Madeleys Chartered Surveyors in short

Madeleys Chartered Surveyors is a Much Wenlock practice advising estates, farmers, landlords and rural property owners [1]. One office covers tenancy law, compensation, planning, grants and valuations, with a named team and a free consultation offer [1] [2]. An active limited company has stood behind the practice for well over a decade, and the firm holds an RICS register listing [3] [4].

Madeleys Chartered Surveyors carries a 5 out of 5 Google rating from three reviews [5]. That is a tiny base, so it says almost nothing either way; our view of the firm rests on its rural spread and its checkable record instead. Few reviews does not mean poor work.

What counts against Madeleys Chartered Surveyors is openness on money: the site publishes no fees, no VAT position and no insurance details [1].

Our verdict

Our judgement: Madeleys suits you if your brief is rural — a farm, an estate or agricultural land — rather than a standard house purchase [1] [2]. The RICS listing and the 2010 company record support that picture, with three top-mark reviews behind it [3] [4] [5]. Published fees and insurance details are absent.

Questions about Madeleys Chartered Surveyors

On the evidence, yes for rural briefs: a Much Wenlock team covering tenancy, compensation, planning, grants and valuations, an RICS register listing, and a company record stretching back well over a decade [1] [2] [4]. Its three Google reviews all award top marks, but that base is tiny. Judge the advisers on the consultation.

Yes. The firm holds an RICS register listing for its Much Wenlock office, checked 4 September 2026, and describes itself as Rural Chartered Surveyors on its own website [1] [4]. Check the register listing against the name on your instruction letter before you go further.

What does Madeleys Chartered Surveyors charge?

It publishes no fee scale, rates or VAT position; the site offers a free consultation by phone instead of prices [1]. Rural fees turn on the brief, so your written terms do the talking. Ask for the fee basis, the VAT position and the scope of advice before you instruct.
