Gas · Buying or selling
Gas and heating inspections for buyers and sellers.
A boiler near the end of its life, a missing Declaration of Conformance or an unsafe gas appliance can hold up a sale or cost a buyer thousands after moving in. We inspect the heating and gas installation and give you a plain written report. From €120 incl. VAT.
In short
Before you buy or sell a house in Cork, we inspect the boiler, heating and gas installation and give you a plain written report. The report covers the boiler's age and condition, safety issues and any missing Declaration of Conformance, so problems come to light before they hold up the sale or surprise the buyer after moving in.

For sellers
A recent service record and gas safety check answer the questions a buyer's surveyor will ask, and let you fix small issues before they become bargaining points.
For buyers
A general surveyor looks at the building. We look at the heating and gas in detail and can price any replacement quickly, so you know before you sign.
