Review:I was worried about choosing a surveyor because prices can vary and I knew there was a few things we needed strong info about. Finding Graeme on this website was a Godsend - he is highly professional, going above and beyond with Customer Service, and the detail from his survey both on the day and in the report is very valuable. We’ve already begun acting on it. He left us with clarity on the condition of our house and what jobs should be priorities, and went through the list of questions I’d had for him one by one to make sure everything had been covered.
The report arrived within very good time and is set out in an easy to digest way. He also followed up to check if we had any further questions based on the report, and was very communicative beforehand.
He is certainly someone we recommend.Response:
Many thanks indeed for the five star review Kieran. We are really pleased to have been of service and glad you found the report thorough, professional and easy to follow. Thanks again.Blaenau Ffestiniog

Review:I am really happy with the service I received from Graeme. at GAR.
I was in a potential minefield naively falling in love with a house. Thank god for a structural survey!!
Graeme (Rich) was very Professional and easy to deal with and kindly answered my very many questions and specific queries about the property which he included in the report. (Which was over 120 pages long)
I am really happy with the very comprehensive report. which has way more useful information than I expected. The report brought to light many important things I had totally overlooked in buying a property.
Graeme called me after the visit to discuss his findings and the implications with me. He made it really easy to see the important things I need to think about which could influence my decision
I received great service a really great report and I feel I have received a great value service.
He really put in a lot of work for the money.
I have already spoken to my friends who are also in the market to buy a house soon. They will definitely be using GAR after my experience.
I would definitely recommend Mr Graeme Rich if GAR. illl be using him again. Very happy I made this choice.Response:
Many thanks indeed for the fantastic review Sara. We really appreciate you taking the time to provide us with the feedback and we are pleased to have been of service.
Areas Covered
Homebuyer Report
If you’re buying a property that is fairly modern and built using common materials, a homebuyers survey will be best suited for you. Our homebuyers survey will be carried out by a RICS chartered surveyor who will thoroughly assess the property’s condition, looking for any hidden defects.
It’s important to get a property survey done when buying a house or flat as it will reveal any expensive repair work that you’d only discover later down the line. You can either use bad survey results to pull out of buying the house or to re-negotiate your offer.
Building Survey
If the property you’re buying is an older property made using uncommon or unique building materials, you will need our RICS building survey. The building survey is the most in-depth survey as it looks at the property’s structure and condition, searching behind furniture and in cupboards.
Rest assured, we have carried out many building surveys on a variety of property types in the local area so we have invaluable knowledge that we share on each survey and in each report.
