Who Are JMR Surveys?
JMR Surveys is a trading name of J M Rees Surveying Ltd (Company number 17043922), an independent residential property surveying company based in Winchester, Hampshire. We provide RICS-standard surveys and valuations to homebuyers, homeowners and lenders across Winchester and the surrounding areas.
As an independent firm, we have no ties to estate agents, mortgage lenders or developers. Every report we produce is written solely in the interests of our client - giving you honest, unbiased information about the property you are buying.
Our reports are written in plain English, clearly structured and designed to give you the information you actually need - not pages of legal disclaimers. We believe a good survey should help you make a confident decision, not leave you more confused than when you started.

We explain our findings in plain terms and are available to answer questions after your report is delivered.

We focus on what matters - highlighting issues that could affect your decision or the cost of the purchase.

Winchester and Hampshire knowledge built over years of surveying in the area - understanding local property types, construction methods and common issues.
