Liverpool offers a huge variety of housing, from converted warehouses and modern apartments in the city centre and Baltic Triangle, to Georgian terraces in Canning Street and Falkner Street, Victorian semis in Allerton and Wavertree, and family homes in areas like Crosby, Woolton, and Aigburth. But behind every house front, there could be hidden problems that only a professional survey will uncover.
At ASL, our RICS-accredited surveyors know the quirks of Liverpool’s housing stock. We regularly report on issues such as damp in older terraces, structural movement in extended semis, and snagging defects in new-build apartments, and provide clear, practical reports that highlight what’s sound, what needs attention, and what could prove costly.
With ASL, you can make your move in Liverpool with confidence that your investment is secure.
Our surveys are written in plain English, so you know where you stand, and can act with clarity and confidence. We use a simple traffic light system to highlight property condition.
Green = Everything’s in good shape. No repairs needed, just routine maintenance.
Amber = Some repairs or replacements may be needed, but nothing urgent.
Red = Urgent action required. Delayed repairs could lead to further damage or pose a safety risk.
For those purchasing an older or heavily altered property, a Level 3 Building Survey is designed to uncover structural defects, highlight hidden issues, and provide repair recommendations with cost guidance.
In Liverpool, these are commonly requested for Georgian terraces, Victorian semis, or period homes across the suburbs.
A clear, mid-level inspection for homes in reasonable condition, to provide a detailed but non-intrusive inspection of a home’s condition. Highlights visible defects, maintenance concerns, and legal issues. Does not include in-depth structural assessment.
Often chosen for 1930s semis, post-war homes, or newer developments.
An official, independent assessment of your property’s market value, compliant with RICS global standards. Essential for mortgage applications, probate, divorce settlements, and often requested for shared equity homes.
If you’re planning an extension, loft conversion, or excavation near a neighbour’s property in Liverpool, you may need a Party Wall Survey to comply with the Party Wall etc. Act 1996.
Our impartial surveyors keep your project compliant, while helping to avoid disputes. These surveys are particularly valuable in densely built areas like Anfield, Everton, and city-centre terraces, where homes share walls or sit close together.
