Home Seller Drainage Survey

What’s included

Selling your property? One key selling factor often overlooked by sellers is the condition of their drainage system. With a UKDP survey, you will receive a detailed report including all the details of the system that you require, as well as any necessary actions that should be taken. In the event that any work is required, the report will also provide estimated costs.

Choose between our Home Seller Drainage Survey Plus and Standard to get all the information you need to stay competitive.

Note: Standard survey is fixed-price for all property sizes. The Plus survey applies to homes with up to six bedrooms. For larger properties requiring a Plus survey, please contact us to discuss.
