    I'd advise not using the topped up bank survey. I did this, and then the bank had ALL the info about the flat, particularly the damp issues and wouldn't lend, firstly, at all, then after arguing, without a caveat that I got a damp course (3-5k) fitted within 1 yr of moving in. Caused a while load of unnecessary hassle so will go for independent survey for future purchases.

  • I didn't got for the full fat survey, went for the middle option (think it's referred to as the 'homebuyers report'?). Around £600 from memory, but that included the bank's valuation fee.

    Some other quotes I for the same level of survey from other surveyors at the time (2014) were:

    Tony Mason - £575
    Dunsin Surveyors - £780
    Maunder Taylor - £900
    Talbot Surveyors - £810.
