Retrospective Professional Consultants Certificates in Bristol

Yes. We have RICS Chartered Building Surveyors covering Bristol and the surrounding area, so a site inspection is usually possible within a week of you confirming the booking. The whole process is managed online at a fixed fee.

Pricing is fixed and the same wherever you are in the UK: £950 for a single dwelling, £600 per unit on developments of six or more, and bespoke pricing on 50+ unit schemes. There's no surcharge for issuing the certificate retrospectively, and no inflated city rates.

From booking the inspection to a signed certificate is typically seven days. With surveyors local to Bristol, the site visit is rarely the bottleneck, we can prioritise time-critical sales and remortgages, and a 3-day priority turnaround is available for an extra fee.

It depends on the lender. A PCC issued during construction is accepted by most lenders under Section 6.7 of the UK Finance Lenders' Handbook, but a retrospective PCC is accepted by fewer and the position varies from lender to lender. We check your specific lender's requirements before you book and tell you straight if a retrospective PCC won't work for them.

It's rarely a deal-breaker. We work with what you have and verify what we can on site. Where Building Control records have been lost we may rely on the surveyor's assessment plus a regularisation certificate from the local authority. We'll tell you up front if anything affects the certificate's scope.
