jacobean grandeur with exquisite craftsmanship. The house, surrounded by meticulously manicured gardens, served as the childhood residence of Queen Elizabeth I. Its opulent interiors showcase period furniture, intricate tapestries, and a renowned collection of art. Hatfield House opens a window to the past, allowing visitors to wander through the halls where history unfolded.
Adding a touch of cinematic allure to Hatfield is its association with acclaimed filmmaker Guy Ritchie. The Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrells’ writer and Director, known for his distinctive storytelling, has roots in Hatfield.
