Review:They were exceptional, there service was speedy and they were so quick at getting back to us with any queries we had. The report was detailed enough for us to then be able to rectify works and was very informative with all the links to other information. The only thing was that the report is submitted online and not in pdf format which is a bit tricky to print or save down to my pc. Other than that I'm extremely happy with their service and turnaround. Thank-you and the team for being great. I would highly recommend.

Review:Hard to get in touch with them once the survey is booked in, and Im still waiting for a call back to discuss the survey. The survey itself was well written.

Review:Terrible, at the last minute was advised that the survey I selected wasn't sufficient and needed to upgrade. Given I didn't have a choice as there was a 2 / 3 week wait with others I was left with no choice but to pay extra. They advised me it would take a full day.Lunchtime on the day I get a call from the estate agent that they still haven't arrived and they were meant to do a full day of surveying. Paid for valuation and wasn't given one in the report. I emailed them twice providing feedback and a chance to rectify and they have ignored both emails.MY ADVICE STAY CLEAR...

Review:I paid for a level 3 report expecting it to be in-depth and detailed similar to other examples I have seen from other companies. I had to chase up the company multiple times due to deadlines they missed for me to receive the report. After I received the report I had questions that the Director Hamza said he would call me back and resolve. I texted him multiple times too and he has not come back with resolutions. The level 3 report also did not contain a valuation of the property and when I asked I was told it would be provided but wasn't. The report itself was also lacklustre and only approximately 40 pages with a light paragraph on each point. I have seen examples of level 2 reports that are more detailed. Lastly, the level 3 report does not hold the RCIS traffic light system contained in the level 2 reports. When I asked about this, I was told that due to level 3 reports being more detailed not all of them have this. Turns out after speaking to other Surveying companies, my solicitors and agents, this is not the case. All in all, I paid over 500 for a bad taste in my mouth. Would not recommend and I am currently thinking of seeking legal action against this company.

Review:The caller was supposed to get back to me after finding out whether my requested time frame (surveying within 3 days) can be met. He didn't call back, but arranged without my agreement a viewing with the estate agents. Instead of the promised 3 days it was done on day 6. By the time the report had been compiled another week had passed. With the landlord breathing down my neck I was not happy with the progress of things.

More InformationRICS Home Level 2 Survey
The RICS Home Level 2 Survey, also known as a HomeBuyers Report, is the most popular survey type. Best suited for newer properties and homes with standard construction, it includes a detailed report of the property they want to buy. The survey uses a simplistic method to describe the condition of the property, making it clear which areas are of concern. It will cover the assessment of the main features of the property including the roof, electrics, and exterior of the building.
Your surveyor will inspect the interior and exterior of the property and look into the history and background of the property. This is to provide as much information as possible, so you can have confidence in your transaction.
RICS Home Level 3 Survey
The RICS Home Level 3 Survey, also known as the Building Survey, is the most comprehensive survey option. Suitable for all property types, it is ideal for older properties and homes with non-standard construction. It is far more extensive in detail and inspection, as it also includes inspections of places that are difficult to access.
Like the Homebuyers Report, the report is completed according to a traffic light system, meaning that any issues will be clear to see. Your surveyor will also include additional information on any issues including advice on reparations and an estimated cost. This allows you to determine whether you wish to proceed with the transaction, withdraw altogether, or renegotiate your offer.
