A professional, unbiased damp and timber survey keeps real estate buyers protected. Here, we outline standard costs in Dorset.
We charge a standard flat rate of £250 + VAT for a pre-purchase damp and timber inspection across Dorset, Bournemouth, and Poole. Level 2 Homebuyer surveys are priced from £395 + VAT.
Beware of contractors who offer 'free damp surveys'—these are usually sales operations designed to pitch unneeded DPC membrane injections averaging £3,000 to £6,000. Paying for an independent survey preserves your peace of mind.
