Premium Surveys and Valuations Across Nottingham and the East Midlands
At Bramble & Wagg, we’re not estate agents.
We’re independent Chartered Surveyors and Registered Valuers, offering professional RICS home surveys and property valuations across Nottingham, West Bridgford, Mapperley, Bingham, Loughborough and the wider East Midlands.
Whether you’re buying your forever home, managing a growing property portfolio, or navigating probate, Help to Buy redemption, or rent reviews, we deliver the clarity and confidence you need to move forward.
Built Different: A Modern Surveying Practice, Grounded in Expertise
Our business was built from the ground up – not bought, franchised, or packaged.
We’ve combined decades of hands-on experience with an in-depth understanding of local property markets to create a surveying practice that puts quality, transparency, and real value at the heart of everything we do.
When you choose Bramble & Wagg, you’re choosing:
- Tailored reports, not off-the-shelf copy and paste products.
- Expert, local advice, not generic call centres, remote offices and surveyors with limited understanding of the locale.
- And a Rolls Royce level of service, from the very first contact.
