COVID - 19 UPDATE - 25th February 2021

As we begin to move out of lockdown we are resuming surveys on inhabited properties. As always our primary focus is the safety and wellbeing of our staff, customers, and the public and all of our work will be done following the strictest Covid-19 guidelines.

It still may be possible to carry out initial appraisals of client's proposals virtually online via video call and we are happy to discuss this option with anyone.

Again we welcome the support of our colleagues and customers as we work together during these challenging times. If you require our services then please do not hesitate to contact us.

As we enter lockdown number two we are continuing to work carrying out house surveys and consultations. We want to assure our customers of our continued adherence to all the latest covid rules, working to ensure both our customer's and our staff's safety.

As lockdown restrictions are starting to ease, we are continuing to offer a service to our domestic customers, such as design of extensions for new customers. Being aware that there is a risk of a second wave, this could once again prevent us from surveying in other households for a time. Due to this concern we are asking those of you who are considering having any work done to your property to contact us so that we can meet and discuss with you any concerns or ideas you have regarding the work and undertake our measured survey. The only part of our work that will be affected by a second wave would be the surveying and meeting at your home as we cannot do this during lockdown. Rest assured that if a second wave does occur, any surveys carried out prior to a lockdown can be progressed to completion. We urge you to make contact as soon as possible to avoid the risk of any unnecessary delays.
Everyone’s safety is our first concern whenever we survey your property. We come with the correct PPE and maintaining government guidelines including social distancing.

Please do get in touch if you are in need of any of our services!

We put our clients and co-worker's safety as the highest priority. We are now glad to announce that we are starting feel a sense of normality slowly coming back to us and are taking on new jobs whilst following guidelines including social distancing.

COVID – 19 UPDATE 11th May 2020

The COVID-19 virus is having an impact on RICS professionals and regulated firms whose work involves direct contact with clients, customers, and tenants, whether in an office or through visits to a property.

RICS guidance is still that surveyors should not expect to carry out non-urgent surveys in homes where people are in residence and no inspections should take place if any person in the property is showing symptoms, self-isolating or being shielded.

It may be possible to carry out some of our work online and also carry out urgent surveys on empty properties, or those where the occupants are out of the property or following guidance to stay at home and away from others.

We are still open and still available for consultation and are happy to discuss your situation and requirements and see what we can do to assist you.
