Visiting our offices
We kindly ask that if you wish to speak with a surveyor, please telephone the office on 01634 331133 to make an appointment in advance.  We cannot guarantee that a surveyor or the individual you wish to speak with will be in the office if you come in without pre-arranging.  

 

Electrical inspections
Due to third party contractor charges increasing, we have had to increase our fees for the checking of electrical installations.  From Saturday 1st February 2025 the new charge for submitting an application for checking electrical works will be £400.00 plus VAT and to regularise unauthorised works £600.00.
