About Tate Surveying Services LTD

Surveying Made Simple for Sussex Homeowners

Buying a property is likely the biggest financial commitment you’ll ever make. At Tate Surveying Services, we believe the process should be transparent, straightforward, and entirely stress-free. Based in Hove, we are a proudly independent team of RICS-regulated surveyors serving Brighton, Hove, and the wider Sussex area.

We don’t hide behind confusing industry language or last-minute fees. Instead, we focus on delivering thorough, personable service underpinned by over 20 years of industry experience. Whether you are a first-time buyer or a seasoned investor, we provide the local knowledge and technical expertise you need to move forward with confidence.

Meet Our Expert Team

Our reputation is built on the people who visit your potential home. We are a small team with a big reputation for detail:

  • Marc Tate BSc (Hons) AssocRICS MFPWS MCIOB: Our Company Director and lead surveyor, Marc is known for his incredibly comprehensive reports and willingness to talk clients through every finding.
  • Alexandra Bassey BSc (Hons) AssocRICS P405: A specialist building surveyor bringing technical precision to every inspection.
  • Jack Kingston BSc (Hons) AssocRICS: An expert building surveyor and Registered Valuer.
  • Denise Fordham: Our dedicated Company Administrator who ensures our communication is as prompt as our surveys.

Why Our Reports Stand Out

We know that a thick stack of paper is useless if you can't understand it. That’s why our RICS Level 2 and Level 3 reports are designed for clarity. We use a traffic-light system to highlight urgent repairs versus routine maintenance, and we include costings, objective suggestions, and high-quality photographs as standard.

Specialists in Party Walls and Insurance Claims

Our expertise extends far beyond pre-purchase surveys. We are the go-to specialists for Party Wall Awards, providing the guidance and legal permissions required for work on shared boundaries.

We also offer a niche service in Building Insurance Claims Assistance and Loss Adjuster Support. If your property has suffered damage, we deal directly with insurance companies and contractors to manage your reinstatement requirements, taking the weight off your shoulders during a difficult time.

"We pride ourselves on what our clients say when we’re not in the room. Our goal is to be the most thorough, approachable, and professional surveyors in the South East."
