Since 1978, Gateley Smithers Purslow has been the UK’s 'go-to' for complex building issues. We combine surveying, engineering, and architecture to solve challenging property losses, subsidence, and liability claims for private and commercial clients nationwide.

Solving Your Most Complex Property Challenges

We don't just survey buildings; we solve problems. Since 1978, Gateley Smithers Purslow has evolved from a specialist engineering firm into a premier multi-disciplinary practice. Whether you are a homeowner facing a complex insurance claim or a commercial developer needing structural expertise, we bring decades of technical rigour to every project.

Why We Are the "Go-To" for Insurance and Subsidence

Our reputation was built on handling the tough stuff. In the 1980s, we became known as the UK’s leading subsidence experts. Today, we are trusted by major insurers and private clients alike to manage challenging building losses, including fire, flood, and liability claims. We provide independent professional expertise when you need it most, ensuring that even the most complicated liability matters are handled with precision.

A Multi-Disciplinary Team Under One Roof

We believe that the best solutions come from collaboration. By housing building surveyors, civil and structural engineers, and architects within one team, we provide a seamless service. This integrated approach allows us to handle everything from traditional engineering design and cost consultancy to modern architectural planning and planning services.

"Our goal is to be recognised as the firm for solving complex building, construction and property issues for commercial and private clients, the public sector and the insurance claims market."

Our Commitment to a Sustainable Future

We take our environmental impact seriously. As a 'Positive Planet Certified – Silver Award' organisation, we are actively working toward Carbon Zero by 2040. When you work with us, you aren't just getting technical expertise; you're partnering with a team committed to promoting sustainable construction products and processes. We train our teams to be experts in this field so we can better advise you on the future of your property.

From Rutland Roots to National Reach

While we began in Oakham, Rutland, our reach is now truly nationwide. In 2022, we joined the Gateley legal and professional services group, further strengthening our ability to provide comprehensive support to our clients across the UK. Despite our growth, we remain true to our founding values: being straightforward, honest, and fair in every instruction we take on.
