Chartered Surveyors Across South West England

The South West includes the Georgian and Victorian stock of Bristol, Bath and Cheltenham, stone-built property across Gloucestershire, Somerset and Dorset, coastal housing throughout Devon, and market towns such as Barnstaple and Yeovil.

Cob, stone, lime render and thatch appear far more often here than elsewhere, and each behaves differently from modern construction. So do the region's steeply terraced city streets, where retaining structures, lightwells and lower ground floors are frequently the source of both damp and movement questions.

We inspect with those construction types in mind and avoid the blanket recommendations that so often lead owners of older buildings into unnecessary and damaging work.
