Totnes is one of the UK’s oldest towns with origins dating back to 907AD when Totnes Castle was built. As one of only 5 Devonshire towns mentioned in the Doomsday Book, the town’s beautiful medieval and Tudor architecture is still a major feature, as is its attractive location on the bank of the River Dart.
Today, Totnes still thrives as a commercial hub and, over the years, it has also developed into a centre for arts and music, and alternative cultures. As a free-thinking place ideally situated between Dartmoor and the South Devon coast, this is a desirable town to visit or live in.
The team at H&S Surveyors have a wealth of local property experience and a broad menu of surveying services to help you get the most from your property purchase in Totnes.

Buying a property is a huge commitment, and it makes good financial sense to ensure that you’re getting the best value for money. Whether you have your eye on a family home, a holiday cottage or a buy-to-let property, our expert property valuations and independent home surveys will give you all the facts you need to make a sound financial decision.
H&S Surveyors are known across South Devon as a professional team you can trust. We combine our technical surveying skills with a deep knowledge of local housing stock, using our trademark-friendly, professional approach to provide surveys and valuations for all requirements.
In addition to the above specialist surveys, we also carry out Residential Property Valuation Services in Totnes and the surrounding area, including Help-To-Buy Valuations, Shared Ownership Valuations, Fire Insurance Valuations and Desktop Valuations.
As South Devon RICS Surveyors with many years of experience in town, country and seaside homes, you can rely on our specialist investigations to alert you to any building defects and issues with the property you are thinking of investing in. Our survey reports are designed to be jargon-free and easy to understand, delivering as much factual information as possible about the age, construction and condition of the building in question.
Our professional home surveys are impartial investigations for the benefit of property buyers who wish to protect themselves against nasty building surprises such as damp issues, timber decay and even structural movement. If any issues of serious concern are detected, you can even use the survey findings to go back to the seller and renegotiate the price.
