Knott Brothers: Building Trust, One Survey at a Time

Adam Warren • 10 July 2025

When it comes to property surveys, trust is everything. Whether you're purchasing a century-old cottage or a brand-new build, you need reliable advice from experts who know what to look for—and who care about getting it right. At Knott Brothers, every survey should do more than just tick boxes. It should empower our clients to make informed, confident decisions. That’s why trust isn’t just something we talk about—it’s something we earn, one survey at a time.

Accredited, Qualified and Independent

Every member of our team is individually accredited by RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) or RPSA (Residential Property Surveyors Association). That means when you choose Knott Brothers, you’re getting a qualified professional who adheres to strict codes of conduct and delivers reports to recognised industry standards.

Clear, Honest Reporting

We pride ourselves on transparency. Whether it’s a Level 2 Home Survey, a more detailed Level 3 Survey, or an Accredited Snagging Survey for your new build home, our reports are designed to be easy to read and act upon. You won’t find confusing jargon or vague language — just clear insights, red-amber-green risk ratings, and helpful advice on what to do next.

Fast Turnaround, No Compromises

Time is often critical in the property process, which is why we deliver survey reports within 24 hours. But speed never comes at the cost of quality. Our process is structured, efficient, and powered by modern technology, which enables our surveyors to produce high-quality reports quickly and accurately.

Trusted by Homeowners Across Leicestershire and Beyond

Our clients consistently rate us five stars on platforms like Trustpilot and Google Reviews. They value our prompt responses, expert advice, and honest approach. Whether you’re buying your first home or managing a portfolio, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.

“Knott Brothers gave us one of the best quotes, had the quickest replies and were the most helpful when advising us on the right survey. The process was very smooth from start to finish.” – Mafalda Lopes, Google Review.

  • Specialist in both RICS Surveys and Accredited Snagging Surveys
  • Independent and impartial advice
  • Rapid 24-hour report delivery
  • Transparent pricing and no hidden fees

Our Promise to You

We understand the trust you place in us when you book a survey. That’s why we approach every job with diligence, attention to detail, and a genuine desire to help. We don’t just inspect properties — we protect peace of mind. If you're looking for a surveying team that values professionalism, honesty, and exceptional service, we’re ready when you are.
