Costs & process
Yes. A buyer's drainage survey that finds defects becomes a price negotiation or a delay at the worst possible moment. Surveying and repairing beforehand costs less than the reduction a buyer will ask for, and a clean report is a genuine selling asset.
Buyers negotiate against worst-case repair estimates, not actual costs. A £600 patch repair can easily become a £5,000 deduction request once a defect is on paper without context.
Having your own dated survey and repair invoice removes the uncertainty and takes the issue off the table.
It also protects against last-minute renegotiation, which is when most chains collapse.
