Experienced & independent surveys and valuations
I am a RICS accredited surveyor and valuer with over 20 years of experience within the property industry. My expertise is built on extensive practical experience within the sector, complemented by formal qualifications and continued professional development. Through my practical foundation of working directly within the construction industry on a diverse range of property types and ages, I have gained a unique and in depth understanding of building pathology – the science of identifying building defects, understanding their causes and advising on effective solutions. This practical foundation coupled with my formal qualifications allow me to assess properties with a level of insight which goes beyond surface level inspections, ensuring my clients receive thorough, accurate and reliable advice.

RICS Level 3 Survey (Building survey)
The RICS Level 3 Survey, also known as a Building Survey, is the most detailed and comprehensive home survey available. This survey is ideal for older properties, listed buildings, or homes that have been significantly renovated or appear to be in poor condition. It provides a full breakdown of the property’s structure and condition.

Valuation
A RICS valuation is a professional, impartial assessment of a property's market value, conducted by a qualified RICS registered valuer. It is commonly used for purposes such as buying, selling, remortgaging, probate, Help to Buy schemes, shared ownership, and other legal or financial matters.
Unlike a survey, which examines the condition of the property, a valuation focuses solely on establishing its accurate worth in the current market.

Drone Survey
As part of our residential surveying services, we offer high-quality drone surveys to provide a comprehensive aerial assessment of your property. Using advanced drone technology, we capture high-resolution imagery and video of the entire site—including hard-to-reach areas like roofs, chimneys, and upper elevations—without the need for ladders, scaffolding, or invasive access. This service is ideal for identifying structural issues, roof and chimney defects, blocked gutters, and other concerns that may not be visible from the ground. It is a fast, safe, and cost-effective way to gain a complete visual overview of the property.
