We deal with all types of buildings in the East Anglian region, old and new, from period cottages to listed Manor houses, modern dwellings and commercial buildings. Our fees are very competitive, our service is personal to you and we are not linked with any lender, agent or bank, therefore we will always put your interests first.

As members of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) we are regulated by them in financial and professional matters.
Services
Abode Surveyors is based in Essex and much of our work is in Essex and East Anglia, although we can travel further.
Our extensive experience covers residential and commercial property and we deal with all types of buildings, old and new.
We can advise on a range of professional property matters from building surveys to homebuyer reports, expertise on dilapidations, schedules of condition and building pathology.
Our other services include rating, valuations, appeals, party wall matters and planning applications.
A survey will help you to make a reasoned and informed decision on whether to go ahead with buying a property.
Before you decide to commit yourself legally, you can limit the risks by asking a chartered surveyor to answer the following questions for you.
Arranging your own survey is the simple, cost-effective way to avoid unpleasant - and perhaps expensive - surprises after moving in.
In some cases, the surveyor's report may allow you to renegotiate the price of the property.
YES, the mortgage valuation report is prepared for your lender - not for you, the borrower.
Although by its very nature the fixed Homebuyer Report has limited space to discuss extra issues, the bespoke Full Structural Survey (Building Survey) can include every query you have, from concerns about roof leaks to plans for a loft conversion.
Our letter confirming your survey instructions has details.
You have the choice of sending a cheque or paying by Internet / telephone banking (Regrettably, we do not take credit/debit cards).
We make every effort to inspect the property as quickly as possible, usually within a couple of days of receiving the confirmation of instructions.
A Building Survey is suitable for all residential properties and goes beyond the limitations of the Homebuyer Report providing a full picture of the construction and repair condition of the property.
It diagnoses defects, suggests remedies, together with a cost breakdown and gives advice on future maintenance requirements.
It also includes a comprehensive photographic record of the property and specific problem areas.
This report is tailored to the client's individual requirements and includes extensive technical information on construction and materials used as well as in depth details on significant defects.
This is a budget, simplified version of a building survey and we use a standard format published by The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.
It is suitable for houses and flats built from early 20th Century to date and either of standard or simple construction.
Unlike the full building survey, this service also includes a valuation and a fire insurance reinstatement cost valuation.
It gives basic information about the condition of the property but contains no costing or detailed recommendations with regard to repair.
