Why Homeowners Trust Our Residential Surveys
Buying a property is likely the biggest investment you will ever make. We specialise in RICS Level 3 Building Surveys, particularly for older period homes and high-value properties where a standard check isn't enough.
Our approach is thorough and modern. We use in-house aerial drone surveys to inspect roofs and hard-to-reach areas, ensuring no stone is left unturned. Following our inspection, we offer a direct call to discuss initial findings, followed by a detailed report within five working days featuring our clear 'Traffic Light' rating system for defects.
Specialists in Listed Buildings and Conservation
If you are acquiring a Listed Building, you need a surveyor who understands traditional construction and heritage requirements. Our team, led by Ben Salvage (Chartered Building Surveyor and Engineer), has over a decade of experience in heritage assets and damp diagnosis. We help you understand your liabilities and the specific nuances of maintaining a historic property.
Commercial Due Diligence and Valuation
For our commercial clients, we provide robust Technical Due Diligence for freehold and leasehold acquisitions across the UK. We review everything from fabric condition and M&E documentation to statutory obligations, ensuring you have a full picture of your financial liability before you commit.
On the valuation side, Simon Ly (Registered Valuer) brings over 10 years of experience to the table. We provide RICS Red Book valuations for secured lending, probate, Capital Gains Tax, and matrimonial proceedings, alongside specialist services like Leasehold Enfranchisement.
Advanced Measurement and Neighbourly Matters
We stay at the forefront of the industry by utilizing 3D Laser Scanning (Point Cloud) and 3D modelling for precise measured building surveys. This technical edge extends to our specialist consultancy in Right to Light and Daylight & Sunlight assessments, where we provide expert witness services for tribunals and disputes.
