Preserving the Architectural Heritage of Bath

We understand that owning a property in Bath and the surrounding areas often means being a steward of history. At John Mullen Building Surveying, we specialise in the delicate balance between modern requirements and historic preservation.

Whether you are planning a sensitive renovation of a Grade II listed home or need expert guidance on building regulations, we provide the technical rigour and RICS-chartered authority required to move your project forward. We don't just see a building; we see its history and its potential.

From Concept to Completion: Our Design & Planning Services

Navigating the complexities of planning and building control can be daunting. We take the stress out of the process by providing a complete, end-to-end service.

We handle everything from the initial measured surveys to the final design for submission to the Local Authority. Our expertise includes:

• Building Conservation: Specialist advice on the repair and maintenance of historic fabric.
• Listed Building Applications: Expert preparation of applications to ensure your heritage project meets all regulatory requirements.
• Architectural Design: Creating functional, beautiful spaces that respect the original character of your property.
• Building Regulations: Ensuring every detail of your project is compliant and safe.

Specialist Fire Safety & Risk Management

Beyond architectural design, we are trusted consultants in fire safety. We carry out comprehensive fire risk assessments to ensure your property—and its occupants—remain protected.

Our dual expertise in building surveying and fire safety allows us to offer holistic advice that many standard design firms cannot. We provide practical, actionable fire safety strategies tailored to the specific layout and use of your building.
