Leo Horsfield Surveying

More Than Just a Survey: The Leo Horsfield Difference

Since 2006, we have operated as an independent, family-run practice of Chartered Surveyors and Structural Engineers. We believe that property owners deserve more than a "tick-box" exercise. By combining surveying expertise with deep structural engineering knowledge, we provide a level of technical insight that standard firms simply cannot match.

Whether you are buying a first home, managing a commercial portfolio, or renovating a heritage asset, our in-house team handles every detail. We never subcontract our work; when you hire us, you get our dedicated experts and the peace of mind that comes with RICS regulation.

Specialists in Historic and Listed Properties

We have a particular passion for the UK’s architectural heritage. Led by Director Simon Horsfield, who specialises in defects analysis for unique and historical buildings, we help clients navigate the complexities of listed property ownership. We understand the nuances of traditional construction and provide the detailed, sympathetic advice required to protect these assets.

Expert Structural Engineering & Design

Unlike many surveying firms, we are also consulting structural engineers. This means we don't just identify a crack; we understand the physics behind it and can design the solution.

• Structural Inspections: From minor defects to major subsidence issues, we provide reports for mortgage and insurance requirements.
• Design & Alterations: Planning a loft conversion or extension? We provide the calculations and design work to make it happen.
• Party Wall Matters: We provide expert advice for both building owners and adjoining owners under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996.
