To be fair surveyors have a lot to answer for, filling their reports with scary boilerplate about how everything might need replacing. This tends to put the willies up people who are about to spend more money than they ever have in their life on something that could ruin them.
It's easy to be a bit nonchalant about it when you've bought a few houses and presumably now have the means to spend £k on them after purchase.
