Appointing an RICS chartered building surveyor to inspect building defects such as timber decay, damp or movement can be highly beneficial for a number of reasons:
 
Expertise: RICS chartered building surveyors are experts in building construction and maintenance, and are trained to identify building defects and determine their causes. They can provide detailed reports on the state of a building and the repairs required, which is essential in ensuring that any defects are addressed effectively.
 
Understanding of the law: RICS chartered building surveyors are knowledgeable about the relevant laws and regulations that govern building defects. They can advise on the legal requirements for tenants and landlords, and ensure that any repairs or remedial work is carried out in accordance with the relevant legislation.
Impartiality: RICS chartered building surveyors are bound by a strict code of conduct that requires them to provide impartial and independent advice. This means that they will provide an objective assessment of the building defects and their causes, and will work to ensure that any repairs or remedial work is fair and reasonable.
 
Communication skills: RICS chartered building surveyors are trained to communicate complex technical issues in a clear and concise manner that can be easily understood by non-experts. This is important in ensuring that any building defects are accurately identified and addressed effectively.
