Chartered, Independent, RICS-Regulated firm of Building Surveyors
4Sight Surveying Ltd
4Sight Surveying Ltd is a Chartered, independent, RICS-regulated firm of building surveyors based in Hull, providing professional residential surveying and valuation services throughout Yorkshire and the surrounding regions.
Led by experienced Chartered Construction Professionals, our purpose is to help property buyers, homeowners, landlords and investors make informed decisions about their properties. We provide clear, impartial advice supported by detailed inspections, practical explanations and comprehensive reports.
Our services include:
RICS Level 2 Home Surveys
RICS Level 3 Building Surveys
Red-Book valuation
Help to Buy valuations
Matrimonial, probate and taxation valuations
Portfolio and investment-property valuations
Specific Defect Surveys
Damp and timber Survey

Insurance Reinstatement Valuation (Rebuild cost assessment)

Our RICS Level 2 Home Survey is suitable for conventional properties that appear to be in reasonable condition. It provides a clear overview of the property, identifies significant defects and highlights issues that may require further investigation or repair.
For older, altered, extended, non-standard or poorly maintained buildings, our RICS Level 3 Building Survey provides a more detailed assessment. It examines the propertys construction and condition, describes visible defects, considers their likely causes and explains the repairs or further investigations that may be required. Where appropriate and legally permitted, high-resolution drone photography can also be used to obtain an improved view of roofs, chimneys and other difficult-to-access areas.
Our Specific Defect Surveys focus on an individual concern, such as dampness, cracking, suspected structural movement, water ingress, roof defects, defective chimneys or problems affecting an extension. These inspections are particularly helpful when a homeowner, buyer, seller or contractor requires an independent professional opinion about a particular issue.
We also undertake RICS-compliant Red Book valuations for a range of purposes, including Help to Buy redemptions, shared ownership, matrimonial proceedings, probate, taxation and property portfolios. Each valuation is prepared independently and in accordance with the applicable RICS professional standards.

At 4Sight Surveying, we understand that property reports can sometimes be overly technical or difficult to interpret. Our reports are written in clear, straightforward language and include photographs wherever these help explain our findings. We distinguish between routine maintenance, significant defects and matters requiring urgent attention so that clients can understand the propertys condition and prioritise their next steps.
Our approach is thorough, professional and personal. We take the time to inspect each property carefully, consider its age, construction, alterations and surrounding environment, and explain how identified defects could affect the building. Clients are also welcome to contact us after receiving their report to discuss the findings and ask questions.

Based in Hull, we cover East Yorkshire, North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, North Lincolnshire and selected surrounding areas. Our regular coverage includes Hull, Beverley, Cottingham, Hessle, Brough, North Ferriby, Swanland, Anlaby, Kirk Ella, South Cave, Driffield, Bridlington, Pocklington, Market Weighton, York, Selby, Goole, Barton-upon-Humber, Doncaster, Sheffield, Leeds and neighbouring locations.

Services
RICS Level 2 Survey We provide RICS Level 2 Homebuyer Surveys for conventional properties in reasonable condition, offering a detailed visual assessment beyond a basic valuation. Our inspections cover major elements, visible defects, moisture, infestations, services, drainage, grounds and permanent outbuildings. We provide clear photographs, traffic-light condition ratings and practical advice to help you understand repairs, maintenance and future considerations.
RICS Level 3 Building Survey Our RICS Level 3 Building Survey offers an in-depth assessment of complex residential properties, including their construction, condition and potential defects. We inspect accessible areas, assess structural and material concerns, and identify issues requiring attention, with clear reporting and photographs. A 4K drone inspection is included, alongside practical recommendations for repairs, maintenance and future planning.
Specific Defect Survey We provide Specific Defect Surveys to assess a particular structural or condition-related concern within a property. Our inspections focus on the identified area rather than the entire building, while also covering related building matters found during the inspection. We provide clear, practical findings explaining the cause and severity of concerns, together with recommended next steps.
Red-Book Valuations Our valuation service establishes a property's open-market worth at a specific point in time, using relevant market evidence and professional assessment. We determine the appropriate approach according to your requirements, whether a desktop assessment, inspection or specialist valuation is needed. Our written reports provide transparent supporting information, while our team remains available to explain the outcome and assist with next steps.
Drone Services
Report
Drone Services We provide comprehensive aerial inspections of roofs, chimneys, facades and other tall or difficult-to-access structures using advanced drone platforms. Our ultra-high resolution photography, 4K video and data-rich imagery provide detailed insight into asset condition, maintenance requirements and visual documentation. Drone access reduces disruption, safety risks and costs while delivering efficient results.
Damp & Timber Survey
Report
Damp & Timber Survey We provide independent damp and timber surveys to identify issues including rising damp, woodworm, wet rot and dry rot before they become costly problems. Our qualified surveyors assess the severity, extent and underlying cause of the issue, then provide credible advice on necessary remedial action. No repair quotation is supplied, allowing you to choose any contractor.

Very pleased with the service and the quality of the Level 2 Survey. The report was extremely comprehensive, with everything explained well and plenty of useful information about the condition of the property, without making minor issues sound more concerning than they are.

We recently used this company to perform a Level 3 survey on a house we wanted to buy. Before committing to the survey they sent us lots of information about what they would look for and how, which as first time house buyers filled us with confidence. Laura and Mo were very helpful and were happy to answer the multitude of questions that we asked.

The team at 4Sight Surveying were extremely helpful. Ive had surveys in the past and not had a post survey follow-up and as much support. I was able to discuss issues found in the property with the surveyor, Mo, directly, which helped me make informed decisions about the property and future costs

I found 4sight surveying to be a first rate company to use. The first of several surveying companies to respond to my enquiry and offering the fastest time to carry out the survey. That said, the survey was extensive, easy to follow and it was much appreciated that both Laura and Mo were happy to answer any follow up questions I had. Definitely recommend.
