Services
Building Surveys
Our building surveys provide thorough inspections of residential and commercial properties, identifying structural defects and maintenance needs. Tailored reports help clients make informed decisions about purchases or renovations. Surveys are conducted by RICS-accredited surveyors with expertise in pre-1945 and modern construction.
Architectural Design
We offer innovative architectural design for new builds, extensions, and renovations. Our services include planning applications, building regulations compliance, and contract administration. With over 20 years of experience, our team ensures designs balance aesthetics, functionality, and regulatory standards.
Valuations
RICS-registered valuers assess property market values and insurance reinstatement costs. Valuations consider local market trends, property features, and comparable sales. Reports are used for mortgage purposes, tax planning, and insurance coverage.
Party Wall Services
We provide party wall advice and dispute resolution in line with the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. Services include serving notices, preparing schedules of condition, and acting as surveyor to resolve conflicts between adjoining owners.
Schedules of Dilapidations
SCOTT-format schedules outline repair obligations for tenants and landlords at lease end. Our surveyors assess defects against lease terms and negotiate claims, ensuring compliance with the Dilapidations Protocol for fair outcomes.
