West One

Your Eyes and Ears in Property Ownership

At West One, we believe property advice should be straightforward, detailed, and entirely independent. As Chartered Building Surveyors, we don’t just look at buildings; we understand how they fail and, more importantly, how to fix them. Whether you are purchasing a new home or managing a commercial portfolio, we act as your dedicated advocates.

Our philosophy is simple: to offer no-nonsense professional advice to ensure the best possible outcome for our clients. We are a friendly, approachable team that prioritises reliability and dedication, whether we are working for an individual homeowner or a national organisation.

Specialists in Insurance Reinstatement & Defect Diagnosis

We have carved out a niche as experts in building failures. If your property is suffering from movement, damp, or condensation, we provide the technical diagnosis needed to resolve the issue for good.

Our team is particularly renowned for handling insurance claims, acting specifically for you—the home or business owner. Our experience in this field is vast and varied:

• Major Loss Fires: Handling claims up to £5.0m for hotels and industrial units.
• Escape of Water: Managing complex residential claims from £30,000 upwards.
• Advanced Tech: We were among the first in the UK to utilise 3D scanning technology for insurance claims, ensuring unparalleled accuracy in our reporting.

From 14th-Century Heritage to Modern Construction

Our expertise spans the entire timeline of British architecture. We are as comfortable navigating the complexities of a 14th-century medieval property as we are inspecting a building still under construction. This breadth of knowledge allows us to spot risks that others might miss.

Why Clients Trust the West One Team

We aren't a faceless consultancy. We are a knowledgeable and genuinely friendly group who believe in director-level involvement for every single instruction. When you hire us, you get our best people.

"Independence is at our core. Our independence enables us to provide the best possible advice and services for our clients."

Whether it’s a terminal dilapidations claim for a landlord, a party wall dispute, or a comprehensive building survey for a new purchase, we bring a dedication to detail that is second to none. We are independent, reliable, and focused entirely on your interests.
