A survey written without knowledge of the local market is little more than a checklist, and Lancashire's commercial property doesn't reward that approach. Preston's Station Quarter is bringing new Grade A office space into a city otherwise built on older stock, Blackburn's Innovation Quarter is doing something similar on a smaller scale, and Blackpool's economy still runs on the seafront hotels, entertainment venues, and retail units that serve its visitors. Lancaster's commercial buildings sit within a compact, older city centre, while Burnley's manufacturing base gives its industrial stock a different character again.
Our RICS-registered surveyors cover Lancashire as part of our wider North West coverage, supporting property owners, investors, occupiers, lenders, and insolvency practitioners throughout the county. Instructions draw on 180 years of experience in commercial property.

A thorough assessment of a commercial property's condition, identifying structural defects, maintenance requirements, and potential liabilities. We inspect accessible elements of the building and provide a detailed report to support your purchase, lease, or investment decision.
Dilapidations are the repair and reinstatement obligations that arise under a commercial lease. Whether you are a landlord preparing a schedule of dilapidations or a tenant seeking to understand your liability at lease end, we assess the position clearly and negotiate on your behalf where required.
A schedule of condition records the precise state of a property at a specific point in time, most commonly at the start of a lease. The document limits a tenant's repair liability to no worse than the condition recorded, providing important protection throughout the lease term.
A measured survey produces accurate floor plans, elevations, and sections of a building for use in design, development, or asset management. Our surveyors capture detailed spatial data on site, delivering drawings to the specification and scale your project requires.
Preston, Lancaster, Blackpool, Blackburn, and Burnley: our surveyors work across the full commercial range these towns have to offer:
Preston's Station Quarter and Blackburn's Innovation Quarter are introducing newer office buildings into towns where the surrounding stock is often decades older. Roofs and building walls starting to wear, and services that predate more recent tenant fit outs are what our surveys tend to uncover in the older buildings nearby. A survey ahead of a purchase or letting tells you which category you're dealing with.
Blackpool's seafront and town centre retail and leisure premises have absorbed decades of seasonal wear, while Lancaster's high street and Burnley's town centre have older buildings that have changed hands repeatedly. Structural movement, damp areas, and alterations made without proper building control sign-off are common across this stock. That's exactly the detail a schedule of condition or dilapidations assessment is designed to capture.
Burnley and Blackburn's industrial and logistics stock still reflects the county's textile manufacturing past, much of it since adapted for modern production and warehousing, while Preston's position on the M6 and M55 supports a growing logistics and aerospace supply chain. Cladding condition, roof integrity, and floor loading capacity are the areas our surveyors concentrate on across this type of building.
An investment portfolio spread across Preston, Lancaster, Blackpool, Blackburn, and Burnley is likely to combine several different building eras and uses, and that mix is exactly where inconsistent survey coverage lets problems go unnoticed. Assessing every property in a portfolio against the same standard mitigates this potential issue.
• RICS accreditation on every instruction, the standard lenders, solicitors, and counterparties expect to see.
• A team with working knowledge of Lancashire's commercial centres, from Preston's Station Quarter to Blackpool's seafront leisure economy.
• A proven track record across commercial property surveying nationwide.
• Consistently strong client reviews from property owners, investors, and occupiers we've worked with across the region.

From new office space in Preston to converted mill buildings around Burnley and Blackburn, Lancashire's commercial stock covers a huge span of ages, and the survey has to be pitched at the building rather than a general idea of what the area is like.
