About Glasgow Surveyors

Your trusted team of chartered building surveyors serving property buyers, sellers, and owners across Scotland

Who We Are

Glasgow Surveyors is a professional surveying firm dedicated to providing expert property services across Scotland. Our team of RICS registered valuers and chartered building surveyors combines technical expertise with genuine local market knowledge.

We're not just another surveying company. We're Glasgow locals who understand Scotland's unique property market, from Victorian tenements to modern city apartments. Every property transaction deserves professional attention, and that's what we deliver.

Founded on the principle that property buyers and sellers deserve honest, thorough advice, we've built our reputation one satisfied client at a time. Whether you're a first-time purchaser nervous about your investment, a seller preparing property for sale, or a commercial property investor, we provide the professional service you need.

Our Expertise

As RICS qualified professionals, our surveyors bring years of experience in building surveying, property valuations, and consultancy. We serve residential and commercial clients across Scotland, with particular expertise in Glasgow, Edinburgh, and surrounding areas.

Our range of services covers everything from basic home reports required for property transactions in Scotland, to detailed building surveys for complex properties, to commercial property valuations for business owners and investors. We're property consultants who truly understand what our clients need.

Every member of our team holds professional accreditation. We maintain continuous professional development to stay current with industry best practices, regulatory changes, and emerging issues in Scotland's property market. When you work with us, you're getting qualified experts backed by professional indemnity insurance.

Our Approach

We believe good surveying starts with listening. Before we inspect any property, we take time to understand your needs. Are you worried about damp? Concerned about structural issues? Need accurate valuation for a lender? We tailor our inspection and reporting to address your specific concerns.

During inspections, our surveyor examines properties thoroughly but respectfully. We treat every building - whether a modest flat or a grand commercial property - with professional care. Our job is to identify issues, but we explain them in plain English, not confusing jargon.

After the inspection, our reports provide clear findings with realistic advice. We don't exaggerate problems or downplay concerns. Our property valuations reflect genuine market conditions. If you have questions about the report, we're always available to discuss our findings.

Why Choose Us?

The surveying profession has plenty of practitioners, so why choose Glasgow Surveyors? Here's what makes us different:

Real Local Knowledge

We're not a nationwide chain with distant decision-makers. We're Glasgow surveyors who live and work in the communities we serve. We understand local property market conditions, common issues with Scottish buildings, and what buyers and sellers in Scotland face during property transactions.

Professional Qualifications That Matter

Every surveyor on our team is a chartered professional with accreditation from recognized bodies including RICS, CIOB, and RPSA. These aren't just letters after names - they represent years of training, ongoing professional development, and commitment to industry standards. Our RICS registered valuers follow strict guidelines that protect you.

Clear Communication

Technical surveying produces technical information, but our job is making that information useful. We write reports in clear English and explain findings in ways that make sense. If you're confused about anything, we're available to discuss. No question is too basic.

Range of Services

From simple home reports to complex commercial property valuations, from quantity surveying to property management advisory, we offer comprehensive property services. You can trust one surveying firm for all your property needs across Scotland.

Fast, Reliable Service

Property transactions often move quickly. We provide fast turnaround without cutting corners. Our inspector arrives on time, conducts thorough inspections, and delivers reports promptly. We respect your timeline.

Fair, Transparent Pricing

We quote clearly with no hidden fees. You'll know the cost before we start work. Our pricing is competitive because we're efficient, not because we rush inspections or produce thin reports.
