Building Surveys in Edinburgh and Glasgow

Heritage and Design Ltd - Building Surveyors carries out regular surveys of historic, old and listed buildings in and around Edinburgh and Glasgow and knows the local materials, construction methods, weather patterns and common defects very well so is also best placed to carry out specialist timber and damp surveys.

As building surveyors, we understand how buildings work, we can identify how they were built, what they were made of, what changes have taken place and what has gone wrong.  This, obviously, takes time so, if a 'surveyor' 'diagnoses' an issue after 20 minutes in your house, throw them out.

Even in new-build houses, which we also survey regularly, there are multiple issues contributing to symptoms from poorly finished mastic around windows, incorrectly installed windows, missing mortar in brickwork, warped timber, blocked vents and even square rainwater downpipes sitting on round drainage below ground....

So, if you have on-going issues that your local builder or damp-proofing company hasn't remedied, why not ask someone who knows what they're talking about?
