The technical survey in Spain is the essential tool to know the real condition of a home or premises and make safe decisions when buying or selling, carrying out renovations, making claims or dealing with disputes. Our experts prepare a professional technical report, clear and verifiable, based on regulations and best practices.
What is a technical survey and what is it for?
A technical survey is an independent evaluation of the construction condition, installations, and usage of a property. It serves to identify defects and damage, determine their cause and extent, estimate repair costs, and support decisions or claims with an objective expert report.
When it is advisable to request one
- Before buying: prior technical verification to avoid surprises and negotiate with facts.
- Before selling: transparency on the property’s condition and reduced post-sale risks.
- Damage and damp issues: diagnosis of the origin (rising damp, leaks, condensation, structure, roof).
- Hidden defects and works: evaluation of snags, quality failures, or construction defects.
- Disputes and insurance: technical support for out-of-court claims or legal proceedings.
- Legalisation and renovations: current state, feasibility, and estimation of necessary works.
What our technical report includes
- On-site inspection by a qualified technician (architect/engineer) with photographic record.
- Document review: plans, licences, certificates, warranties, and manuals of installations.
- Diagnosis of pathologies: symptoms, probable causes, and associated risks.
- Cost estimation for repairs and prioritisation by urgency/impact.
- Clear conclusions, recommendations, and action plan.
- Optional: tests and measurements (moisture, thermography, light, noise), modelling and calculations.

We apply systematic visual inspection criteria and, when necessary, complementary tests. The analysis follows Spanish technical regulations and professional standards. The drafting of the expert report prioritises clarity, traceability of evidence, and data-based conclusions.
