I therefore paid out for a specialist damp surveyor and negotiated the cottage price based in the report. Here I am , barely 5 months after moving in , having to spend almost £20,000 on a new roof. Rotten timbers, joists, perlins snapped !!!! Unexpected large expense NOT negotiated for in cottage price. NOT impressed with the surveyor, or his 78 page report that seemed far more concerned with wobbly stair bannister and lack of safety glass in internal doors!! Seems pointless having a survey if they don’t pick up major issues.
