Distinctive homes, carefully surveyed
Gloucestershire blends timeless charm with everyday practicality, offering everything from historic market towns and listed farmhouses to newer developments and quiet countryside hamlets. From the Regency terraces of Cheltenham to the winding lanes of Cirencester and the riverside settings of Tewkesbury, this is a county full of architectural character and variety — with every home telling its own story.
We know the Gloucestershire property landscape inside out. Our team specialises in surveying both period homes and modern builds, taking the time to understand what makes each property unique. Because we only take on a limited number of surveys each week, we can offer you the thorough, personal service needed to make clear, confident decisions.
Home Surveys in Gloucestershire
From Cotswold stone cottages and thatched village homes to Victorian terraces and suburban new builds, Gloucestershire’s homes come with a wide range of construction types, materials and quirks. That makes a considered, detailed survey all the more important — especially when properties have been extended, altered, or maintained to varying standards.
We tailor each of our surveys to the specific home, highlighting key risks and repair needs while helping you understand what’s typical for the age and style. Our aim is to leave you clear on what matters, what doesn’t, and what to plan for next.
Level 3 Building Survey – In-depth assessment for older or altered properties.
Level 2 Home Survey – Clear, structured report for conventional homes.

★★★★★
“I can't recommend Richard Russell Surveyors enough. Every part of the process was executed to an exceptional standard. They provided me with an unbelievably thorough survey (everyone I showed it to said it was the best they'd seen, including a family property solicitor). They gave me two post-survey phone calls to go through everything, and have offered to review damp proofing quotes for me once I have received them. Truly exceptional, I couldn't have asked for a better experience.”

“I would highly recommend Richard for anyone looking for a high quality building survey. I recently procured his services for a level 3 survey and was very pleased with the end product. The report is incredibly detailed, more so than others I have seen, with clear pictures and suggestions of remedial work that may be required. The after survey service has been exceptional; he took the time to explain all details of the report and address all of my questions. For anyone looking for a knowledgeable building surveyor with great customer service and detailed well written reports, give Richard a call.”
