Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0Industry affiliation logo 1Industry affiliation logo 2

For well over a century Petty Son and Prestwich has had a long and successful history in Wanstead and the surrounding area. The firm was founded in Leytonstone in 1908 by C. Petty, a locally renowned builder, under the style of Petty & Son. The company was then run by his son Charles, a chartered surveyor.

Petty and Son quickly grew in both size and reputation and was soon to become Petty Son & Prestwich when Harry Prestwich entered the partnership, offering services in surveying, estate agency and auctioneering. The Wanstead Office was opened in 1912.

Our continued success stems from reputation and recommendation and through this, and good old fashioned hard work, tailor-made services to all our clients, both new and established.
