Landmark Report Costs: Homecheck, RiskView and Buyer Screening (2026)

Which Landmark report is in the quote?

The published residential range includes Homecheck, Envirosearch and RiskView, with different scope and prices. Homecheck is presented as an environmental-risk introduction; other products add more detailed screening or planning-related content. Treat a solicitor's reference to “Landmark” as the start of a question, not a full specification. Ask for the precise product, the property boundary it covers and any follow-up reports recommended for the location. That is more useful than comparing the longest table of feature ticks.

What Homecheck says it assesses

The Homecheck page describes contaminated-land liability assessment plus ground-stability and radon assessment, with alerts for other environmental topics. It also describes a further-action review service subject to sufficient additional information. These are meaningful service differences from simply displaying a nearby public-register entry. This comparison does not imply that a warning establishes contamination or that a pass answers every possible building question. Read the report's exact recommendation, limitations and supporting evidence.

Starting price versus the full search pack

The figures above are Landmark's published starting prices before VAT, checked on 5 September 2026. They should not be compared directly with a solicitor's complete search-pack quote, which may include local-authority, drainage-and-water and additional location-specific searches. Confirm whether a quote includes VAT, the provider's administration and any additional work prompted by a result. HouseCheckup's fixed report price buys a different screening service; the difference in price is not evidence of equivalent scope at a discount.

Keep formal-search decisions with the transaction team

A buyer may want an early explanation of records before commissioning the full package, while a conveyancer may need a particular search product and contractual basis for a transaction. Both needs can exist. Share existing documents so your advisers can identify duplication and outstanding work. For the general distinction between local-authority searches and environmental reports, read searches when buying a house. Our Groundsure comparison gives another example of why products within the same provider's range must be named precisely.

What a HouseCheckup report can establish

HouseCheckup combines the available official-source risk maps, property records and area context for a chosen address. A person reviews the report before it is emailed. A score using 6 factors is shown where sufficient data is available; missing checks are identified. Sold-price records are context, not a valuation. Planning designations are not a complete planning-application history. Ground and radon bands describe mapped areas rather than measurements of the building. Neither a postcode match nor a reassuring score proves that a property has no defects.

Our current purchase options are Lite £9.99 and Complete £24.99, paid once. We do not promise an automated valuation, title register, owner names, a contaminated-land liability opinion or a CON29M search. A physical survey and the legal searches requested by a solicitor serve different purposes. Check the illustrative sample and current offer and delivery terms before ordering.

Make the comparison on the same basis

Use the exact product name when checking a quote. A consumer report, recurring research account, professional data platform and formal environmental search are different purchases. Confirm the address, geographic coverage, records included and the date of any source before relying on a result. A feature absent from a public checklist is not proof that the provider cannot supply it. This page reports what we could verify publicly; it does not award a numerical quality score or reproduce unverified customer allegations.

For the broader buying decision, see our report comparison guide and the self-published HouseCheckup review. If you need something our report does not supply, use the relevant official service or professional rather than interpreting a lower price as equivalent coverage.
