ABOUT PRESTON
Preston includes a wide mix of older residential neighbourhoods, with Victorian terraces, interwar suburbs and extended family homes forming much of the city’s housing stock. Areas such as Fulwood and Penwortham contain many properties where alterations and ageing construction can introduce issues not immediately visible during viewings.
With strong transport connections and continued development, buyers are often purchasing older homes requiring careful assessment of damp, roof condition, structural movement and long-term maintenance. A comprehensive building survey provides a more detailed appraisal where the property is not modern, standard or straightforward in construction.
