  1. Hi everyone, First time poster. I've recently purchased a Timber Framed house, built in the early 90's. Love the house, went in with heart first probably. We did get a survey, but it didn't go heavily into detail. I'd been through that before, you get the initial survey, then they recommend a specialist who goes in to look at something, but can't really comment because of lack of access, who recommends another specialist to go in, and so on - all very non committal in my experience, maybe I just chose badly. Anyway, we've moved in now. Still love it, but as time passes we have noticed a couple of interesting smells. I am guessing it might be a damp somewhere, there is nothing obvious / visible other than a leak that has appeared downstairs from a poorly sealed shower tray above. I'm way at the bottom end of the DIY spectrum, and don't really know where to start. It got me thinking though, I'd like to find someone who could come and give the house an MOT. Someone who fully understands timber framed properties, with render cladding and all the joys that goes with them. I'm guess I'm looking back into the world of surveyors, but is there such an expert (or just a knowledgable self builder) on this forum who might be able to provide such a service. Thanks in advance, Shiver
