David Buchanan has been a Chartered Building Surveyor since 1993 and set up his own Building Surveying Practice in 2000. This specialist experience complemented the core building surveying duties undertaken by David: RICS Homebuyer Reports, Building Survey reports, and acting as a Party Wall Surveyor. A Chartered Building Surveyor is also trained to undertake architectural services, comprising the refurbishment and extension of buildings, and David has developed the architectural side of his business to offer a full range of architectural services, from the design stage through to completion. On a personal level, David likes to stay active, and frequently gets on his road or mountain bike, or jumps into a cold lake for a swim, or puts on his running shoes to go for a jog (the pace is too slow to call it a run, sorry), and sometimes puts all three activities together. Surfing and skiing are also attempted now and again. Basically, David likes being outside!
