    Has my UK property had its 10 year inspection performed correctly?

    Hi, and thank you for the quick reply. Comments much appreciated Yes, I should have been more specific, it is “unsatisfactory”. However, in terms of my house insurance, it is a fail, as I will not be able to obtain house insurance without a “satisfactory” report. We are in the process of...
