Major Defect Survey

The Level 1 Brief Major Defect Survey gives general comments on each element as far as each can be seen but does not comment on decorations. The report is brief and whilst any defects are identified, no comment is included on the remedial work required to rectify these defects. The loft inspection is carried out from the top of a ladder. No floor coverings are lifted, no wall coverings are disturbed and no furniture is moved.

One window is tested in each elevation and a sample of internal doors is tested. No manhole cover is lifted. Comments are included briefly on the services from a visual inspection but these are not operated.
