The Co-operative has recently appointed the building surveying consultant AJ Balfour Associates to carry out a routine building survey of our properties.
The survey will start from Tuesday 11th August 2026 with the aim of completing the surveys by Thursday 13th August 2026. A surveyor may call at your home within these dates to carry out a survey. However, if they find you are not at home they will try and gain access to another property in the block. We must stress that you do not have to wait in for a surveyor to call and you do not have to take time off work etc.
The survey should last around 10 minutes and involves a visual survey of the internal structure. It will not involve any disruption to your furniture and fittings.
The Surveyors will carry photographic ID along with a letter of authority issued by the Co-operative and this will be on the same headed paper as this letter. You should ask to see these before allowing the Surveyor into your home.
Should you have any concerns or queries about the survey please contact the Property Services (Option 1) team at the office.
I very much hope that you will be able to assist with this and would like to thank you in advance for your help with gathering this vital information.
