Salary for a Quantity Surveyor

Career and Remuneration


The typical salary of a quantity surveyor depends largely on the level of experience of the individual and the sector or region they are working in. A 2010 survey of the construction and built environment industry showed that the average annual salary for a quantity surveyor in the UK is £38,121. The average salary varies depending on experience, those with between 3 and 6 years’ experience earn on average £25,791, whereas those with 20 or more years, £43,514.00.

There are many quantity surveyors who run their own business. For example, Chanada Consultants Inc. in Ontario, Canada provide a range of services including quantity surveying, estimating, cost consulting, mortgage monitoring and life-cycle costing. In recent years, many quantity surveying companies have become more recognized because they are a critical link between trade contractors, construction companies, builders and financiers. They monitor the costs and evaluate the progress of building projects for their clients in the financing and construction industries. Therefore, the salary of self-employed quantity surveyors will vary depending on the scope and location of the projects and their hourly rate.

  1. These are roles often undertaken by building surveyors and quantity surveyors and, in my view, could be considered “surveying work”.
