At Cowie Consulting we offer a blend of local expertise, comprehensive services, cutting-edge technology, and a dedication to client contentment. Our top-rated customer feedback and outstanding client satisfaction rate demonstrate our commitment to surpassing your property surveying requirements, not just meeting them.

Expertise in the local area: With our extensive experience in Darlington and the North East, we possess valuable insights into local market trends and environmental conditions. This knowledge enables us to provide custom-tailored advice and solutions for all types of properties, be it residential or commercial. This ensures that your investment or future home is guided by a deep understanding of the local area.

Customised services to suit your requirements: Our ability to serve both residential (homeowner surveys) and commercial properties, carry out comprehensive quinquennial surveys, and specialise in building conservation and listed buildings, guarantees that we have the expertise to meet all your property needs. This adaptability makes us your all-in-one solution for all your surveying requirements.

Innovative Drone Surveys: Drones allow us to access and inspect hard-to-reach areas like roofs and high structures efficiently and safely. This technology ensures a more comprehensive survey, identifying potential issues that might be missed in a traditional inspection.

Specialised reports & accurate valuations: Our targeted defect reports and precise insurance rebuild valuations provide a clear understanding of your property's condition and value. This information is crucial for making informed decisions, whether for maintenance, sale, or insurance purposes
