We are a boutique London consultancy of RICS Chartered Surveyors. From high-tech building surveys to expert lease enfranchisement and party wall advice, we provide clear, jargon-free guidance backed by directors with decades of experience at top-tier international firms.
We are a boutique property consultancy based in London, dedicated to providing a more detailed, tech-driven approach to surveying. Whether you are a first-time buyer, a commercial landlord, or a leaseholder looking to extend your term, we offer the high-level expertise of a major firm with the personal, tailored service of a specialist practice.
Our team is comprised of RICS-accredited surveyors and valuers who bring over a decade of national, cross-sector experience to every instruction. We don't just provide a report; we provide a 360-degree vision of your property assets.
Beyond the Standard: High-Tech Building Surveys
We believe a survey should do more than just tick boxes. Our building surveys in London and the South East go significantly beyond the typical RICS Homebuyer structure. We use a suite of high-tech applications to identify undetected defects that others might miss:
- Thermal Imaging Photography: To detect hidden heat loss and moisture.
- Pole Cameras: For close-up inspections of high-level roofs and gutters.
- Dew Point Analysis & Damp Meters: For scientific assessment of moisture issues.
Every report we produce is fully dictated and includes photographic schedules. Most importantly, we arrange a phone consultation with you after every survey to discuss the findings in plain English.
Specialist Leasehold & Enfranchisement Expertise
Led by Director David P Nesbit MRICS, an ALEP-affiliated specialist, we are a leading choice for lease extensions and freehold enfranchisement. David brings extensive tribunal experience and a background in professional advisory for firms like Savills and Cushman & Wakefield. Much of our work in this area comes via recommendation-only from solicitors, a testament to our reputation for accuracy and results.
Navigating Party Wall & Neighbourly Matters
Construction in London often requires delicate negotiations with neighbours. Marc Capillaire, a member of the prestigious Pyramus and Thisbe Club and the Faculty of Party Wall Surveyors, leads our neighbourly matters team. We act for both building owners and adjoining owners, ensuring that your project moves forward legally and smoothly.
Commercial, Public Sector & Investment Management
Our expertise extends deep into the commercial sector. Paul Tarrant MRICS and Richard Summers MRICS lead our commercial valuation and agency instructions. We provide specialist advice for:
- Public Sector: Valuations for social housing, registered providers, and schools.
- Commercial Landlords: Lease advisory, dilapidations, and rent reviews.
- Investors: Strategic investment management and loan security valuations.
