L3 Building Survey - Co. Antrim

Appointed by a private client to undertake a comprehensive Level 3 Building Survey of a circa 1930s–1940s altered and extended three-bedroom mid-terrace property.

The service included a drone-assisted roof inspection and followed our standard five-point communication process, ensuring clear engagement and updates throughout. The assessment provided an in-depth evaluation of the building’s condition, highlighting a range of defects, deficiencies, and risks, along with recommended repair and improvement works.

The report delivered clear, practical advice and guidance, enabling the client to make a balanced and informed decision.

Key issues identified during the survey included:
• Chimney stack structural concerns
• Strongly suspected asbestos-containing roof slates in poor condition
• Water ingress via the chimney stack and roof covering
• Elevated moisture readings to the suspended timber ground floor, increasing the risk of decay
• Elevated moisture readings to ground-floor walls at low level
• Dated and potentially hazardous electrical installation
