Generably not much at all. Of course in instances of gross negligence, you may have a case. Did you sign an agreement? If you dealt with an acredited surveyor, you may have additional options.

Read the fine print. Most surveyors have disclaimers wherein you release them from any omissions and/or errors. That being said, there are many good ones out the . Do your homework when selecting one.
