Were homebuyers really getting value from their surveyor?
Too many large intermediaries draft in fixed-time contract surveyors to do the work. Report delivered, they become uncontactable.
Homebuyers could be left with more questions than answers.
And so, I vowed to create a different type of business – the type you want on your side when you’re making such a massive decision.

No questions – just answers that make sense about us
Formed in 2011, Flettons is a family-owned firm of property surveyors. Over the years, our in-house RICS surveyors have inspected more than £4 billion worth of assets, including every age of property, throughout London and the South East.
- We know about damp, subsidence, and timber defects
- We know about modern construction methods
- We know about local conditions that could impact value
Our personal approach answers ALL your questions. You can even chat with your surveyor once you’ve read your report.
Importantly, you’ll have a clear picture to progress with your purchase, knowing you’re making correct decisions.
Not only do we offer you three levels of RICS survey reports to choose from you can also opt for:
- Aerial photos to assess the roof in detail
- A summary of costs to fuel your negotiations
- An insurance reinstatement cost
No more questions and worries – just clear answers in plain English. Because our RICS surveyors know how important this is to you.
Buy to let investor?
When you’re buying an investment property, your focus is slightly different to a homeowner.
You might not have seen the building in person, and you must pay close attention to the Landlord and Tenant Act. Not to mention the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS).
Our RICS property surveys for BTL investors deliver the focus you need.
- We’ll spot legal hazards such as condensation or falls from height, impact and collision
- We’ll consider additional costs to your investment – such as rewiring or a new boiler
- We’ll assess the local environment with your property value in mind
You want a safe and sound investment. We know what that looks like.
