We are a modern practice of Chartered Surveyors, with over 20 year’s professional experience in the property market.
We provide a hands-on, personal approach to all new instructions and pride ourselves on achieving 1st class customer service time and time again.
Building Surveys
This is the ‘gold’ service – in terms of professional, pre-purchase property inspections. Not all surveys are the same and you will get what you pay for. We provide a full and comprehensive survey and inspection report that includes a schedule of essential repairs and cost estimates along with illustrative photographs.
If problems are identified, we take time to investigate whilst on site and report the problem in full with a positive solution and cost advice. We can assist with contractors’ quotes and managing the works if needed.
RICS HomeBuyer Report
The ‘silver’ service and a general inspection report that suits smaller properties built after 1900. It is a standard form of reporting for clients that need peace of mind and an independent opinion of the property's overall condition.
Structural Inspections
This is a specific defect report or a whole house inspection dealing with structural elements only. We can advise on settlement, subsidence and general movement or cracking with illustrative diagnostic reports and sketch drawings / remedial detailing. We can assist with arranging appropriate contractors and certifying works.
Expert Witness Reports
We provide a range of expert advice on a number of property-related matters and prepare expert witness reports for building disputes including: landlord & tenant, housing, dilapidations, conservatories, window installations and faulty building construction.
Party Walls
We regularly act as Party Wall surveyors and can prepare notices and awards. We assist with boundary disputes and prepare pre-start schedules of condition.
Architectural Design
We have a small in-house design team and regularly prepare quality architectural scale plans from simple internal alterations to extensions and new build construction in the private and commercial sectors.
We can assist with project budgets and management of works to contract administration and certification of accounts.
