Honouring Piers Street: A Lifetime in Surveying At the end of March, Sussex Surveyors marked the retirement of Partner Piers Street, who concluded an exceptional career spanning nearly six decades in the surveying profession. Beginning his career
Monthly News
in 1967 with his first
valuation report, Piers has since advised
on an extraordinary
range of properties and client matters. While the precise number of surveys he has undertaken is impossible to
quantify, his depth of experience and contribution to the profession are
beyond question. Aptly named, Piers
Street has spent a lifetime quite literally looking down streets of properties
across Brighton and the South Coast.

A third-generation surveyor, Piers
started his professional life in his family’s London office, developing an early and
enduring understanding of property. He went on to build extensive experience across London, North Norfolk and
Sussex, working across both residential and commercial sectors. Qualifying as
a Valuer in 1978, he earned a reputation for delivering clear, balanced and dependable advice.
Clients valued not only his technical expertise but also his approach.
Piers embodied a traditional sense of
professionalism, courtesy and integrity. Testimonials frequently highlight his
calm, patient manner, particularly when supporting clients navigating complex
or distressing property matters. He took the time to explain issues clearly and thoughtfully, never losing sight of the human side of his work.
Piers joined Sussex Surveyors in 1997, based in the firm’s Hove office, and
became a Partner, playing a significant
role in shaping its growth and reputation.
