How much does a house survey cost in Wigston?

• Level 2 Home Survey: Often in the region of £350–£600 for a standard-sized house or flat.
• Level 3 Building Survey: Commonly £700–£1,200+ where the property is large, older or in visibly poor condition.
• Price drivers: Size, age, construction type, value and location all affect the fee.
• Extras: Some surveyors charge more for additional services such as valuations, damp readings or follow‑up inspections.
• Get quotes: It is always worth comparing a few RICS‑regulated firms who know Wigston and Leicester.

Survey fees are not fixed, but most firms working around Wigston use similar bandings. A straightforward modern house or flat will usually sit in the lower survey brackets, while larger, older or heavily altered properties cost more to inspect and report on.

A Level 2 survey is generally cheaper because it is less invasive and focused on visible condition. A Level 3 survey is more detailed, takes longer on site and results in a longer report, which is why the price is higher.

When comparing quotes, make sure you are comparing like‑for‑like survey types and ask whether the surveyor is locally experienced and RICS‑regulated.
