All Angles Covered Since 1880

We aren't just surveyors; we are a part of Scotland's property history. For over 140 years, Shepherd Chartered Surveyors has been the cornerstone of the Scottish property market. Whether you are a first-time buyer in Glasgow, a commercial investor in Aberdeen, or selling a family home in the Highlands, we bring a century of expertise to your doorstep.

Our philosophy is simple: we combine the vast resources of a national firm with the intimate, nuanced knowledge of a local specialist. When you work with us, you get the best of both worlds.

"Our mission is to provide comprehensive local market knowledge with the benefit of national coverage, ensuring every angle is covered for our clients."

A Local Team with National Reach

We pride ourselves on being "on the ground." Our surveyors live and work in the communities they serve.

This means when we value a property, we aren't just looking at spreadsheets—we’re looking at the street, the school catchments, and the local trends that only a resident would know. Following our successful merger with Hardies Property and Construction Consultants, we also offer an integrated approach to construction and development projects across the country.
