Agents notes

The structural surveyor has advised of weather deterioration to the masonry at the centre of the gable height and visible bowing to the mid height of the external gable end includes cracking in various places internally, concluding a drainage survey was required to locate the source of the issue. The subsequent drainage survey has concluded the kitchen sink is visibly damaged and leaking water into the ground between bricks. Additionally, the pipework leading from the manhole to the gully has been made redundant, with previous work not carried out correctly further leaking water into the surrounding sub soil. Costs of remedial work have been quoted at £800+VAT. The pipework from FW1 to the main is badly cracked the majority of the way down, with remedial works quoted at £2400+VAT. Full reports for both the structural survey and drainage survey can be provided upon request. Potential purchasers should be made aware that they must make their own enquiries, with no representations or guarantees made by the vendor or Starkings & Watson.
