Property Expert combating Cowboy Builders, Outwith Court I talk and post a bit about property, defects and surveying. Once had great hair, now receeding!

Ever wondered what the inside of your stone chimneystack looks like? Hopefully not like this one! #buildingsurveying

It's been an interesting few months swapping my more usual surveying chores to media appearances on BBC Watchdog, Channel 4 Dispatches and now a BBC News interview. @RICSScotland @RICSnews #surveyor

A little light reading on today's church survey...a 1930s newspaper in the roof void.

Extremely worrying that this can happen in 2019! https://t.co/sd8vxhP5ec

If you try and appoint a professional person to survey a [new build] house before you buy it, most house builders will say no. You'll only be able to bring in someone after you've purchased it.

Channel 4 Dispatches tonight at 8pm, see preview link below featuring myself @surveyorexpert - see if you can spot me in the preview.

Britain has a problem with new build homes which many owners say have been poorly built.
​
So Dispatches hired an independent snagging expert to asses a brand new house - he says he found 295 faults.

Interesting to be interviewed by BBC Radio London this morning. My views are that the use of combustible materials below an outdated and arbitary height of 18m is not an effective regulation. Regulation change is essential to ensure adequate and safe fire design. #BarkingFire
