Chartered Surveyors Oxfordshire

Local RICS Chartered Surveyors in Oxfordshire

Harding Chartered Surveyors are the leading providers of building surveys and valuations for properties across Oxfordshire and South-East England.

When you’re purchasing a new property, getting a certified valuation is the key to understanding the building’s condition before making a formal offer. It’s not uncommon for older homes and flats in the Oxfordshire region to be housing structural defects, timber issues, dampness and even asbestos; getting a building survey sooner rather than later can save both time and money.

Properties in Oxfordshire

While Oxfordshire is one of the most affluent areas of the country, there are a lot of period, historic, and Victorian/Edwardian older homes that come with a wealth of structural issues. Properties in the area are particularly prone to damp and moisture issues. A RICS level 3 Building Survey will identify any issues within structural elements, including foundations, walls, the roof, and flooring.

Following the inspection, you will receive a detailed report that will highlight the issues and provide a list of recommendations. Our chartered surveyors in Oxfordshire can also provide a property valuation, outlining whether you’re paying a fair price based on the current market.

Surveys in Oxfordshire

RICS HomeBuyer Report: The RICS HomeBuyer report utilises a traffic light system to highlight urgent defects in a property. You can also request an optional valuation as part of the survey.
Snagging Lists: If you’re purchasing a new-build home, you can ensure your housing developer repairs all problems before your arrival by obtaining a Snagging List.
Full Building Survey: Unlike the most basic RICS HomeBuyer Report, our Full Building Survey features photographs, detailed reports and a cost-estimate to resolve any issues within the property.

I had a survey carried out by Alaa Ali on my commercial premises.
I must say that in the 30 years of dealing with surveyors I have never had such a responsive , helpful and knowledgeable surveyor.
I am in the property industry and have dealt with numerous surveyors over the years, in most cases you are provided with a report and nothing else. Alaa Ali from Hardings has gone over and above in supporting us in making the correct decision with our structural issues. I highly recommend this company. They are streets ahead of anyone else . I would never look anywhere else if I needed their services in the future.

Thanks so much to all the team at Harding! They were extremely helpful in arranging the survey for us at very short notice.

Scott did the survey on the day and he was incredibly thorough - it's given us great peace of mind for our house move. The report he gave was detailed, well laid out with excellent photographs of every aspect of the house and surrounds. He also took the time to call and walk me through his preliminary findings, which I really appreciated.

Thanks again!

Harding Chartered Surveyors were really quick and helpful throughout this process. Our Level 2 survey was completed quickly and we received an extremely detailed report the next day. Would absolutely recommend using their services!

Amelia M.

I requested a structural survey couple of years ago due to hairline cracks appearing in my walls.
The report was thorough, advising me that neighbouring trees need to be dealt with.
April 2025 I am in the process of getting the repairs done. The surveyor Alaa Ali has been very helpful assisting and advising my builder in the work that needs to be undertaken to rectify the not so hairline cracks in my Edwardian flat.
The process is not cheap, but it provides a peace of mind to the structural state of my property.

Valuation of property for selling purposes, Harding were quick and efficient, and the survey provides peace of mind that a professional surveyor carried out a proper valuation according to the RICS valuation standards. Estate agents are not necessarily qualified, surveyor always are
