About Us
A Unique Firm of Chartered Surveyors combining local expertise, consistent standards and clear accountability.
What we do
CJ Bloor Property Consultants provides residential RICS surveys and valuations for private clients across the North West, Yorkshire, the West Midlands, and North Wales.
I am directly involved in the day-to-day management of the practice. From how instructions are handled through to the standards our surveys are delivered to, the way our service operates is something I take responsibility for personally.
While each survey is carried out by an experienced, RICS-qualified surveyor, my role is to ensure the framework around that work is consistent, well-managed, and properly governed. That means clear processes, professional oversight, and a service clients can rely on from start to finish.
More Than a Surveyor. A Professionally Managed Service.
At CJ Bloor, we provide a RICS-Regulated surveying service designed to give clients clarity, confidence, and consistency at a time of great importance.
Each survey is carried out by an experienced RICS-qualified surveyor, supported by the standards, systems, and accountability that underpin our service.
Why a Managed Service Changes the Outcome
Expertise, Delivered Properly
We operate through a network of highly experienced, locally based surveyors. This allows us to match the right expertise to each instruction while maintaining consistent professional standards across our service.
Independent Advice, Properly Governed
Every surveyor we work with operates independently and objectively, free from influence by third parties.
All instructions are delivered within a professionally governed framework aligned with RICS standards and guidance. This combines independent judgement with oversight, consistency, and best practice.
What this Means for You
From the Director
“We have deliberately designed our practice around experienced consultant surveyors who are fully integrated into our systems and processes. This enables us to deploy specialist expertise precisely where it adds value, without the inefficiencies and overheads associated with traditional employed models. For our clients, this delivers a more responsive and cost-effective service, underpinned by clear accountability, consistent standards and the assurance that CJ Bloor remains fully responsible from instruction through to completion.”
Professional Support and Protection
We maintain £2m professional indemnity insurance appropriate to the nature and scope of our work. Our insurance arrangements apply to all instructions undertaken on our behalf and provide reassurance that advice issued is properly supported.

Frequestly Asked Questions
Are you a regulated firm of surveyors?
Yes. CJ Bloor is fully regulated and operates in accordance with RICS professional standards and guidance. All surveyors undertaking work on our behalf are RICS-qualified.
How will your survey help me when buying a property?
Our surveys highlight any structural or maintenance issues so you can make confident choices about your purchase. You’ll understand what’s urgent, what’s routine, and what might affect the property’s long-term value.
Can I see what your reports look like before booking?
Yes. We’re completely transparent about the level of detail you’ll receive. You will receive a sample survey report when we send you a quote to see how clearly we present findings and recommendations.
Are your surveyors local and familiar with the area?
They are. We assign local surveyors who know the property types, common issues, and construction styles in your region. This ensures each report reflects real local insight, not just textbook information.
What happens if I have questions after I receive my report?
You can contact us directly after your report is delivered for clarification. Where needed, our office will coordinate with the surveyor to ensure you get accurate explanations and practical next steps.
Who will carry out my survey?
Your survey will be undertaken by a RICS-qualified surveyor appointed by CJ Bloor Property Consultants. Surveyors are selected based on experience, local knowledge, and suitability for the specific property and instruction.
Can I choose my surveyor?
Surveyors are allocated by us rather than chosen by clients. This allows us to ensure the surveyor appointed has the appropriate expertise, availability, and local market knowledge for the property being inspected.
How do you ensure consistent quality across surveys?
All instructions are managed centrally and carried out in accordance with RICS guidance and our internal standards. We operate quality control and review processes to ensure reports are clear, consistent, and professionally robust.
What makes CJ Bloor Property Consultants different from all the other surveyor firms?
We take the time to produce detailed, easy-to-understand reports that genuinely help you make informed decisions. Our surveyors are all RICS qualified and pride themselves on accuracy, transparency, and clear explanations rather than generic wording.
Are your surveyors employed by you?
Our surveying services are delivered by experienced consultant surveyors working under the management and responsibility of CJ Bloor Property Consultants. This approach allows us to appoint the very best surveyors based on suitability, local knowledge, and property type, rather than availability alone.
Is my survey covered by professional indemnity insurance?
Yes. All surveys and valuations undertaken on our behalf are covered by our professional indemnity insurance arrangements, providing reassurance that advice is properly supported.
Will my report be checked before it is issued?
Reports are prepared in line with RICS guidance and our internal procedures. We operate structured processes designed to ensure accuracy, consistency, and compliance before reports are finalised.
What if I have concerns about my survey?
We take client feedback seriously. Any concerns are reviewed promptly and professionally in accordance with our complaints handling procedure.
