Ranked 6 of 9 in Party wall surveyors in Telford
Best for: building surveying with party wall services

Record Associates in short
Record Associates is a chartered building surveying and project management practice with Shrewsbury and Telford phone lines, naming Party Walls among services such as dilapidations, defects diagnosis and contract administration. Our verdict is that it suits owners whose party wall matter sits inside wider building work. An active limited company and an RICS register listing sit behind the name.
Reviews are the gap: no Google reviews are on record for the practice, so this review leans on the register listing, the company record and the enquiry response instead. The site offers a named email contact and enquiry routes, and the service menu carries the only direct party wall signal in this round outside the leader.
What else counts against Record Associates is pricing silence: no fee scale, rates, insurance details or VAT position are published. For a firm that suits complex briefs, that means the first enquiry matters more than it should. The record is credible but thin.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Record suits you if your job centres on building surveying services including party wall matters, handled by an RICS-listed practice with a company record running to 2012 [1] [2] [3]. The gaps are evidence: no reviews exist, and no fees, insurance details or VAT terms are published [1].
