Minster Residential Surveying is a small family-run practice specializing in residential property surveys for prospective homebuyers in York and the surrounding areas. At Minster, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional value for money to our clients through competitive pricing and providing a level of detail and care to our reporting which sets us apart from many of our competitors. As a small practice with relatively low overheads, we are able to dedicate ourselves to undertaking only one survey per day. This allows us to give our undivided attention to you as our client, provide personalized advice and deliver a high-quality report tailored to your individual needs.


We always carry out a comprehensive desktop study of the property and surrounding local area before attending the survey. Once on site, we will spend several hours assessing the property to ensure a thorough investigation is carried out. This is followed by several hours writing up the report which includes any additional research if required. We also allow for a half-hour follow up call included in the fee, to discuss any concerns or questions you may have once you have read the report.


At Minster we understand how stressful the process of buying a new property can be and we aim to remove as much of that stress from the process for you as is humanly possible.
