We're not a distant national firm. We live and work here on the Fylde Coast, and we genuinely care about helping you make the right decision when buying a property in Blackpool.
We know Blackpool's property market inside out — from damp terraces in Bispham to coastal bungalows in Cleveleys. That local insight shapes every report we write.
Our survey reports are written in plain English. We use a simple traffic-light system so you can see exactly what needs attention before you exchange contracts.
Got a question about your report? Every client gets a free follow-up call with their surveyor. We don't just send a document — we help you understand it.
Whether you're a first-time buyer or moving to a larger home, our RICS home surveys give you a clear picture of the property's condition before you commit.
The most popular choice for properties in reasonable condition. Our RICS Level 2 home buyer survey gives you a thorough assessment of the property's condition using a traffic-light rating system.
Our most comprehensive survey. Ideal for older properties, period properties and Victorian terraces common across Blackpool. The Level 3 building survey gives you a detailed report on all aspects of the property.
Need to know what a Blackpool property is really worth? Our RICS Red Book valuations are accepted by mortgage lenders, solicitors and HMRC — giving you a professional, independent assessment.
From first contact to your detailed report, we make the process as straightforward as possible.
Fill in our quick form or get in touch. We'll confirm availability and provide a clear, fixed fee — no hidden charges.
One of our experienced RICS surveyors visits the property and conducts a thorough physical inspection — typically 2–4 hours for a Level 3 survey.
Your detailed survey report is delivered within 5 working days. It's written in plain English, with photos and a clear condition rating for every element of the property.
We'll walk you through the findings together, answer your questions, and help you decide your next steps — whether that's negotiating on price or walking away.
From Victorian terraces to modern developments, we survey properties right across the Fylde Coast.
Real reviews from real clients who trusted Blackpool Surveyors with their home-buying journey.
"I was buying my first home on Layton Road and had no idea what to expect from a survey. James put me completely at ease and the report flagged a damp issue that saved me thousands in the negotiation. Brilliant service — I'd recommend Blackpool Surveyors to anyone."
"We bought a Victorian terrace in Poulton-le-Fylde and David completed a Level 3 building survey for us. The report was incredibly detailed — photos of every defect, repair cost estimates, the lot. Worth every penny. Fantastic local team."
"Sarah surveyed a Bispham bungalow for us. The report came back within 4 days, written clearly without all the legal jargon. She even called to talk us through it. Genuinely outstanding customer service — proper local surveyors who actually care."
"Used Blackpool Surveyors for a Level 2 survey on a seafront property in Cleveleys. The report was thorough and highlighted some issues with the coastal exposure that we hadn't even thought about. Incredibly professional and knowledgeable team."
"Excellent RICS surveyors in Blackpool. Quick turnaround on our homebuyer report and the team were very responsive to questions. We used the findings to negotiate £8,000 off the asking price. Amazing value."
"I'd been trying to find a reliable surveyor in Blackpool for weeks. Found Blackpool Surveyors online and booked straight away. The surveyor was on time, professional and the report was clear as a bell. Highly recommend for anyone on the Fylde Coast."
Got a question? Here are the most common things our clients ask before booking a survey in Blackpool.
A RICS Level 2 home buyer survey (also called a homebuyer report) is a visual survey suited to properties in reasonable condition. It uses a traffic-light rating system to highlight issues but doesn't include an in-depth structural analysis.
A RICS Level 3 building survey is our most thorough option. It's highly recommended for older properties, period properties, Victorian terraces, and any home you're planning to extend or significantly renovate. The Level 3 survey includes detailed descriptions of all defects, their cause, and estimated repair costs. If you're buying a property in Blackpool built before 1950, we almost always recommend a Level 3.

As a rough guide, a RICS Level 2 home buyer survey in Blackpool starts from around £350–£500, while a Level 3 building survey typically starts from £500–£800+.

Yes. Blackpool Surveyors is a RICS regulated practice, which means we operate under strict professional standards set by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.

The length of the inspection depends on the property. A Level 2 survey on a two-bedroom terrace typically takes 1.5–2.5 hours on site. A Level 3 building survey on a larger period property could take 4–6 hours. Once the inspection is complete, we aim to deliver your written report within 5 working days. Need it faster?

Discovering serious issues in a survey is actually very common — especially with older Blackpool properties. Don't panic. Our survey report will explain the issue clearly, give our opinion on the likely cause, and suggest appropriate action. We also include estimated repair costs where possible. We'll follow up with a free call to talk you through the options — whether that's asking the seller to fix issues, renegotiating the price, or in some cases, deciding not to proceed. It's our job to give you the information you need to make the right choice.
