We aren't just surveyors; we are guardians of the built environment.

Whether you are a homeowner of a listed cottage, a commercial developer, or a rural estate manager, we offer the technical precision and local insight you need to protect your investment.
Specialists in Historic Buildings and Conservation
Led by our Managing Director, Richard Maddison, who is RICS-accredited in Building Conservation and a member of the IHBC, we have a deep-seated passion for heritage. We have advised on everything from high-street shops to Grade I listed castles and stately homes.
Our work ensures that grant-funded restorations—supported by bodies like English Heritage and Natural England—are carried out sympathetically. We don't just look at the bricks and mortar; we look at the history and the future of the building.
Award-Winning Rural and Commercial Expertise
We are proud of our track record in delivering high-impact projects. Our work on the Regional Agricultural Centre in Harrogate won RICS Project of the Year (Yorkshire and Humber) and received a national commendation for sustainability.
Karen Maddison brings over 21 years of experience to our team, including a background as an Estates Manager. She leads our work in:
- Planning Guidance: Successfully navigating S106 agreements and decision notices.
- Property Management: Overseeing diverse portfolios from village hall residential apartments to commercial hubs.
- Grant Writing: Securing vital funding for sports and community development projects.
