At JRB Chartered Surveyors, we believe your home purchase deserves expert eyes. That’s why our Directors personally handle every survey. With 40+ years of North East experience and a 'one survey per day' limit, we deliver the meticulous detail you need for total peace of mind.
Why Your North East Move is Safer with Us
Buying a property is likely the most significant investment you’ll ever make. We don't believe that's a process that should be rushed or handed off to a junior. At JRB Chartered Surveyors, we provide a director-led service that combines technical building engineering expertise with decades of local market knowledge.

The Director-Led Difference
We are different because we don't use sub-contractors or trainee surveyors. When you hire us, you get James Burke or Andrew Bennett—both fully qualified Chartered Surveyors and Chartered Building Engineers.
We bring a level of diligence and meticulousness that only comes from being business owners who take genuine pride in every report we sign. We understand the local landscape because we live and work here.
Quality Over Quantity: Our One-Survey-Per-Day Rule
Most large firms push their surveyors to complete multiple inspections a day. We refuse to do that.
- Focused Attention: We only carry out one survey per surveyor per day.
- Thorough Inspections: This gives us the time to look into every nook and cranny without watching the clock.
- Rapid Reporting: Because we focus on one client at a time, we typically issue our comprehensive RICS-compliant reports within 2 working days of the inspection.
Meet the Experts Protecting Your Investment
Our firm was established in 2008 by James Burke, who started his career at Savills and has advised both private and commercial clients for over 25 years. James is a Fellow of the Independent Surveyors and Valuers Association (ISVA) and a Chartered Building Engineer.
Andrew Bennett joined the leadership team to bring his extensive background in building consultancy and large-scale maintenance projects. Having worked for international property consultancies, Andrew specialises in identifying the structural "red flags" that could save you thousands in future repair costs.
