About Smith Heritage Surveyors
Why We Only Ever Book One Survey a Day
Most surveying firms push their team to complete multiple inspections in a single day. We don't. At Smith Heritage Surveyors, we believe your future home deserves undivided attention.
By limiting our surveyors to one property per day, we ensure every nook, cranny, and potential defect is thoroughly investigated without the pressure of a ticking clock. This allows us to produce tailored, highly detailed reports that give you total peace of mind before you commit to a purchase.
Specialists in the Soul of Old Buildings
Whether it’s a Grade II listed cottage in the Cotswolds or a Victorian terrace in London, period properties require a different language. We specialise in traditional building methods, understanding how lime mortar, timber frames, and thatch roofs need to breathe.
We don't just spot problems; we explain the why behind them and provide honest, independent advice on the best path forward.

From Our Home to Yours: The Smith Heritage Story
Our journey didn't start in a boardroom; it started in 2010 with a toolkit and a drafty old house. Founders Dave and Emmeline spent years learning the hard way how to restore historic properties using traditional methods.
That hands-on passion evolved into a professional practice dedicated to helping you avoid the pitfalls of buying older homes. Today, we are a family-run team that combines that original passion with RICS-accredited expertise.
Comprehensive Insights from Above and Within
We use modern technology to protect traditional architecture. From drone surveys that capture high-level roof defects to specialist thatch roof inspections and damp and timber surveys, we provide the clarity you need to negotiate with confidence.
"We work for you, not the lender or the estate agent. Our independence is your greatest asset during the buying process."
