13 Richmond Drive, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, NG3 5EL, Nottingham
Led by Richard Cruise MRICS, we are independent East Midlands specialists with 30 years of experience. Having surveyed over 20,000 properties—from city apartments to country mansions—we provide the local knowledge and technical expertise you need to buy with total confidence.
We believe that every property purchase deserves a thorough 'health check'. At Richard Cruise Ltd, we bring three decades of local expertise to help you navigate the East Midlands property market safely and avoid costly surprises.
30 Years and 20,000 Properties Surveyed
Our founder, Richard Cruise MRICS, has spent his career inspecting everything from compact city centre apartments to sprawling country mansions. This depth of experience means there is very little we haven't seen before.
Whether it is a hidden damp issue in a Victorian terrace or a structural concern in a modern build, we provide the clarity you need to negotiate with confidence. We are independent, meaning we work solely for you—not the lender or the estate agent.
Tailored Residential Surveys for Your Peace of Mind
We specialise in residential property, offering two main levels of inspection to suit your specific needs:
- Homebuyer Survey & Valuation: Ideal for conventional homes built in the last 150 years. We focus on urgent matters, damp testing, and timber damage, providing an RICS-standard report that includes a market valuation.
- Building Surveys: A more comprehensive 'deep dive' into the property's fabric, essential for older buildings, renovations, or properties where you plan major alterations.
Expert Valuations for Life’s Transitions
Beyond the buying process, we provide formal written valuations for a variety of legal and financial requirements. We understand that these reports are often needed during sensitive times, such as matrimonial proceedings or handling an estate, and we pride ourselves on our professional, discreet approach.

Why Homeowners in Nottingham Trust Us
A survey is more than just a report; it is a tool for negotiation. We have helped thousands of clients save money by identifying defects that allow for price adjustments before contracts are signed.
"A survey is like a health check for a property. It highlights serious problems which can often lead to a re-negotiation of the sale price, reflecting the cost of necessary repairs."
We cover the entirety of the East Midlands, providing a fast, reliable, and highly personal service that puts your interests first.
