Frequently asked

Surveys in Surrey: your questions answered

Which parts of Surrey do you cover?

The whole county, from our Oxted base. Reigate, Redhill, Dorking, Horley, Caterham, Warlingham, Epsom, Banstead, Leatherhead, Esher, Cobham, Weybridge, Guildford, Godalming and Woking are all regular ground for us.

Do you survey listed and period houses in Surrey?

Yes. Period town houses, Surrey Hills cottages and larger country houses are exactly where a RICS Home Survey Level 3 from an RICS-qualified surveyor who understands traditional construction pays for itself.

How is the fee for a Surrey survey worked out?

Level 2 and Level 3 fees are based on the property's value, size and type. Answer a few questions online and you get an instant figure with no obligation. Party wall, commercial and our other services are quoted individually.

Is subsidence common in Surrey?

Cracking related to shrinkable clay soils, mature trees and old drains is one of the most common issues we investigate across the county. A survey identifies signs of movement and whether further investigation or monitoring is sensible. It does not guarantee an outcome, but it tells you what you are dealing with.

What clients say

  • My experience with Huxley Surveyors more than met expectations. Mathew did our Level 3 pre-purchase survey of a flat in a Grade II listed property in Hove. His very extensive report was well presented, and upon receipt Mat proactively suggested a follow up phone call to clarify any points in the report and to answer any questions. All in all, a good experience. I can highly recommend Huxley Surveyors.

  • The survey itself was exceptionally detailed and comprehensive, leaving no stone unturned. The report was clear, well-structured, and easy to understand, highlighting both major concerns and smaller issues that could have easily been overlooked.

  • Fabulous service from Chris. We have used Huxley surveyors twice and would recommend without doubt. The service was professional, informed and really efficient. Following a survey, Chris offered follow- up calls to help with anything that wasn’t clear. A fantastic service.
