Surveys and valuations
We’re not a nationwide call centre. We’re local, independent, and committed to our clients. Being based in Gloucestershire means we know the architecture, building styles, and potential pitfalls unique to the area, from Cotswold stone cottages to Regency terraces and modern new-builds.
As fully qualified RICS building surveyors, we combine technical expertise with a friendly, approachable service. Our surveys are thorough, easy to understand, and tailored to your specific needs.
Our Level 2 survey (also known as a Level 2 home buyers survey) is designed for conventional, modern properties in reasonable condition.
It provides a clear overview of the property’s condition, highlights urgent issues, and gives straightforward advice, all presented in an easy-to-follow format. Perfect if you want peace of mind without wading through unnecessary technical detail.
Ideal for:
Modern houses, flats, and bungalows
Properties are generally in good repair
Buyers who want reassurance before the exchange
A Level 3 building survey (sometimes called a full structural survey) is the most comprehensive home survey we provide. If you’re buying an older, unusual, or significantly altered property, this survey will give you a detailed understanding of its construction, condition, and any required repairs.
Our RICS level 3 survey includes an in-depth report of the building’s structure, materials, and potential defects, with practical recommendations to help you make informed decisions.
Ideal for:
Listed and historic buildings
Properties needing renovation
Homes with complex structures or unusual materials
Historic homes have unique charm and unique challenges. As experienced listed building surveyors in Gloucestershire, we understand the intricacies of heritage construction and the care required for conservation work.
We can help you navigate the responsibilities of owning a listed property, identify defects specific to period buildings, and offer advice on sympathetic repairs that preserve the building’s character while keeping it safe and sound.
