As you know, I am proud to work for Desbruslais Surveyors, where our specialist area is working with high value and complex properties, with an emphasis on listed buildings, period properties, and country estates. If you didn’t know that you know it now! We are really excited to be creating our very own Desbruslais magazine, and one of our features is called ‘Ask a Surveyor’. Which, as you might have guessed, is a chance for our surveyors to answer some questions about the job, about what they do, even offer advice to people. And we won’t even charge for this! We might use your question in the feature, and frankly, the trickier the better. So – this is your chance to ask a surveyor absolutely anything. Pop your question in comments below and see if you can outfox one of our experts!

This photo was taken back in 2017, five years after I graduated as a Quantity Surveyor. It was during a site valuation with the team, following a site meeting. We had a great time chatting on top of the unfinished building. Those were the days when we would walk into meetings anticipating client feedback. Looking back, those experiences shaped who we are today. The learning never stops. Every day brings new lessons – it’s up to us whether we choose to dive deeper or let the opportunity pass by. #learning #quantitysurveyor #quantitysurveying #project #construction
