wanted surveyor to check the loft and this was not done as surveyor did not have a ladder as I understand, also could not give details if the local area had any history subsidence. I telephoned Christchurch Council to obtain the information. Surveyor did not know if the cavity walls was insulated or not. I asked the owner if the new if the walls were insulated and they said no they are not insulated, the reason for this was that they did not want the holes drilled into the wall, also at the back of the house there were vertical tiles and they did want to take the tiles off to enable for the holes to be drilled. My experience of surveyors from past is not good
