Over Four Decades of Professional Integrity
Since 1997, MJD Surveying Ltd has been a trusted name for ecclesiastical property care. Our practice is led by Mike Downing FRICS IRRV (Hons), a Chartered Surveyor with more than 45 years of experience in the South East property market.
We understand that historic and religious buildings require a sensitive, expert touch. We have dedicated our practice to the preservation and maintenance of these vital community assets, ensuring they remain safe and functional for the congregations they serve.
Specialists in Quinquennial Inspections
Our core specialism lies in the detailed quinquennial reporting required for church buildings. We provide comprehensive, authoritative assessments that ensure the longevity of unique structures. We regularly work with:
- Churches and Chapels: Detailed structural and condition assessments.
- Church Halls: Ensuring community spaces meet safety and maintenance standards.
- Manses and Church Housing: Specialist surveys for residential properties tied to the ministry.
- Associated Buildings: Comprehensive reporting for any structure within an ecclesiastical estate.
"Our mission is to provide clear, expert guidance to help church wardens and property committees manage their buildings with confidence and foresight."
Technical Diagnostics & Defect Investigations
Beyond routine inspections, we are frequently called upon to investigate specific building failures. Whether it is damp penetration, structural movement, or material decay, our diagnostic reports provide the technical clarity needed to plan effective repairs. We don't just find the problem; we help you understand the cause and the solution.
