What we usually see at survey
Georgian and Regency townhouses around the Priory, Edwardian and inter-war seafront villas at Highcliffe and Mudeford, plus modern harbourside apartments at Stanpit and Bridge Street.
Audience: PBSA operators, university estates and student HMO landlords running summer turnaround.
Where else we work this week
Priory conservation area and Mudeford Quay need low-impact welfare setups; airport-perimeter business-park work requires pre-cleared BOH security access.
