Missing earth on Wolverhampton light fitting.

A Homebueyers Survey and Report by our Chartered Surveyors in Wolverhampton noted a missing earthing wire. The terminal towards the bottom of the picture should have a cable with green and yellow sleeve connecting back to an earth. Lack of earthing makes it dangerous to use metal light fittings or switches and is likely to be indicative the the system is dated or installed by an amateur.

Corroding Steel in Wolverhampton

Rust discovered by our Chartered Surveyors on a Wolverhampton Homebuyers Survey and Report. The rust is caused by corrosion of the steel beads used to give the external render a straight edge. The rust may eventually force the render off. Unfortunately the only way to remedy the problem is to remove the angle bead and insert another which is not expensive. However most would than want to repaint the unsightly patch repair of the render and it then becomes necessary to paint the whole elevation for a satisfactory finish.

11th December 2014 Suspected dampness in Wolverhampton bungalow.

Lifting thermoplastic tiles were noted by our Chartered Surveyors during a Homebuyers survey in Wolverhampton.

Our surveyors always treat lifting thermoplastic tiles with suspicion as they may be caused by dampness. There appeared to be an impervious membrane under these tiles suggesting that they are lifting due to poor bonding or a water spillage.
