About Us

Price Whitehead - Independent Chartered Surveyors

Welcome to Price Whitehead, an independent firm of Chartered Surveyors. With a history dating back to 1997, we have steadily grown from a one-person operation into a flourishing team of ten dedicated professionals. 

Situated in the heart of rural Kent, our unique offices are located within an enchanting converted Oast, which is nestled on a picturesque farm. This setting allows us to combine the charm of our 3rd generation family-run farm, with our expertise in serving clients throughout Kent and East Sussex

At Price Whitehead, one of our defining qualities is our focus on sustainability, as we believe that sustainable design practices are crucial for the future. Over the last 20 years we have built a reputation for offering innovative and eco-friendly solutions. Our designs prioritise the responsible use of resources, and the minimization of environmental impact, which is achieved through the use of renewable energy and water catchment.

Our vision encompasses growth, creativity, and a passion for the built, historic, and natural environments. Our mission centres around the belief that we all share a responsibility for our surroundings. 

Join Our Team

A comprehensive offering

Our comprehensive range of services include design and architecture, planning and surveying covering all of Kent and East Sussex. Being farmers ourselves, our true expertise lies in rural and agricultural building design. We are able to offer experience and knowledge as farmers, that we believe sets us apart from our competition. However, we also have extensive experience in residential projects. Regardless of the project’s scope or complexity, we are committed to delivering exceptional customer service. We strike the perfect balance between being big enough to handle diverse projects, yet small enough to genuinely care about each and every client and project we undertake. Our professional and enthusiastic team have a deep understanding of local market dynamics and provide tailored solutions that meet your specific needs.

We invite you to explore our website and discover more about our services, team, and the unique blend of rural tranquillity and expertise that sets us apart. Whether you are a homeowner, landlord, investor, or developer, we are here to assist you in achieving your land and property goals. 

Thank you for choosing Price Whitehead. We look forward to working with you and being a trusted partner in your property endeavours throughout Kent and East Sussex.
