Hughes Surveyors

Giving you peace of mind when buying a new home…

Hughes Surveyors was established in 2000 by Chartered Building Surveyor, John Hughes. John Hughes has over 22 years of experience surveying a wide range of different building types and brings his comprehensive technical understanding of building methodology to his surveying work.

We are an independent company based in Ringwood and cover Hampshire, Dorset and Devon, including the postcode areas of Southampton, Dorchester, Salisbury and Exeter. All surveys are carried out by property expert, John Hughes.

We have an excellent working knowledge of this local area and the properties in the location, so you can be confident that extensive knowledge and skill will be brought to your house survey.

As buying a house can be one of the biggest purchases in a life time, it is vital to know as much as possible about the structure and condition of the property you want to buy. At Hughes Surveyors we offer the full range of house surveys, including RICS Homebuyer Reports and Building Surveys that can be personalised to your exact requirements.

If you have any specific concerns about the property you are intending to purchase, the survey can be tailored to suit you and your property requirements. We do all we can to provide a service that is of the highest quality.

As Hughes Surveyors is an independent company, we act solely on the behalf of our clients, providing advice and assistance in a clear and impartial manner. We are a friendly and personable company, ensuring that we are available to clients should they wish to contact us for further information about the survey and report.

We aim to have reports sent out within 3 days of the survey date and we are happy to discuss the report once you have read it.

We are regulated by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.

Contact us today to discuss the requirements for your survey – we could save you thousands of pounds on potential future repair costs.

We dealt direct with John Hughes and I have to say after previous frustrating experiences with building surveys, where you are not a lot wiser after the survey than before, that the service he provided was second to none. I cannot speak to highly of the survey we received. John contacted us within hours of receiving the request. He carried out the full building survey at quite short notice and dealt with arranging to get access to what was an empty property without incident. The report was received within a couple of days and was very comprehensive indeed giving us all the information that we needed and going into great detail into every aspect of the property. I rang John after receipt of the service to talk through a few points and found him very helpful indeed. All I can say is that if you need a full survey of an older property carried out I can thoroughly recommend his services, certainly I would contact John if we have need of a property survey in the future - but not too soon I hope! Good, fast and responsive service and an excellent and comprehensive report. Steve

An excellent survey on a potentially tricky property (old house, by the water). Only dealt with John himself, who was extremely professional throughout. Thoroughly recommended.

Good service all round. Very quick to complete the inspection and report, and thorough at the same time. Was happy to discuss any points over the phone. The vendors were in at the time and commented that John was friendly and professional.

He was friendly and prompt and the report seemed thorough. Better than my previous full structural servey 21 years ago by someone else.

I had a call from John Hughes within minutes of submitting my quote request. He showed a real interest in the details of my survey - which had some specific requirements - and had helpful suggestions to this end. He sent my survey report within 2 days of the survey taking place. Highly recommended and excellent value.
