Jon Stone Surveyors Ltd

We believe that property advice should be clear, practical, and personal. As an independent firm led by a Fellow of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (FRICS), we bring over 35 years of experience in the South West property market to every instruction.

Thirty-Five Years of South West Property Expertise

Based in Exmouth and serving clients across Exeter, Woodbury, and the wider region, we have built our reputation on a 'no-nonsense' approach. Because we are independent, we aren't tied to lenders or large corporations; our only priority is providing you with the honest facts you need to make an informed decision.

More Than Just a Survey: Detailed Insights & Budget Costs

When you commission a Building Survey from us, you get more than just a report. We spend the time necessary—often three hours or more—to uncover the issues that superficial mortgage valuations miss.

• Comprehensive Reporting: We provide clear, jargon-free analysis of age, construction, and condition.
• Visual Evidence: Every report is supported by extensive photographs to illustrate our findings.
• Practical Planning: We include budget costs for necessary repairs and ongoing maintenance advice, helping you negotiate or plan your finances.

Specialist Dilapidations & Commercial Advice

For over 15 years, we have specialised in the complex area of dilapidations law. Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, we provide expert guidance on repairs, reinstatement, and statutory compliance.

We don't just identify issues; we prepare formal schedules, cost every item, and handle the negotiations to settle claims successfully. Our commercial expertise also extends to lease renewals and rent reviews for retail and leisure properties.

"Our philosophy is to provide straightforward, no-nonsense advice for a reasonable fee and within an agreed timeframe."

Tailored Valuations & Development Guidance

We provide RICS-compliant valuations for a wide range of sensitive and professional requirements. From probate and inheritance tax to divorce settlements and SIPP/SSAS pension fund purchases, our valuations are robust and respected.

We also support local developers and investors with general guidance on the development process, ensuring projects start on the right footing.
