We're a team of highly experienced, qualified surveyors based in Coventry. Everything we do is about helping people buy and sell property with complete confidence.
Coventry Surveyors was founded with one simple aim: to give property buyers and sellers in Coventry access to the highest quality, most honest survey service available. We grew out of frustration with the experience many buyers had — getting generic reports that left them with more questions than answers.
We've spent years surveying every type of property in and around the Coventry area — from Victorian back-to-backs in Foleshill to sprawling detached homes in Kenilworth, commercial retail units in the city centre to modern new-builds in Binley. That depth of local experience is something you simply can't replicate.
When you instruct Coventry Surveyors, you're not getting a distant, corporate service. You're getting a team that is rooted in this city, cares about its property stock, and genuinely wants to help you make a sound decision. Our survey reports are written in plain English, backed by data, and presented in a way that actually helps you understand the condition of a property and what it means for you.
We built Coventry Surveyors on a set of values that guide everything we do — from how we conduct our inspections to how we write our reports.
We carry out thorough inspections that go beyond the obvious, checking every accessible area with care and precision.
Our reports are written in plain, accessible English — not jargon. We explain what we found and what it means for you.
We're fully independent, RICS regulated, and have no commercial interest in the property — so you always get an honest view.
We understand property buying is time-sensitive. We deliver reports promptly — usually within 3–5 working days of inspection.
Our team of experienced surveyors brings together decades of combined expertise in residential and commercial property surveying across Coventry and the Midlands.
Senior Surveyor
James has over 14 years of experience surveying residential and commercial properties across Coventry and Warwickshire. He specialises in complex structural assessments and has surveyed everything from pre-war terraces in Foleshill to substantial country houses in the surrounding Midlands villages.
James is particularly passionate about helping first-time buyers navigate the home-buying process. "People often feel overwhelmed," he says. "A good survey gives them clarity — and that's what we're here to provide."
Residential Property Surveyor
Sarah joined Coventry Surveyors after a decade working in property and construction across the Midlands. She has completed over 300 residential surveys in Coventry and surrounding areas, with particular expertise in Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing common to the city.
"There's real satisfaction in helping someone avoid a financial disaster," Sarah says. "When a survey report helps a buyer negotiate a fair price — or walk away from a money pit — that's what makes this job worthwhile."
Building Surveyor
Daniel's background is in property and construction, with a focus on commercial building surveys, fire risk assessments and expert witness work. He has a particularly strong understanding of compliance with building regulations and fire safety measures in both residential and commercial properties.
Daniel handles our most complex commercial surveys, from retail units in Coventry's city centre to industrial facilities on the outskirts of the Midlands. "Commercial surveying is about risk management," he explains. "Our job is to make sure our clients understand every risk before they sign on the dotted line."

"James from Coventry Surveyors was absolutely fantastic. He took the time to explain everything in the survey report — not just what the problems were, but what they meant and what we should do about them. I felt like I was in safe hands throughout."
"Sarah was brilliant — she explained the survey in plain English and was honest about what she found. No jargon, no fuss. The report was beautifully detailed and helped us knock money off the asking price. Highly recommended to anyone buying a property in Coventry."
"Daniel did a fantastic job with our commercial survey. The report was incredibly thorough and highlighted fire safety compliance issues we had no idea about. Without it, we could have been in serious trouble. Truly expert guidance on property matters."
