Atherstone St James was founded with the aim of providing high quality and reliable property services to clients across the country. We offer a diverse range of services across the property sector: RICS Surveys With over 30 years of experience, our staff have the expertise to advise you on the right type of survey to meet your requirements. RICS Level 3 Building Survey • The most comprehensive survey. This not only indicates all maintenance and repair issues that a property may have but explains about the likely timeframe within which maintenance and repair works are required and will also explain why repairs are needed. • Party Wall Awards You must appoint a surveyor if you and your neighbour cannot agree on undertaking any works directly on a shared party wall. Our team can prepare a Party Wall Award to resolve such disputes. We can also represent adjoining building owners if they enter into a dispute with their neighbour regarding Party Wall Works. • Landlord Services • Lease Dilapidations All of our Surveyors can represent clients in dilapidations and schedule of condition instructions. A dilapidations survey is generally undertaken towards the end of a lease or tenancy and is used to assess the current condition of a building and gives an indication of what is required to return the building to its original condition. • Schedule of Condition A schedule of condition creates a permanent record of the current condition of a property. It is commonly required in lettings and party wall awards and can be prepared for both residential and commercial properties. • Boundary Disputes It is crucial to know the correct boundary of a property as uncertainty over its physical extent may affect many aspects of ownership including physical use, rights to repair, maintenance and access to the land. Resulting disputes about boundaries can lead to costly legal action being taken so it is important to have accurate information. • Drone Surveys Atherstone St. James are Licenced Drone operators.
