Should I get a survey done on brand-new house?

Quite apart from the structure of the house you should also find out if
there are any legal technicalities such as covenants, shared access,
rights
of way etc. Things like this can cause big problems if you don't know
about
them until somebody parks their car in your front garden!

True, but AIUI, that is part and parcel of the solicitor's search
work....

Yes, I agree, but a solicitor might see such things as so routine that he
might not bring them to the attention of the buyer. It's worth asking to be
on the safe side.
