Trusted Property Services in London
At Able Surveyors, we are proud to provide a comprehensive range of property services to assist in the purchase and maintenance of all kinds of buildings across the city. RICS surveys are the most popular choice for assessing a building’s condition, although Specific Defect Reports and Damp Reports may be more effective when a known issue requires investigation. All of our surveyors have extensive experience carrying out surveys in London and can offer targeted insight that allows you to make informed decisions and plans about a particular building.
We also offer a number of commercially-focused services, tailored to the unique and often complex needs of landlords in London. Stock Condition Surveys are intended to assist in drawing up maintenance budgets and schedules across an entire portfolio, while our cost management and contract administration services benefit landlords that are in the process of expanding their collection of properties and wish to maximise profits from the buildings that they currently own.
Able Surveyors operates all across London and can attend property in any borough or zone, from the City of London itself, through to the outer boroughs including Tower Hamlets. Some of the areas we are frequently asked to attend are listed below, but are services are not limited to these areas. You can see our full list of areas we service on Areas We Cover.
Where can I find surveyors near me?
Belgravia
Belgravia is a primarily residential area comprising of Regency-era terraces and townhouses. There are three main squares in the Belgravia district; Belgrave Square, Eaton Square and Chester Square. Built between 1820 and 1850, these homes have many design quirks that can be missed by untrained eyes.
Camden
Camden is a popular district of northwest London and is home to one of the world’s most famous markets. We provide surveying services throughout the area, including Belsize Park, Kilburn, Highgate and more.
Islington
Islington has seen major regeneration in the past few years, including the Packington Estate redevelopment, which has transformed this quintessential London Borough into a thriving new housing and business area.
Knightsbridge
Knightsbridge is London’s most exclusive shopping district, featuring exclusive stores, banks, beauty salons, clubs and restaurants. Residences here are among some of the highest-valued property in the world including Montpelier Square and One Hyde Park. Our surveyors understand the demands of high-end clientele, and can ensure that properties meet exacting standards.
Sloane Square
Sloane Square marks the boundaries of Knightsbridge, Belgravia and Chelsea. The square – and the surrounding area – is similar to its neighbours; made-up of luxury apartments, townhouses and retail outlets. An assortment of architecture means that properties in this area require specialist surveyor attention to ensure that their unique features are taken into account.
Stratford
While historically, Stratford has had a reputation for being one of the lesser desirable residential locations in London, the 2012 London Olympics and Olympics-driven regeneration has boosted Stratford’s image, and put this part of East London on the map as a great place to live and work.
Vauxhall Bridge
Vauxhall Bridge spans the Thames between Pimlico and Vauxhall. Here, we cater mostly to commercial clients looking for prime business real estate. We listen to what you’re looking for and provide reports that can help you choose the best new premises for your operations.
Paddington
Paddington is a hub of activity; home to residents, businesses, educational buildings and transport centres. The buzzing atmosphere and high footfall have their own effect on property values and everyday wear and tear on buildings, so a professional opinion before investing can be helpful. Our team works in and around Paddington, including the areas of Westbourne Green, Bayswater and St George’s Fields.
Notting Hill
Notting Hill is a desirable area in West London, known for pretty townhouses and eclectic shops. The variety of property means that an experienced surveyor may be able to carry out a more effective assessment than a surveyor that is unfamiliar with the area.
