ABOUT CONWY

Conwy is one of North Wales’ most historically significant towns, with a strong concentration of older stone-built housing, cottages and traditional terraces set within a coastal and heritage environment. Properties close to the medieval town centre often feature solid wall construction, ageing roofs and traditional materials that require specialist consideration.

The combination of exposed weather conditions and older building fabric means defects such as moisture penetration, timber deterioration and external wear can develop gradually over time. For buyers purchasing traditional homes in Conwy or properties that have been altered or extended, a full building survey is often the best way to understand the condition in detail before commitment.
