What is a surveyor?
Surveyors come in many forms and undertake a wide range of responsibilities. At their core, their job is to inspect and evaluate properties, assessing their condition with a sharp eye for detail. They carefully examine for structural concerns, hidden defects and issues that could reduce the property’s market value. Trained and certified by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), these professionals are equipped to deliver precise and reliable valuations.
Beyond inspections, surveyors also offer expert advice to help you avoid future pitfalls with your property. Whether in Ealing or elsewhere, surveyors are adept at identifying parts of a property that may need attention, especially if you’re planning to sell.
Their process is nothing if not meticulous. Once hired, they’ll generate detailed reports based on both firsthand observations and historical planning documents to give you a complete picture.

When should you hire a surveyor in Ealing?
Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply want an accurate assessment of your property, there’s no wrong time to bring in a surveyor in Ealing. Below are some of the key reasons why you should hire one though:
- Concerned about a building’s structural integrity – Before finalising a property purchase, especially one that’s older or architecturally unusual, it’s wise to consult a chartered surveyor. Many clients call us during these critical moments. Unlike estate agents, surveyors are trained to detect hard-to-spot issues, like subsidence, damp or structural flaws. Anything that could cause serious problems down the line. With their guidance, you can make an informed decision rather than relying on surface-level impressions.
- Planning an extension – If you’re extending your home, involving a surveyor is not just helpful, it’s essential. From resolving boundary disputes using their knowledge of the Party Wall Act 1996, to assessing whether your plans meet legal and structural requirements, surveyors provide key support. They’ll spot potential issues before construction begins, helping to ensure your project goes smoothly.
- Need a property valuation – We are experts in property valuations. Whether you’re buying or selling, our RICS-accredited surveyors deliver unbiased, accurate property valuations. They evaluate market trends, analyse the nearby properties, and assess their condition to give you the most precise figures possible. While others might tell you what you want to hear, we pride ourselves on giving you the honest truth.
