Specialists in Listed Buildings and Heritage Assets

If you are falling in love with a piece of history, you need a team that speaks its language. We have the specialist knowledge required to extend standard RICS Building Surveys to cover Grade II and Grade II Listed Buildings*.

Our expertise goes beyond the survey. We regularly handle Listed Building Consent applications, ensuring that any proposed changes respect the heritage of the structure while meeting modern living standards. Whether it is a farm, an equestrian building, or a historic townhouse, we understand the fabric of the West Country.

Architectural Vision Meets Technical Precision

What sets us apart is our dual-discipline approach. While many firms stop at the survey, we offer a complete in-house architectural design and planning service. This means we can identify a defect during a survey and immediately advise on the design possibilities for a future extension or renovation.

  • Planning & Design: We assess your existing building and create bespoke designs for extensions or alterations.
  • Technical Drawings: We produce full Building Regulation drawings to get your project off the ground.
  • Rural Expertise: We are specialists in the conversion of barns and the survey of complex rural estates.

Navigating the Complexities of Property Ownership

We are here to protect your interests at every stage of the property lifecycle. As Party Wall experts, we guide you through the legalities of the Party Wall Etc Act 1996, managing agreements with neighbours so your project can proceed without delay.

"Your home will be the most valuable asset you ever acquire. We ensure you are fully aware of its condition and its potential before you exchange."

Whether you need a rapid Home Buyers Report for a conventional property or a deep-dive Building Survey on a complex waterfront estate, we deliver clarity, speed, and professional integrit
