Elmbridge Borough Council remains under no overall control despite Conservative Party gains.
One seat in each ward was up for grabs when voters went to the polls on May 3.
Conservative gains in Walton Central, Esher, Molesey East and Hersham Village (against a Liberal Democrat gain in Weybridge Riverside) mean the Lib Dems and residents associations have 24 councillors in total - a figure now matched by the Tories.
The Conservative Party won 10, the Liberal Democrats 3, and Molesey Residents' Association, Hinchley Wood/Weston Green Residents' Association and Thames Ditton/Weston Green Residents' Association won one apiece.
Thames Ditton was held by the Liberal Democrats by just eight votes.
Vote shares were as follows:
Conservatives - 46.1 per cent
Liberal Democrats - 16.1 per cent
Labour Party - 10.6 per cent
Molesey Residents' Association - 5.7 per cent
Hinchley Wood/Weston Green Residents' Association - 4.8 per cent
