The Advantage of an "Architect’s Eye"
What sets us apart is our dual expertise. David Edwards holds a Diploma in Architecture and was appointed to the Panel of Hereford Diocesan Architects in 1992. This architectural background means we don't just see a crack or a damp patch; we understand the structural evolution of the building.
We have a particular competence in older and listed buildings. We understand the unique breathability of traditional materials and the specific challenges faced by heritage assets in the Three Counties.
Why Local Knowledge is Your Best Asset
Because David was born locally and has worked in this region his entire life, we provide insights that national firms simply cannot. When we survey a property, we are already thinking about:
- Local Soil Conditions: Understanding how regional ground types affect foundations.
- Flood Risk Areas: Real-world knowledge of local watercourses and drainage.
- Planning & Development: A well-informed perspective on local planning history and potential issues.
Comprehensive Surveys for Every Era
While we love historic architecture, we are equally rigorous with modern stock. We often find that buildings from the 1960s and 1970s can be seriously defective due to the construction standards of that era.
- Full Building Surveys: Our most popular service, covering everything from roof claddings and chimneys to drainage and internal services.
- Home Buyer Reports: A concise, professional look at properties built since the 1930s.
- Defect Analysis: Specific reports for when you notice sinking floors, leaking conservatories, or mysterious wall cracks.
A Personal, Supportive Service
We don't just send a report and disappear. We encourage you to email us your specific concerns before the survey so we can investigate them specifically. After you receive your report, David is available to act as a sounding board, explaining technical details and helping you decide if a property is a sound investment or a potential "money pit."
