Since 1979, Marshalls has provided common-sense property advice across Oxfordshire and Berkshire. As independent RICS Registered Valuers, we specialise in plain-English survey reports and expert valuations for everything from studio flats to country manor houses.
We’ve been a fixture of the local property landscape since 1979. Originally established in Abingdon, we have grown into a leading independent practice of Chartered Surveyors and RICS Registered Valuers with dedicated offices in Oxford and Thatcham.
Our philosophy is simple: we provide high-quality, professional advice that helps you make informed decisions. Whether you are a first-time buyer stepping onto the ladder or an investor managing a portfolio, we bring over four decades of local knowledge to every instruction.
Decades of Expertise Across the Thames Valley and The Cotswolds
We don't just work in these areas; we live here and know the local building stock inside out. From the historic colleges of Oxford to the rural charm of The Cotswolds, our surveyors are routinely on the ground in:
- Oxfordshire: Oxford, Witney, Abingdon, Didcot, Bicester, and Wantage.
- Berkshire: Thatcham, Newbury, Hungerford, and Lambourn.

Report Style
Plain English & Common Sense
Jargon-Free Reports You Can Actually Use
By their nature, property surveys can often feel negative or overly technical. We do things differently. Our Level 2 and Level 3 Survey Reports are written in plain English, providing clear, common-sense guidance on the condition of your potential home.
We believe a surveyor should be a help, not a hindrance. If we find an issue—whether it's damp, timber defects, or structural concerns—we explain it clearly and offer practical advice on the next steps.
RICS Red Book Valuations for Every Purpose
As RICS Registered Valuers, we provide formal 'Red Book' valuations that meet the highest professional standards. We are highly experienced in the local market, ensuring your valuation is accurate and robust. We specialise in:
- Affordable Housing: Shared Ownership and Help to Buy (Target HCA) valuations.
- Taxation: Valuations for Inheritance Tax (Probate) and Capital Gains Tax.
- Specialist Requirements: Charities Act valuations for property purchase or disposal.
Navigating the Party Wall Act
If you are planning an extension or internal structural alterations, or if your neighbour has served notice on you, our specialist surveyors are here to help. We act for both building owners and adjoining owners to ensure the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 is followed correctly, protecting your interests and your property.
"Whether you’re buying a studio flat or a manor house, we have the local expertise and professional standing to ensure your investment is sound."
