About Us
We founded Acton & Co to bring our clients clarity, confidence, and genuine care through honest, timely and people-focused advice.
Why We Exist
We blend modern, data-informed thinking with a personal, hands-on approach that makes clients feel understood and supported. Our role is to take the pressure off – to lead, to solve, and to stand alongside our clients so they never navigate property challenges alone.
As the built environment evolves, so do we. We adopt smarter tools and emerging technologies where they add value, while keeping our advice grounded, human and independent. This approach allows us to offer a fresh, modern perspective on surveying, practical in delivery and personal in service, helping clients make decisions with clarity and confidence
We bring together modern insight and a practical hands-on approach to support clients throughout the property lifecycle. We take on the pressure, provide direction, and solve problems, so our clients never face property challenges on their own
Our Approach
Discover
We begin by taking the time to understand the project, the property, and the people involved. Through clear conversations, careful inspection, and a curiosity-led mindset, we build a full picture of what matters most to our clients and what challenges or opportunities stand ahead
Advise
With the right insight established, we provide honest, informed advice that is practical, timely, and grounded in experience. Our role is to bring clarity to the complex—interpreting risk, guiding decisions, and shaping strategies that support confident outcomes.
Deliver
We take ownership of the process, leading teams, coordinating stakeholders, and managing detail to ensure the project moves forward with structure and oversight. Our focus is on reducing pressure for our clients and delivering results with professionalism, care, and accountability.

Acton & Co
Founder & Director
Jacob Acton
Our Leadership
We founded this company because we felt surveying could be done differently. Clients deserve clarity, genuine care, and a partner who’s willing to get hands-on and guide them through the process, not just issue a report and walk away. After years working across major London firms, I saw the need for a more personal, honest, and forward-thinking approach. That’s what Acton & Co was built to deliver: expert advice, modern tools, and a team that truly supports clients from first conversation to final outcome.
Our firm reflects that vision — a practice where expertise is hands-on, advice is honest, and clients feel supported from first conversation to final outcome.
