Lost in translation
Your survey says it politely.
We tell you what it actually means.
Surveyors write for professionals, not buyers. Here’s what the language really means — and what it’ll cost you.
Survey says
"The roof covering is showing signs of deterioration and will require attention in the near future."
What this means for you
Roof replacement needed — likely within 2 years. Negotiate before you commit.
Survey says
"Some dampness was noted at low level on the north-facing wall. Further investigation is advised."
What this means for you
Active damp ingress. Untreated, this causes timber decay and mould. Get a specialist report before exchange.
Survey says
"The electrical installation should be inspected and tested by a qualified electrician prior to purchase."
What this means for you
Likely partial rewire required. Budget for this before making an offer.
Home Clarity reads every line of your survey and translates it for you — before you make an offer.
What's at stake
See the real cost of a property
A surveyor might write “roof needs attention.” We tell you that could mean £6,000–£15,000 before you make your offer.
- Roof replacement£6,000 – £15,000
- Damp treatment£2,000 – £8,000
- Electrical rewire£3,000 – £8,000
- Subsidence or underpinning£5,000 – £50,000
- Boiler replacement£2,000 – £4,500
- Drainage issues£1,000 – £10,000
The average buyer finds £8,000–£25,000 of required works buried in their survey.
Home Clarity surfaces every issue — before you make your decision.

Most buyers never fully read their survey
The report is 40–80 pages of technical language written by professionals for professionals. You skim the summary. You assume the rest is fine. Then you hand over the largest sum of money of your life.
Hidden in those pages: structural problems, drainage failures, and repair costs that can run to tens of thousands of pounds. Costs that change whether the property makes financial sense at all.
Home Clarity finds them in seconds — so you are not the last person to know what is wrong with the home you are about to buy.
