RES Property Surveyors

We are a boutique property consultancy based in London, built on the principle that property advice should be clear, exhaustive, and tailored to the individual. Unlike larger, volume-driven firms, our work is primarily recommendation-only, coming through a trusted network of solicitors and past clients who value our 360-degree vision of the property market.

Whether you are a first-time buyer navigating a Victorian terrace or a commercial investor managing a diverse portfolio, we provide the technical expertise and local knowledge required to protect your investment.

Beyond the Standard Homebuyer Report

We believe a survey should do more than just list defects; it should provide peace of mind. Our building surveys go significantly beyond the typical RICS structure. We utilise a suite of high-tech applications to see what others might miss:

• Thermal imaging photography to identify hidden heat loss and moisture.
• Pole cameras for close-up inspections of high-level roofing and guttering.
• Dew point analysis and state-of-the-art damp meters for accurate moisture diagnostics.

Every report we produce is fully dictated and accompanied by a detailed photographic schedule. Most importantly, we include a follow-up phone consultation with your surveyor to discuss the findings in plain English.

Specialist Expertise Led by Our Directors

Our firm is led by a team of RICS-accredited directors, each bringing over a decade of cross-sector experience to the table. When you hire us, you are hiring senior expertise:
