The people were friendly but we had a problem initially due to a conflict of interest that nobody could explain, which turned out not to be a conflict of interest, but caused stress and confusion when arranging the survey. Other than that the process was straightforward. The survey itself appears thorough but there are a lot of areas that cant be commented on. There were some discrepancies within the report but upon calling the surveyor he was friendly and helpful. The survey and report were completed within a week of booking - quick turn around time.

Camsure Homes were really efficient with our homebuyers survey and have made the process as first time buyers as stress free as possible. The survey was conducted the following week of booking and we received the report on 5 days later (this would have been sooner if there was not a bank holiday weekend). The report itself was thorough and easy to understand. We would definitely recommend Camsure Homes and use them in the future too!

A great company to deal with! At first, I chose them because they didn't start calling me five times a day, and I appreciate that. Since I reached them, everything went super fast. The report was ready the next day and was very professional, and answered all my questions. I received a call from the survey straight after he conducted a check. Highly recommend!

They responded to emails really quickly and were always friendly and helpful. The only part that would be useful would be if they could contact us on the day of the visit to confirm that everything went smoothly and they will be in touch, but thata??s being picky! Would definitely recommend.

Felt like the information was a bit too loose in some areas.
Miscommunication on the day meant the seller was not there the whole time and couldn't move boxes out of the way to reveal areas which were then marked down as a 3 - leaving me with less confidence.

We don't have a great deal of experience with property surveys or providers thereof but have to say that Camsure came back as the most competitively priced, they were prompt in their responses, and as far as we can tell our survey was comprehensive and detailed. Further, we spoke with our surveyor a few days after the survey and he was very forthcoming with additional detail and clarification, including sharing relevant photos, so overall we think they are excellent and well worth recommending (in fact, we believe some friends has now contracted Camsure for their survey following us sharing our experience with them!).

Survey went into a lot more detail than I anticipated. Which of course was a bonus! Customer service was spot on, actually advised us to go for a home buyers report instead of a full building report (saving us some money). They did say they can normally arrange a surveyor within 7-10 days although we had to wait 3 weeks. Not a problem though as this whole buying a house thing takes forever! Very satisfied with our report, very glad I chose camsure, thank you camsure!
Luton

Kiasten that I spoke to when booking the survey was extremely helpful, she fully explained the process to me and answered any questions I had. She also took care of arranging the survey with our estate agents so we didn't have to do this ourselves. Our surveyor Nansi Rose was also amazing - we had some specific concerns around ground stability that are not normally included in the RICS survey but Nansi took the time to comment on these in addition to our survey to help give us a better understanding of the situation. I couldn't recommend Camsure enough!

RICS Home Survey Level 2
The Homebuyers survey, now referred to as the RICS Home Survey Level 2, is recommended for traditionally constructed properties, usually, those built after 1900 although properties constructed prior to 1950 share similar traits to older properties and therefore a RICS Home Survey Level 3 may be more appropriate for those properties.
A RICS Home Survey Level 2 will help you make a reasoned and informed decision on whether or not to go ahead with buying the property, to take account of any major repairs or replacements the property needs and to consider what other advice to take before exchanging contracts.
Our findings are presented in a clear, easy to read report and if you are buying a property constructed in the last 60 years or so we consider this report to represent the best value for money because the construction techniques used are less likely to result in defects which require the same level of reporting as older ones and therefore paying for a RICS Home Survey Level 3 does not necessarily prove worthwhile.
RICS Home Survey Level 3
The RICS Home Survey Level 3, previously known as the full structural survey, is recommended for older properties (we advise those built during or prior to the 1930s) or where the property is in poor condition or has been significantly altered, or if the property was built using non-traditional methods. This is the most comprehensive survey that you can have and is designed to best address the sorts of defects typically found in older properties, including structural movement and wood-boring insect infestation.
You will be given a customised report which includes technical information on materials and construction, as well as details of the whole range of defects found and advice on the need for any further investigations and repairs and/or future maintenance necessary. If you are buying an older property, the extra level of detail can be helpful for you moving forward as it will be a source of information and advice that you can refer back to in respect of maintenance and repairs which you may undertake in due course.
Valuations
Camsure Homes are proud to also offer a RICS Residential Valuation to provide you with the true value of a property. Ideal to learn if the property you're buying is actually worth what it's marketed at, as well as being important to have one before you put your house up for sale.
Our valuations are carried out by RICS registered valuers to offer an impartial and comprehensive valuation of a property. It must be noted that this isn't a property survey and you should still get the relevant property survey to learn about a property's condition.
Snagging Survey
When purchasing a newer property such as new builds, snagging surveys are ideal as they highlight any changes that need to be made to the property. Your surveyor will inspect the interior and exterior of the property to determine whether there are any issues that could potentially cause problems in the long run.
While snagging surveys are not as in-depth as the RICS Level 2 or 3, they can provide crucial information as to the condition and longevity of the property.
