WHEN IS A STRUCTURAL ENGINEER’S REPORT REQUIRED?
If you’ve recently had a property survey carried out and been told that a structural engineer’s report is required, it’s understandable to feel concerned. Many homeowners and buyers immediately assume there must be a serious problem with the property. In reality, that’s often not the case.
