Chartered Surveyors in Martlesham

The historic village of Martlesham was recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) as Merlesham, although evidence of Roman settlements has also been found. It is home to two pubs and the idyllic Martlesham creek, which is a popular location for both sailing and wildlife walks. Residents often refer to the parish as ‘Old Martlesham’ as a means of distinguishing the older village with the more recent Martlesham Heath development. Martlesham boasts a number of features and attractions, including a local leisure, health and fitness centre and the Martlesham Heath Control Tower Museum in the newer development. Properties range from beautiful detached houses with spacious gardens to distinguished bungalows and 18th-century cottages.

Detailed Explanation

As part of the service we feel it is important to not only provide a survey report but also take some time to review this with the client. This is a service that some larger practices and banks are unable to do but it is a crucial part of the process. We make sure that the client understands the report and any issues found in it. Along with this we are able to discuss the evidence and reasons behind any issues as well as the implications they may have on the building and the purchase itself.

Local Knowledge

Special challenges in Martlesham include possible flooding from the nearby River Deben. Clients may need to consider special flood treatment for their chosen purchase. For older buildings you may need to consider challenges such as structural movement, rising and penetrating damp and more.
