Has your surveyor returned yet?

If so, what did they say?

Says he made no errors and sticks by his original report

Well things have moved on.

First time up in the loft and saw this has been removed!!! Surveyor completely missed this. There looks to have been a wall there that has been removed. The chimney woodwork is held up by bricks throughout the loft except this one. 

I'm getting a structural engineer round. 

I'll get my husband to take another. It is a massive wood beam spanning the whole loft. House is a 4 bed double fronted detached - wide roof. There are lots of brick walls in the loft holding up the wooden beam but this one removed. 

To me that looks as if thats where the wall ends, i dont think anything was removed. The surveyor will be able to clarify that for you. Whats the ventilation like up there?

Ventilation? There isn't any

Your still obsessing... step away from the house.

You have gone from knocking holes in walls to accusing others of knocking holes in walls... the walls of your house are fine, this has been confirmed by professionals so stop.

My husband saw this in the loft and was worried. Here are some of the many issues:

Just sell the house; you're never going to be happy there.

I love the house but just worried about the never ending issues we are finding

A lot of what you are posting is things you should have seen when you were viewing the property, the surveyor has given you a report that there is noting major. Most of what you have posted is cosmetic and can be rectified either by DIY or by a professional at a cost but noting into the £0000s.

If you love the house then stop picking holes in it and look at what you need to do/want to do with the things you find.

But you’ve got no evidence they are real issues. You’re seeing problems where there are none and the survey is fine. I’d get another survey in for peace of mind. And try to stop obsessing about this as much as you are.

I am beginning to wonder whether it is all a wind up ?

That’s unkind.
Anxiety is a very real issue that can lead to all sorts of overthinking and this is a classic example of how it can go. This could be my sibling posting because we have very similar conversations about his property.
So no, I don’t think it’s a wind up at all.
