A property consultancy
built on craft and quiet rigour.
Declan Bishop is an independent property consultant working across the PE and LN postcodes. The practice was founded on a simple idea: that the people who pay for a survey deserve to understand it — and to trust the person who wrote it.

Over fifteen years inside the construction and surveying industry.
Declan trained as a building professional before specialising in surveying, damage diagnostics and domestic energy. That hands-on background means every report is written with a real understanding of how buildings are put together — and how they fail.
The practice serves homeowners deciding whether to buy, landlords protecting their portfolios, families taking handover of a new build, and estate agents who need a calm, independent voice when a transaction gets complicated.
What clients return for, again and again, is the rare combination of formal accreditation, working-site experience, and the willingness to explain the findings in language they can actually use.
Triple-accredited across surveying, construction and damage diagnostics.
Globally recognised standard of professional practice in surveying, valuation and property advice.
Chartered status confirming expertise across construction quality, defects and building performance.
Specialist accreditation in moisture, damp, and building damage diagnosis and remediation.
Four principles
that shape every report.
Independence
No agency relationships, no kickbacks, no shortcuts. Just an honest professional opinion you can act on.
Rigour
Methodical inspection, accredited tools, and reports written to a standard that holds up under scrutiny.
Clarity
Plain-English commentary instead of jargon. Findings explained so you know what to do next.
Care
Working with a small number of clients at any one time, so every project gets the attention it deserves.
“The job of a property consultant is to take a complicated building and hand a calm, honest summary back to the person who has to make the decision.”
