Our Residential and Commercial Building Surveyors

Our Independent Residential and Commercial Building Surveyors are all part of the RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) and have over the years surveyed many different types of property including flats, houses, pubs, shops, offices, warehouses and even churches! If you are purchasing a property in Brent we definitely recommend you have a building survey carried out on it. Whilst carrying out surveys we have uncovered many problems which if left undiscovered would have eventually cost our clients a small fortune.

 

What's included in our Property Surveys

Our Property Surveys are tailored to you specifically. We like to meet you at the property during the survey to get an understanding of your property needs. We write our reports in a non-jargon way using plain English and include sketches and photos to highlight certain areas to you.
We use the best surveying equipment available and all photos are taken using a super optical camera. Both before and after the survey we are more than happy to chat to you by telephone to discuss any issues you may have.
