It will be assumedthat the services, and any associated controls or software, are in working order or free from defect. No warranty or guarantee is given or implied.

 

·          No soil or underground tests will be carried out. It will therefore been assumed that there are no soil or site problems which would adversely affect any of the existing buildings or any of the open land which may or may not be used for future extensions.

·          Measurements will be in accordance with the RICS code of measuring practice.
