Listed Building Surveyors in Surrey
Surrey is a historic region of the UK with a fascinating heritage, including castles and cathedrals, settlements and stately homes. Evidence can be found throughout the county, from the magnificence of Hampton Court Palace to historic estates such as Polesden Lacey at Great Bookham, Loseley Park, and Hatchlands Park near Guildford, to mention a few. Great Tangley Manor on the edge of the Surrey Hills is over 1,000 years old and believed to be one of Britain’s oldest dwellings.
From our head office on the outskirts of Guildford, H+R offer industry-leading services for the maintenance and restoration of listed buildings and period structures all over Surrey and across the UK. Our work includes architectural conservation and historic building surveys, specialist damp surveys and timber surveys.
Our multidisciplinary team of building pathologists have many years of experience and an abundance of knowledge that enables us to bring a uniquely holistic approach to our building investigations to determine the root cause of structural decay. We work with all kinds of heritage properties in Epsom, Weybridge and beyond. A selection of our recent case studies can be viewed by clicking here.

Testimonials
I have known and seen work undertaken by Hutton+Rostron for over 20 years. I have always been impressed by their professional approach and depth of knowledge in the field of building surveys and pathology.
When it comes to seeking expert advice on the condition of the timber in an old building we turn to Hutton+Rostron whom we know we can rely upon to give a thorough and efficient appraisal which we can then use to develop the scope of the repairs.
We have worked with Hutton + Rostron over many years now, and find them knowledgeable, professional, helpful and practical. They understand both the needs of historic buildings and the forces driving their alteration, which means that their expert advice is always framed in a suitable way. We greatly enjoy our relationship with them, and look forward to many more years of collaboration.
H+R have provided a great service; I’m particularly happy with the high level of technical knowledge of their staff and willingness to take time to explain what they are doing and why. I thoroughly recommend them.
Squire and Partners have worked closely with Hutton + Rostron on a number of projects, including the UNISON Headquarters and 74 St James’s Street.
We have been impressed by their depth of knowledge of historic buildings and look forward to working with them again in the future.
Having worked as Project Manager on a number of high-value, listed houses, there is in my opinion clear benefit and value to a project in having H+R on board at the earliest stage possible.
Understanding the hidden condition of a historic building is crucial in making accurate budget and programme estimations. Hutton + Rostron provide an unrivalled service in this sector allowing us to make informed decisions and mitigate the risks of historic building fabric before they materialise. Hutton + Rostron have provided input on a number of Walton Wanger projects, providing us with a range of environmental investigations, which have enabled the design process and contract negotiations to be more accurate and more robust.
Hutton + Rostron and Sandberg have enjoyed a long standing and valued professional relationship and expect this to continue and develop in the future. Our work together ranges from the routine to the quirky, with the latter often being the most fascinating and therefore enjoyable!
Now that we have reached the end of the works at Great Portland Street, I would like to thank you and your team for all your efforts. The reports on existing condition provided by the team at Hutton + Rostron were invaluable and helped us de-risk the project for GPE. Equally your assistance throughout the project where unforeseen issues arose was gratefully received.
A full service through pre-construction, construction and early occupation.
