How homeSurvey works

A full property condition check in under 10 minutes — just your phone, the app, and a systematic walk-around.

1

Download the app

homeSurvey is free on iOS and Android. Search “usurv” or “homeSurvey” in your app store and install. No account needed to start — just open and go.

2

Start a new survey

Tap “New Survey” and enter the property address. Run a Quick Scan (10 minutes, key areas) or a Full Survey (room by room, comprehensive). Pick based on how serious you are about the property.

3

Follow the guided walkthrough

The app takes you room by room — exterior, roof, walls, windows, each internal room, loft if accessible. For each area it tells you what to photograph and what to look for. No building knowledge required.

4

AI analyses your photos instantly

As you upload photos, the AI analyses them in real time. It identifies visible defects — damp staining, cracking, mould, condition of pointing, gutters, windows — and classifies each by severity. Results appear as you go.

5

Read your property health score

Once complete, homeSurvey produces a Property Health Score out of 1,000. Green means nothing significant found. Amber means look closer. Red means you need a professional before proceeding.

6

Use the report to negotiate or walk away

The in-app report lists every flagged defect with estimated repair cost ranges. Take it into your negotiation, use it to brief your solicitor, or share it with a professional surveyor to focus their visit.
