Level 2 or Level 3?

One of the questions we hear most often:

"Which survey do I actually need?" The answer depends on the property.

🏠 Level 2 Home Survey
Generally suited to conventional properties in reasonable condition.

🏚️ Level 3 Building Survey
A much more detailed inspection, particularly useful for older, larger, altered or unusual properties — or if you're planning significant works.

Not sure which one is right for you? That's exactly what we're here for.

Our team can talk you through the options in plain English, so you can choose the survey that makes sense for your property.

Glorious Goodwood 🥂

A brilliant day out at Goodwood with some of our clients and professional contacts across the legal, estate agency and financial services sectors.

It was a great opportunity to step away from the day-to-day, spend some quality time together and strengthen the relationships that are so important to us.

Good conversations, plenty of laughs, a fantastic lunch and an afternoon of autumn racing made for a memorable day.

At Destin Chandler Hawkins Chartered Surveyors, we really value the relationships we build with our clients and professional network, and days like this are a great reminder of the importance of getting together in person.

Thank you to everyone who joined us — it was a pleasure having you along.

A great evening of networking and catching up with familiar faces last Friday!

A big thank you to Bennett Griffin LLP - Solicitors & Legal Advisors for inviting Chris and Ian to their end-of-summer drinks at Worthing Football Club.

Before heading to Worthing, Ian and Chris took the opportunity to visit the Charters office in Havant, catching up with Ben Fenton, Robert Mott, Dan Frogley and Kevin Ashley.

We then headed to Worthing, where it was fantastic to reconnect with Josh Coleman, Sarah Pennicott, Jacqueline Mensah, Theresa Trory, Samantha Caiels, Elias Paourou, Alannah Jeffries, Christine Gillott, Joe Bailey, George Waring and, of course, Aaron Knight!

Events like these are a great opportunity to strengthen existing relationships, make new connections and enjoy some time together outside the usual working environment.

Thank you again to the team at Bennett Griffin and Worthing Football Club for the warm hospitality and a fantastic evening.
