New surveying firm launches

Evaluate Surveyors offers a full range of survey and valuation services using a network of consultants, all of whom are experienced chartered surveyors with local expertise. Evaluate will carry out valuations for mortgage purposes, using physical inspection, external drive-by, automated valuations models or desktop methodologies.

Evaluate also offers the full range of valuation survey and panel management services, including the appointment and management of a panel of surveyors and an audit service.

The firm's founders, Paul Trott and Malcolm Webb, have considerable knowledge of both residential valuation and survey work, and have experience as in-house experts and suppliers of valuation services for major banks and lending institutions.

Paul Trott, managing director, said:

“With more than 40 years’ experience in the residential surveying market and having worked for major Banks and surveying firms, we believe that we are uniquely placed to offer advice and a first class surveying service. We will be using state of the art technology, and offering a wide range of survey types across the whole of the UK. This is an exciting time with an ever-expanding housing market and we see huge potential in launching an efficient and reliable surveying service, bringing back capacity to what has been a shrinking supply.”
