Propvisory

Expert Guidance from Lancashire’s Only Approved ‘Third Surveyor’

When you hire Propvisory, you aren't just getting a report; you are gaining access to a level of expertise that defines the industry standard. Founded in 2020 by Vince Rimmer, our practice is built on a foundation of elite credentials and a lifetime spent in the construction industry.

As a Fellow of the Faculty of Party Wall Surveyors and the only approved ‘Third Surveyor’ in Lancashire, Vince leads a team that specialises in resolving the most complex property disputes and technical failures. Whether you are a homeowner concerned about a structural crack or a developer navigating the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, we provide the clarity and authority you need.

A Lifetime in the Trades, A Career in Excellence

Our approach is different because our roots are different. Vince Rimmer grew up in a family of tradespeople, spending school holidays installing suspended ceilings and assisting with plumbing. This hands-on heritage, combined with a BSc (Hons) in Building Surveying and status as a Chartered Building Engineer, means we understand buildings from the bricks up, not just from a textbook.

"We believe property advice should be as practical as it is professional. We bridge the gap between complex RICS regulations and the real-world realities of construction."

Why We Are the Professionals’ Professionals

We don't just practice surveying; we help set the standards for the next generation. As an RICS APC Assessor, Vince Rimmer personally examines candidates to ensure they meet the stringent criteria required to become Chartered. When you choose us, you are choosing the same experts who qualify the rest of the industry.
