Our team prepares these reports under RICS regulation from our Hampshire office, with BRE 209 (2022) as the working reference and offices in London, Wickford, and Hampshire supporting wider coverage. The practice has been delivering daylight and sunlight reports across the South Coast and East of England since 2004. Where works cross a shared boundary, party wall services sit alongside the daylight piece.
Vertical Sky Component covers light to windows. Annual Probable Sunlight Hours covers sunlight to habitable rooms with relevant orientation. Overshadowing analysis on amenity space tests the 21 March sun position. Sunpath studies sit alongside where seasonal access matters, and trees within the impact zone are factored in where they materially affect the outcome of the assessment.
A typical turnaround is 2 to 3 weeks from instruction. Calls are answered by a qualified surveyor, and a free initial assessment covers scope before any fee is set. This is a bespoke surveying service shaped to each scheme.
BRE 209 reference values are guidance, not pass or fail. Reports are turned around in 2 to 3 weeks. The practice has been delivering daylight and sunlight reports across the South Coast since 2004, and the free initial assessment is the way in for borderline cases or for early advice on scope.
