Supplying residential surveys since 1983
Glyn Jones entered the surveying profession in 1976 and qualified as a Chartered Building Surveyor in 1983. Glyn has over 40 years’ experience of providing in-depth survey reports for residential buildings.
The Practice was established in 2004, with the aim of providing client-friendly, value-for-money reports on residential buildings. Central to this has been a move away from the stuffy, old fashioned and boring image which some surveyors portray, to deliver a service with a smile and a personal approach.
The overriding commitment is to provide the very best reports, written in plain, fluent English and illustrated using the best digital photography.
The success of the Practice has exceeded expectations and is one indicator that the personal approach has been successful; another is the accolades received from clients; over 90% of all survey enquiries come from referrals or recommendations.
“You went way beyond the call of duty, by turning the report around in a very short time. I’m a very happy customer and I will certainly recommend you to others.”
“I asked Glyn for a full building survey prior to purchase. Service was very professional and report detailed and comprehensive. Money well spent.”

Residential surveys
Glyn Jones residential surveys are the most comprehensive available. Their format is unique and has evolved over 40 years. They are written in clear, understandable fluent English with the latest digital photographic imagery. Choose from one of the following reports.
Formerly referred to as a Full Structural Survey, this is the most comprehensive survey available. It provides an accurate assessment of condition and illustrates, using digital photographs, any faults and problems. Budget costings are given, as are specifications for any repair work necessary. The conclusion to the report gives a balanced opinion regarding overall condition, advice on how to proceed and a market valuation.

A simpler and more succinct format to the Building Survey, the Glyn Jones Homebuyer Survey is ideal for modern properties (i.e. those less than 80 years old) and built using conventional materials.
Each Glyn Jones Homebuyer Survey is individually prepared and unlike the reports of other surveyors, it does not rely upon report writing software, which produce unnecessary or inappropriate ‘standard text’.
The Glyn Jones Homebuyers Survey is cheaper than the full Building Survey but still provides thorough advice. In particular, it highlights urgent and significant matters; photographs illustrate faults.

Cracking and structural movement in buildings can cause doubt and confusion. Movement problems commonly come to light during the valuation inspection carried out by the mortgage lender, and ‘Structural Reports’ are often requested.
The Glyn Jones Structural Appraisal provides tailored advice identifying the cause and severity of any movement, together with suggested remedies. The reports, presented in a clear and concise format, are accepted by the major mortgage lenders and insurance companies.
