Specialist Surveys for Mortgages, Equity Release
Building Societies have tightened up on their criteria for
lending during the recession/credit crunch and even though
you may think that you have jumped through all the hoops and
obstacles they put in your way and are just about to get
your mortgage they will invariably say, just at the last
minute-before exchange of contracts, that there is some
dampness and timber decay related problems and that a
specialist damp and timber survey is required before the
mortgage will be granted.
Often your Estate Agent may have an arrangement with a
damp-proofing and timber treatment company to provide a
‘free survey’ and ask them to undertake an inspection and
provide a quote. But don’t be taken in by these free surveys
as there are simply a way for many firms to provide you with
quote for work that is not really necessary and will often
cost thousands of pounds when there is often a much simpler
and cheaper option.
Much of this damp-proofing work is unnecessary as rising
dampness is often assumed to be the problem when it may in
fact be condensation or penetrating damp, due to raised
ground levels etc., and these two problems can usually be
remedied at a fraction of the cost of remedial works.
Similarly woodworm and fungal infestations are usually
confined to damp timbers and can be controlled by the
removal of the dampness and often the infestation or decay
will die out naturally without the need for any preservative
treatments.
