What to do next

If the building was built or refurbished before 2000, start with a survey, because it tells you what is there before anyone disturbs it. Use the form to send the postcode, the type of property and up to five photographs, and an independent partner surveyor will contact you. If the survey finds something that has to come out, we can connect you with licensed removal contractors.
