Whether you're a first-time buyer or seasoned homeowner, our Expert Home Buyers Surveys (Levels 1, 2, and 3) provide the clarity you need before committing to a purchase. Serving all of Northern Ireland, we uncover potential issues, hidden risks, and opportunities for negotiation before you sign on the dotted line.
At PDC Chartered Surveyors & Property Consultancy, we understand how much is at stake when buying a property. That’s why we’ve earned a reputation across Northern Ireland for delivering honest, impartial, and detailed home surveys backed by over 15 years of experience.
From Belfast city apartments to rural farmhouses, our RICS Accredited Surveyors assess every home with the same meticulous care, helping you make the right move with confidence.
A Home Buyers Survey is a professional evaluation of a property's condition, designed to highlight structural issues, urgent repairs, and general maintenance concerns before purchase.
Depending on your needs and the property's age and condition, we offer three levels of survey—from a concise overview (Level 1) to a comprehensive structural assessment (Level 3).
Each survey helps protect your investment and can strengthen your position when negotiating price or requesting repairs before completion.

I had a great experience with PDC Chartered Surveyors. Martina and the team at PDC made the whole process smooth, ensuring everything was well communicated. The report was very detailed and I would highly recommend their services.
Very thorough report, recommend doing the on site walkthrough also.
Highly recommend! Communication with Martina is excellent and quick! A very efficient service.
Excellent service. Communicated all steps clearly and in a timely fashion. Survey itself was done to a high standard. Highly recommended
We solicited several surveyors to use for our proposed purchase. Through our interactions we decided to go with PDC based on Martina’s no pressure approach, her open and honest advice as well as her customer first attitude. We were not disappointed. When the survey was completed Paddy and Martina walked my wife and me through their findings and gave us the information we needed in an easy to understand way. This allowed us to make the right decision for not only our immediate needs and wants but for the future. We cannot thank or recommend PDC (Paddy and Martina) enough and they would be our go to providers again if we required another survey. Brilliant service, brilliant people.
Friendly, fast and I could ask as many questions as I needed. Martina has been brilliant every step of the way, no hassle. Have worked with them 5 times and wouldn’t buy a house now without Paddy. 10/10 would definitely recommend!!
Paddy is brilliant he has saved us buying some really bad properties. Would not buy without paddy surveying first
Professional and very helpful service from Paddy and Martina. They provided a timely comprehensive survey of my property and were very generous with their time in dealing with my queries and assisting me locate local trades people.
Both Martina and Paddy were absolutely great from beginning to end. Very professional and very quick turnaround time from initial enquiry to undertaking the site survey to then producing the survey report. Both Martina and Paddy are extremely knowledgeable and were absolutely great at answering all of our initial questions, and Paddy explained the surveying process to us in an easy to understand and accessible way. Would not hesitate in using PDC again in future on any projects and would be definitely recommending them for any project. Thanks again Martina & Paddy!
I contacted PDC for a quote for a survey on a property I was interested in. From the beginning, Martina has been fantastic and couldn't do enough to help me! Whether it was talking me through the survey to ensure I fully understood its contents, or offering reassurance, the service has been exceptional. The survey and report were both extremely valuable when it came to negations, and decision making as Paddy makes sure that everything you need is detailed. I would highly recommend PDC to anyone that requires their services as they are the only aspect of the entire house buying process that I haven't had to second guess, for me, they are the best in the business.
PDC have been excellent, the report was detailed and much appreciated. The survey covered items that we had not thought about. You are in safe hands with this company!
We had a really positive experience with PDC, Patrick did a very thorough survey and explained everything really well to me. Martina was excellent and we got our report quickly after the survey . The survey itself is very clear. Thank you so much Paddy and Martina for the great help and for all the advices and for the support.
PDC were recommended to me to undertake a survey of a house I am buying. The property is old so it was important to get a good survey. I am very happy with the survey I received, its really comprehensive, explained things clearly and I found the use of photos really helpful. The report raised some structural issues which I am exploring further and am really grateful that it was so comprehensive. I really enjoyed speaking with Martina, she explained things really well and always responded quickly. I am really glad I used PDC and would like to thank them for the great service they provided.
Thanks PDC for the quick, professional and helpful service! My Pre Purchase Report was detailed covering what I needed to see and nothing was too much when dealing with Martina who was very responsive in dealing with any requests and organising the survey. Thanks again, Stephen
Got an excellent service from the company. Survey completed when advised.
