Not sure which? Call 01883 672 055 or start the questionnaire and it will suggest a level.
Choose a Level 3 for pre-1900 or period properties, listed buildings, homes that have been extended or significantly altered, non-standard construction, larger or higher-value properties, anything in visibly poor condition, or where you plan significant renovation. If in doubt, our questionnaire will suggest a level, or you can call and we will advise.
Where we are instructed to do so, the report includes indicative repair costs to help you understand the likely scale and priority of the work and to support your planning or negotiations. Detailed quotations should then be obtained from contractors once the required scope of work has been established.
Yes. We survey listed, historic and period properties, with particular experience of Grade II listed buildings. We understand the traditional construction methods and materials commonly encountered in older properties and the specialist considerations that may arise.
A Level 3 inspection is more detailed than a Level 2 and typically takes longer. The time required depends on the size, age, construction, condition and complexity of the property. Your report will typically be prepared over the five full working days following the day of our inspection. Your surveyor will then call to talk it through.
Fees are based on the value, size and type of the property, which is why our online quote asks for an approximate value band and the number of bedrooms. You get an instant figure with no obligation.
Always. A follow-up call is part of the service. Your surveyor will explain the significant findings, answer your questions and help you decide what to raise with the seller or your conveyancer.

My experience with Huxley Surveyors more than met expectations. Mathew did our Level 3 pre-purchase survey of a flat in a Grade II listed property in Hove. His very extensive report was well presented, and upon receipt Mat proactively suggested a follow up phone call to clarify any points in the report and to answer any questions. All in all, a good experience. I can highly recommend Huxley Surveyors.
The survey itself was exceptionally detailed and comprehensive, leaving no stone unturned. The report was clear, well-structured, and easy to understand, highlighting both major concerns and smaller issues that could have easily been overlooked.
Fabulous service from Chris. We have used Huxley surveyors twice and would recommend without doubt. The service was professional, informed and really efficient. Following a survey, Chris offered follow- up calls to help with anything that wasn’t clear. A fantastic service.
