How We Selected These Surveying Companies

Our team carefully considered the 10 best surveying companies in Essex by looking at their reviews. The companies with the highest number of reviews were chosen and included in our list. If the number of reviews is equal, we then consider the average rating.

Every review has been written by real Compare My Move customers. These customers have personal experiences of using the surveying companies reviewed. The overall ratings were based on the overall moving day experience, customer experience and value for the money.

All of our partners have passed our strict verification process, which involves:

  • Professional Company Checks: Every potential partner must prove they are a legitimate company. We always carry out verification and ID checks to ensure this is the case.
  • Online Presence: Compare My Move partners need to have an up-to-date website. Their correct contact details and location must be displayed on the site. We also accept an up-to-date profile on the RICS website.
  • Positive Company Reviews: We read real customer reviews of each company before we accept them as a partner. This helps us verify whether the company is providing a reliable and trusted service.
  • Regulations and Accreditations: Every surveyor offering Level 2 Surveys, Level 3 Surveys and Valuation Reports must be regulated by RICS. Surveyors offering Party Wall Surveys and Snagging Surveys can be regulated by either RICS or the RPSA.
  • Code of Practice: Our partners must abide by Compare My Move's 9-point Code of Practice. For example, partners should always contact customers within 48 hours of receiving a lead. This ensures all customers receive high-quality service.
