Enfield spans from the suburban estates of Southgate and Winchmore Hill to inter-war housing in Palmers Green and Edmonton. The borough’s housing stock is predominantly inter-war and post-war construction, with average prices around £450,000. Most standard inter-war semis and post-war housing can be adequately assessed with a Level 2 home survey. However, older Victorian properties around Enfield Town, houses with significant extensions, or any property with visible defects benefit from a Level 3 investigation.
Our team covers Enfield’s residential areas from Southgate and Winchmore Hill to Palmers Green, Enfield Town and Edmonton. We have detailed experience of the inter-war and post-war housing types that dominate the borough, understanding common defects including original single-glazed windows, cavity wall insulation issues, flat roof failures and the effects of mature tree root activity on clay subsoils.
