Understanding the true condition of a historic building is the vital first step in any successful conservation, restoration, or alteration project. At Maydencroft, our specialist team carries out in-depth surveys and diagnostic investigations for listed and heritage buildings of all types — from timber-framed cottages and churches to Georgian townhouses and barns.

Our condition reports and structural surveys help uncover signs of decay, movement, water ingress, insect damage, or previous unsympathetic repairs that may affect the fabric or integrity of a building. Using both traditional inspection techniques and modern tools such as high-definition drone imaging, we assess both accessible and difficult-to-reach areas like roofs, chimneys and façades with minimal disruption.

These reports are essential not only to guide restoration works but also to secure planning permission, listed building consent, or heritage grant funding. We provide clear, accessible documentation, including:

  • Condition surveys
  • Diagnostic reports
  • Heritage statements
  • Schedule of repair works
  • Liaison with conservation officers
  • Drone survey imagery and reports

Whether you’re planning significant renovations or simply maintaining a cherished historic home, our surveys give you the accurate, conservation-focused information you need to make confident, compliant decisions.
