Patterson Francis & Associates specialise in all aspects of surveying, from providing mortgage valuations so lenders can get a clear valuation of a property, to home buyer reports and building/structural surveys. When you want to get a clear picture of the commercial or domestic property you are considering buying we can give you the confidence that all areas have been inspected.

With Patterson Francis & Associates you get the comfort of working with professional surveyors with the skills and experience to offer the best standards of service. We are members of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). This guarantees that we have the right qualifications, adhere to the best standards and always behave in an professional manner.

When we examine a property we offer impartial advice, recommendations and suggestions. This is important because it prevents us from favouring either the property owner or the potential buyer. We take a clear and unbiased look at the premises in question, providing a detailed report that clearly explains the condition and our valuation of the property. With our help you can ensure you understand exactly what you are getting yourself into and how much you should pay. You should never skip the survey just to save money. It will to run the risk of unforeseen repair costs.

Every survey we deliver is as thorough as possible. You can choose a full home buyer report or individual services from us depending on your requirements. If requested we can offer everything from roof inspections to structural reports, our surveyors inspect gas, electrical and drainage systems, but please note that no formal tests will be done.

After each inspection a full report will be delivered. A list of recommendations will also be provided, with issues listed according to how important they are. Repair costs will be calculated so you can get a rough idea of how expensive it will be to get the property into the correct condition. We are always happy to go through our findings with clients and give them additional advice.
