Davis Blackburn Ltd

Over 45 Years of Surveying Excellence in the South West

Established in 1977, we are one of the oldest RICS Chartered Building Surveying and ABE Architectural firms in the region. While we take pride in our heritage, we remain a progressive practice, combining decades of local knowledge with modern technical skills to protect your property investments.

As an independent private practice, we have spent nearly half a century building deep-rooted bonds with the communities we serve. We don't just provide reports; we provide peace of mind through a friendly, personal service that is tailored to your specific needs.

A Unique Blend of Surveying and Architectural Design

What sets us apart is our dual expertise. We aren't just surveyors who identify defects; we are architectural designers who can help you envision and execute the solution. Whether you are buying a new home, managing a commercial dilapidation, or planning a major refurbishment, our team provides a seamless transition from initial inspection to final construction plans.

"Our technical skills in both Building Surveying and Architectural Design ensure a service that is informed, professional, and directed towards meeting the precise needs of each client."
