Surveying can come in many different forms. Most homeowners will come across a Home Buyer’s Survey within the procedure of buying or selling a home. The Home Buyer’s Survey is performed to make sure that the home buyer is completely conscious of the condition of the property they are buying, as well as any likely issues around insulation, damp proofing or drainage. For older buildings or for buildings where the buyer is less assured of its condition, a full building survey can be undertaken, which goes into more detail when compared to a Home Buyer’s Survey, and will identify any further problems with the property as well as including an evaluation of the land surrounding the building.
Surveyors can also help with any extensions, conversions or alterations that you intend to have done on your existing property. They can offer advice about how exactly your alteration might impact your neighbours, either in terms of their right to light or by demanding a party wall agreement.
When searching for a company to attempt surveying work, make sure you choose a chartered surveyor qualified by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.

Abbey Wood is a district of South East London in the London Boroughs of Greenwich and Bexley. It gets its name from Lesnes Abbey Wood, which used to be the property of the monks of Lesnes Abbey. It is located south of Thamesmead and is 10.6 miles east of Charing Cross. Abbey Wood has a population of no more than 24,000 and is said to be a quiet area.
The district is popular amid commuters; it has an average age of 34 and its railway station was built in 1849 and today it accommodates services to Charing Cross, Cannon Street and areas in Kent as a loop service. There are also buses that offer links to Thamesmead, Lewisham and Peckham.
Abbey Wood is known for its caravan park positioned amongst the Abbey Woods. The woods have a park and a football pitch, and the neighbouring Bostall Gardens and Bostall Heath have lots of sports facilities. Part of the woods is a site of special scientific interest because it has fossils that date back as far as 23-66 million years ago.
