Suffolk's commercial property market is defined by contrasts. Felixstowe's port drives one of the UK's busiest logistics corridors, Ipswich anchors the county's office and retail activity, and Bury St Edmunds, Newmarket, and Lowestoft each serve distinct local economies with their own building stock. Across all of them, a survey carried out properly is what keeps costly surprises off your desk.
Our RICS-registered surveyors are based in Bury St Edmunds and work with property owners, investors, occupiers, lenders, and insolvency practitioners across Suffolk. Instructions are handled through our Bury St Edmunds office, backed by 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.
Our surveyors cover the full range of commercial stock across Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds, Lowestoft, Felixstowe, and Newmarket:
Ipswich is Suffolk's primary office market, where a mix of waterfront regeneration schemes and older town centre premises creates a wide range of survey requirements. Structural defects, services condition, and compliance gaps are the findings that most commonly affect acquisition decisions and lease negotiations.
Retail premises across Suffolk range from Ipswich's town centre units to the historic high streets of Bury St Edmunds and Newmarket. Older stock regularly presents damp, unrecorded alterations, and deteriorating fabric – conditions a schedule of condition or dilapidations assessment addresses directly.
Felixstowe's position as the UK's busiest container port makes Suffolk's industrial and logistics market strategically significant. Port-adjacent warehousing and distribution facilities carry specific survey requirements around structural load, cladding condition, and operational configuration that our surveyors assess thoroughly.
Suffolk attracts investors drawn by competitive asset pricing and a stable occupier base. For clients managing investment assets across the county, we deliver the same rigorous standard of survey work across every property, giving you a reliable picture of condition and liability throughout your portfolio.
From Felixstowe's logistics facilities to Ipswich's offices and the market town stock of Bury St Edmunds and Newmarket, our surveyors have the experience to deliver a survey you can rely on.
