About Barnes and Barnes Surveyors


PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY INTERESTS, REALISE YOUR PROPERTY DREAMS
Barnes and Barnes Surveyors Limited (formerly Haywater Chartered Surveyors).

We always begin with you. It’s our mission to protect your interests in a property transaction, providing you with the accurate, thorough and impartial information you need. Over the past 20 years, we’ve surveyed 1000s of London properties. Being chartered surveyor is an assurance of quality. We’re approved and monitored by RICS the professional body for chartered surveyors.

We understand that this isn’t just about a survey or valuation. It’s not just about completing a report. This is about providing you with peace of mind that you’re making the right property decisions and in many cases securing a new home for you and your loved ones.

Anyone considering the purchase of a flat or a house is well advised to commission a survey. A Barnes and Barnes Surveyors report provides the buyer with a detailed analysis of its condition, identifies any structural problems and offers reassurance that the purchase represents value for money. Our friendly, fully trained and experienced staff are ready to help clients make the right decision as to whether the property is a sound purchase.

We also provide valuations for capital gains tax, probate, shared ownership, matrimonial, leasehold extension/enfranchisement and freehold valuations to individuals, companies and shared ownership organisations.

Our party wall specialists are also available to advise you on any work that may impede a party wall. Our team can help either party negotiate the process to a successful outcome.

A range of surveys are available such as Party Wall Awards, Building Surveys, Structural Surveys, Homebuyer or Condition Reports, New Build or Rebuilding Cost Assessments.

Valuations for bank lending, shared ownership, probate, tax, matrimonial/divorce and equity release are available.

From our offices in Islington, Fulham and Marylebone, we cover the Central London, South West London and North London areas.

We booked a level 3 survey on a house in Islington. Grant was absolutely brilliant, he carried out a thorough survey of the property and we found the call before and after the survey very helpful in making sure any concerns we had were investigated.

Gill Sutton

I engaged Barnes and Barnes for a probate valuation for a property in Highbury. Grant was very thorough when conducting the survey; he also compared the house with similar sales in the area and provided a realistic valuation which we agreed with. He was extremely helpful on the day and very considerate. Highly recommend.
Response : Thank you for your review and your recommendation of Barnes and Barnes Gill.
Jane Morel
Barking
The valuation of the property for the purpose of establishing the current open market value was conducted professionally and timely. Fees compare favourably to those of other surveyors. I highly recommend Barnes and Barnes Surveyors.
Response : Many thanks for your review Jane and thank you for recommending Barnes and Barnes.
Cleo P
Greenwich
Natasha went beyond the normal service to investigate something I asked her to. She also delivered the report in a shorter timeframe because I needed it quicker. Her colleagues also spoke to me on the phone and took the time to understand my needs. Thank you!
Response : Thank you Cleo. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Its great to hear that you were happy with the Level 2 RICS Homebuyer report.
Miss A.
Battersea
Extremely thorough! Grant actually walked on the flat roof of the property we were considering buying, only to find it was absorbing water. He saved us from making an expensive mistake and we will always be grateful. Being able to have a phone call with him before and after meant we got so much more colour on the situation, he is very generous with his time. Extremely glad we chose him.
Response : Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are really pleased we were able to provide you with all the information you needed to make the decision about the property.
Richard Coyle
Forest Gate
Grant was thorough and helpful and answered all our questions and concerns. His survey is without question the best I've ever read. We couldn't be happier with the excellent service we've received.
Response : Many thanks for the review and the great quote about the report! Reviews like this make us smile :-) Thank you.
Pegah Miri
Oxford
I had a Level 2 Survey carried out by Barnes and Barnes, in particular by Grant Barnes and he provided a thorough report with photographs and helpful suggestions. I would not hesitate in using them again and Grant was so helpful to suggest if I have any follow up questions, to reach out to him and this was after a post survey call which took place. I ended up having a few follow up queries so I did indeed reach out.
Response : Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are pleased you are happy with the report and the follow-up support. Many of our customers do not realise how much detail the report has in it, so we're always more than happy to provide this service. Thanks again.

Very happy with the overall quality and value of our Homebuyers Report from Barnes and Barnes, with a timely follow-up call with our surveyor also much appreciated. Friendly approach from all staff, and our surveyor answered our questions in detail with helpful explanations of technical terms where needed in the call. Would highly recommend.
Response : Thank you for taking the time to review us Martin. The follow-up call is a key part of the overall service and really helps our customers to understand the detail of the report. We are really pleased you found this to be the case and are happy to recommend us.

Extremely thorough, very responsive and super helpful. We are in the process of buying a victorian house and Grant’s level 3 survey is a must to get a comprehensive view of what we’re getting into. Well worth it.

Valuation of residential property. Informative report produced on time and for a reasonable price. Helpful and polite staff.
Edwin Chan
Woolwich
Mr. Barnes was very helpful in identifying important defects in the house which we were planning to purchase, and as a result we were able to avoid a bad bargain. His surveying report was also extremely detailed and well-written, and his advice very professional. We would definitely recommend his firm to others.
Susan Smith
Cardiff
The survey was arranged speedily and efficiently and carried out on the day specified. The report was full and produced to a good standard although it took slightly longer than the time originally indicated. The post report discussions with the surveyor himself were very helpful.
