Design and the process of building have been part of my life since my teenage years. Work and pleasure have come together, it's more of a vocational pastime. Reading university provided the most enjoyable and relevant period of study post degree, with continuing learning for staff and myself seen as essential, to learn new ideas and to refresh old skills. People and how they function in and around buildings are of a continuing interest and enjoyment to me. Darren joined Dolman as a Graduate Building Surveyor in 1996 and became a Partner in 2012.

We carry out building surveys throughout Wiltshire and surrounding Counties. Our service covers both domestic and commercial surveys, typically as part of a property purchase process or one-off defect analysis. As a RICS regulated company you can be assured of a high-quality service, which we also back up with the many years of experience held by our skilled team. The Survey Report does not normally include advice relating to the property value. A building survey involves a comprehensive inspection of the property.
