Tom Barnes Surveyors Limited

Your Foundation for Informed Decisions

Buying a home is likely the biggest financial commitment you’ll ever make. At Tom Barnes Surveyors, we believe you shouldn't have to rely on a basic mortgage valuation that only protects the lender. We provide the deep-dive analysis you need to understand exactly what you are buying, ensuring the right property is bought at the right price.

"Our mission is to provide the essential groundwork for making sound choices regarding your home."

Led by RICS-Qualified Experts

When you hire us, you aren't getting a generic report from a faceless firm. Every inspection is carried out directly by our lead surveyors, ensuring total accountability and professional integrity.

• Tom (AssocRICS, Dip R Surv): With over 20 years in the property industry, Tom is a specialist in everything from early timber frames and non-standard construction to traditional solid brick and modern cavity walls. He has even served as a regional technical surveyor, mentoring the next generation of professionals.
• Matthew (AssocRICS, SAVA Diploma): Bringing a methodical background from nine years in finance, Matthew provides a meticulous review of property risks. His reports are famous for being written in plain English and supported by clear photography.

Why We Are Different

We prioritise quality over quantity. By leveraging advanced technology, including drone photography, we can inspect areas of a property that others might miss, such as high-level roof coverings and chimney stacks.
