About The Survey

In order for our survey for all apertures to be carried out:

  • Window systems should be satisfactorily complete (including, but not limited to, having a masonry sill present with a reveal either side and a fixed lintel across the head of such aperture). If we determine that a window aperture is incomplete/incorrectly formed to the extent that we cannot accurately complete the survey we will reschedule the survey at a time that suits both parties.

  • Floor systems should be at least to a screed level finish. If it is not possible to obtain an accurate floor level measurement you must provide a datum in respect of an existing floor level within the property and you take full responsibility for these measurements If we determine that this is not sufficiently accurate, we reserve the right to reschedule the survey until such time that the apertures are of a satisfactory standard.

  • Rooflight systems must be pre-formed and In the event that the survey is not able to be carried out you must either: a) provide a final size dimensions and take full responsibility for these measurements; or b) reschedule the Survey until such time that the apertures are of a satisfactory standard.
