There’s no substitute for the advice that can be provided by an experienced Chartered Surveyor when it comes to buying a property.
Our team of surveyors are on hand to provide whichever type of survey best suits your needs, whether that be a mid-range Level 2 Survey or a Level 3 which not only highlights all significant and costly defects but goes on to provide advice on repair methods and the future maintenance of your Dartford property. Additional services can be included such as a valuation, a reinstatement cost assessment, repair costings or a feasibility report if you are planning to extend.
Below you will find links to the hundreds of positive reviews we’ve received from buyers of properties in and around Dartford and, for additional peace of mind, the company is regulated by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).

Learn more about the benefits of commissioning a detailed survey report and how our team of experienced surveyors can provide you with all the information you need to make an informed decision about whether to proceed.
The Level 2 (Homebuyer) Report is designed to provide buyers with concise information about the condition of a property. This is achieved by giving elements a Condition Rating based on the traffic light system and summarising them at the front of the report.
The Level 3 (Building Survey) is the most detailed of the RICS Home Survey Reports and is suitable for all residential properties. The report can be customised and enhanced with the addition of a valuation, feasibility study or ballpark repair costs.
If there's an issue with a property that you already own which requires investigation, our Building Surveyors can provide a Specific Defect Report. The report will provide an expert opinion on the cause and useful guidance on the next steps.

Dartford is a historic and evolving town in north-west Kent, sitting on the south bank of the River Thames around 18 miles east of central London. The postcodes DA1, DA2, DA3 and DA4 encompass the town centre and surrounding neighbourhoods, including Wilmington, Bean, Darenth and parts of Longfield, offering a blend of urban living, residential suburbs and accessible countryside. Dartford has roots as a Roman settlement and later a medieval market town, growing through industrial eras before becoming a key commuter hub for Greater London.
The town centre provides a range of shopping, dining and community amenities, while attractions such as Central Park and Darenth Country Park offer green space and leisure opportunities close to home. Cultural venues like The Orchard Theatre and The Mick Jagger Centre — a performing arts venue named for the Rolling Stones singer who was born in Dartford — reflect the area’s creative community and lively arts scene.
Transport links are strong, with regular rail services into London and connections across Kent, and the nearby Dartford Crossing providing an important road link over the Thames. Dartford’s mix of history, culture and connectivity makes it a distinctive town with appeal for residents and visitors alike.
