The survey provides essential insights into the electrical system’s safety and functionality, which is crucial for any homebuyer. It helps in making an informed decision and can be instrumental in avoiding unforeseen costs related to electrical repairs after purchase.
Is this survey necessary for newly built homes?
Yes, a Homebuyers Electrical Survey is advisable even for newly built homes. While new constructions are generally compliant with the latest safety standards, this survey serves as a validation to ensure that all electrical installations are correctly installed and functioning safely. It’s a crucial step in the home buying process, providing peace of mind that your new property in London or the Home Counties is electrically sound.
