Which survey suits Gloucester
ABOUT THIS AREA
Gloucester is anchored by Gloucester Cathedral, whose abbey church tower — over 500 years old — is the tallest Norman tower in England, alongside the historic Gloucester Docks, once a major inland port. The city’s housing ranges from central Georgian terraces to Victorian suburbs like Tuffley and Barnwood, and newer development around Quedgeley and Longlevens.
Given this spread of construction eras and neighbourhood character across the city, we always confirm which part of Gloucester a property sits in before recommending the right survey.

They took the time to advise us before we contracted with them, recommending we get a structural engineer to check the house before our survey due to the specific concerns we had, even if that could have meant we did not need to use their services in the end. They were also very responsive and helpful throughout the process.Posted on GoogleHelenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found this firm very easy to deal with and they were able to arrange a survey quite promptly. Charles the surveyor gave me a call after his inspection to talk everything through, which was much better than just receiving a written report. The report followed shortly which was very comprehensive with photos and explanations included. I would highly recommend this company.Posted on GoogleFrancesco SticchiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The service provided was excellent and thorough. It allowed us to avoid a very troublesome acquisition of a first house. We were impressed by the level of details provided in the survey and, in particular, by the kind and precise heads up via phone call received right after the survey was completed. We could not recommend this service more for its careful and thoughtful attention to the client.Posted on GoogleSteveTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently used Cotswold Surveyors for my flat purchase. Guy was thorough and knowledgable and provided a verbal report before the written one came through. I would certainly recommend them.
