What responsibility does the surveyor take?
I make every effort to do my work conscientiously and to provide thorough, detailed and comprehensive reports and work to a clearly defined ‘Code of Conduct’. If you require a more thorough inspection than is ‘standard’ then please discuss this with me beforehand. This may involve engaging a shipwright to remove (and replace) fastenings or interior paneling and this will normally require obtaining written permission from the vessel’s owner. I can arrange for ultrasonic testing, x-rays, engine oil analysis, compression testing, keel bolt withdrawal and inspection, testing of electronic equipment and so on but these services are not part of a ‘standard’ inspection and would obviously involve extra expense. For a more comprehensive explanation I refer you to the ‘Legal Information’ page of this website and ask you to read it carefully before engaging my services.
