Surveyors in
Oxfordshire

A home survey in Oxfordshire costs between £400 and £950 depending on the property size, age and survey level. A RICS Level 2 Home Survey for a typical three bedroom semi detached house in Oxford, Banbury or Didcot generally costs from £525 ex VAT. A RICS Level 3 Building Survey for a period property such as a Cotswold stone cottage, a Listed building, or a larger Victorian property in North Oxford or Banbury typically starts from £600 to £950. All quotes are fixed price, no VAT added, and no travel surcharges for any Oxfordshire location. We provide a free quote within 24 hours.

For a modern Oxfordshire property built within the last 20 years, a RICS Level 2 Home Survey is usually appropriate. For period properties including Cotswold stone cottages in Burford, Chipping Norton and the surrounding villages, Victorian and Edwardian houses in Oxford and Banbury, Listed buildings, thatched properties, converted barns, or any property of unusual construction, we strongly recommend a RICS Level 3 Building Survey. Many Oxfordshire properties are older, stone built and in conservation areas and these always warrant a more thorough survey. Call us on 03300 438471 and an Oxfordshire surveyor will advise.

We typically schedule inspections within 5 to 10 working days of your enquiry, subject to access. Reports are delivered within 5 to 7 working days of the inspection. For urgent cases we can often accommodate earlier appointments. Tell us your deadline when you enquire.

A probate valuation is required when someone passes away and their estate includes residential property in Oxfordshire. Given the premium property values across much of the county, a correct valuation has significant inheritance tax implications. Our Oxfordshire valuers provide RICS Red Book probate valuations accepted by HMRC and the Probate Registry.

Yes. Cotswold limestone is a defining building material across west Oxfordshire including Burford, Chipping Norton, Witney and surrounding villages. These properties require specific surveying expertise as the stone weathers in particular ways, mortar types and their condition are critical, and lime mortar rather than cement is required for any repairs. Our surveyors have extensive experience with Cotswold stone and listed Cotswold properties and understand the specific maintenance and conservation requirements.

Yes. Oxfordshire has a high concentration of Listed buildings and thatched properties, from the medieval colleges of Oxford to stone cottages and farmhouses throughout the county. Our surveyors have extensive experience with Listed and thatched buildings and we always recommend a RICS Level 3 Building Survey. We understand the specific conservation, maintenance and repair considerations that apply to these specialist building types and provide reports that address them properly.
