Chartered building surveyors and RICS regulated consultancy across Fulham

Fulham is a popular Hammersmith and Fulham district of Victorian terraces and Edwardian houses running down to the Thames at Bishop’s Park and Hurlingham. Our RICS regulated chartered surveyors provide building surveys, party wall awards, dilapidations, defect diagnosis, fire safety consultancy and project advisory across Fulham SW6.

We survey the full range of Fulham property — Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses, mansion flats and riverside apartments around Fulham Road, Parsons Green and Bishop’s Park. The area includes the Hurlingham Park Conservation Area, with the council operating several conservation areas and Article 4 directions on many residential streets. Our advice is used by homeowners, purchasers, leaseholders, managing agents and developers across SW6.

Local Property Context

Property and surveying conditions in Fulham

Fulham’s Victorian solid-wall terraces, riverside ground and Article 4 streets create a particular pattern of damp, movement and consent issues.

Local Building Stock

Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses, mansion flats and riverside apartments around Fulham Road, Parsons Green and Bishop’s Park. We assess both period houses and modern riverside developments, and individual flat demises.

Solid-Wall Damp

Victorian solid brick terraces are prone to penetrating damp, with rising damp and condensation also common. We diagnose each mechanism separately and recommend proportionate remedies rather than a blanket chemical damp-proof course.

Riverside Subsidence

Riverside properties on Thames alluvial ground can show subsidence and settlement. We assess crack patterns, check for historic underpinning and advise whether movement is stable or progressive.

Riverside Flat Roofs

Flat roofs on 1970s–80s riverside developments are a frequent source of failure. We assess coverings, falls and detailing and recommend proportionate repair or replacement.

Conservation & Article 4

The Hurlingham Park Conservation Area and the council’s Article 4 directions on many residential streets affect alterations. Our reports flag where consent is needed for external changes.

Party Wall Matters

Loft conversions, side-returns, basements and extensions routinely trigger Party Wall etc. Act 1996 notices. We act for building or adjoining owners and prepare awards with a thorough schedule of condition.

Getting Here

We reach Fulham via Parsons Green, Putney Bridge and Fulham Broadway (District line) and inspect across SW6 regularly, bringing current local knowledge of the area’s terraces and riverside stock to each appointment.
