From North London Roots to a City-Wide Network
Founded by Mr. Peter and Mr. Barry over 40 years ago, our firm has grown from a small North London office into a 20-strong team of RICS Regulated specialists. Led by Director Justin Burns since 2000, we now operate from six offices across the capital, including our head office in Kensington.

"Our mission is to provide a modern, efficient, and client-friendly service that helps you make the best decisions regarding your property."
Your Dedicated Party Wall Specialists
One of our core strengths is navigating the complexities of the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. Whether you are the Building Owner planning an extension or an Adjoining Owner concerned about a neighbour's loft conversion, we act as your expert guides.
We handle the entire process, including:
- Reviewing architectural plans and identifying relevant owners
- Preparing and serving formal party wall notices
- Agreeing on Party Wall Awards to allow work to progress
- Preparing detailed schedules of condition to protect your property
Comprehensive RICS Surveys for Every Property
We offer a range of inspection levels to suit your specific purchase. For modern homes in good condition, our RICS Level 2 Home Survey provides a clear, reasoned decision-making tool. For older properties, houses in poor condition, or those you plan to renovate, our RICS Level 3 Home Survey (formerly a Full Structural Survey) offers a deep dive into the building's fabric and services.
