About Shire Surveyors Ltd

Making Your Move Based on Facts, Not Emotions

It’s a well-known cliché that buyers often spend more time researching a new washing machine than they do the house they are about to buy. We are here to change that. At Shire Surveyors, our mission is to provide you with clear, comprehensive, and jargon-free advice that gives you the confidence to make a sound investment.

As an independent, owner-managed firm, our reputation is our most valuable asset. We don't just tick boxes; we provide a personal service that helps you understand the true condition of your potential new home without the technical headache.

Why Homeowners Across the East Midlands Trust Us

We operate from our base in Market Harborough, covering Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, and Rutland. Whether you are buying a modern townhouse in Leicester or a period cottage in Oakham, we have the local knowledge to spot the specific risks associated with properties in our region.

Expert Guidance from Sam, Charlotte, and the Team

We pride ourselves on being approachable and highly efficient. You aren't just a file number to us; our administration team, led by Charlotte, ensures the process is seamless from the first quote to the final report.

Our surveyors, including Sam McDonald, are known for their thoroughness. We understand that waiting for results is the most stressful part of a house purchase, which is why we aim to deliver reports swiftly—often the very next day. We are always happy to discuss our findings over the phone to give you immediate peace of mind.

"Our objective is to provide high-quality, fully reasoned advice to help you make a sound investment based on facts, not emotions."

From RICS Level 3 Surveys to Specialist Valuations

Choosing the right survey depends on your attitude toward risk and the property's age. We would be very happy to use our experience to guide you to the most appropriate level of survey for your specific circumstances. Our expertise includes:

  • RICS Level 2 & 3 Surveys: Detailed inspections for modern and older traditionally built homes.
  • Registered Valuations: Professional assessments for probate, matrimonial, taxation, and Help to Buy.
  • Boundary & Land Services: Resolving disputes and creating Land Registry compliant plans for legal conveyancers.
  • Energy Performance: Providing EPCs to ensure your home meets modern standards.

We maintain long-standing relationships with accountants and lawyers, ensuring our valuation advice is robust enough for official purposes while remaining easy for you to understand.
