Review:We cannot fault the service we received at all! Despite all slots being filled in the run up to Christmas, Mr Routledge very kindly gave up his Saturday morning to conduct our survey. We then received a very detailed and thorough report the Monday evening following the survey. The whole process from instruction to report was completed within 7 days. We would highly recommend Routledge & Routledge Property Surveying Ltd as they provided an excellent service in an extremely timely manner. Thank you

Review:Routledge & Routledge provided comprehensively detailed quote and provided example reports for level 2 and level 3 surveys and as a result of the keen pricing I opted for the full level 3 survey. The survey was quickly arranged. A bullet point summary of the findings by email arrived soon after the survey had concluded followed by a meticulously detailed 127 page report just 2 days later. I couldn't have been more impressed. Communications throughout were prompt, professional and courteous. I would have no hesitation in recommending the services of Routledge & Routledge.

Review:I have instructed Property Surveys Devon to complete Level 3 Building Survey on one of the properties I am interested in purchasing. The report I have received was very in-depth and self-explanatory. Phil did a great job by thoroughly investigating the property, including a lot of pictures in his report and providing a lot of in-depth explanations on different areas. Annie always answered my emails swiftly and was most helpful when I had any queries. The survey took place on Wednesday and the full report was emailed to me on Saturday, I did not expect this at all considering it was a Bank Holiday weekend. I am very pleased with work that has been carried out by Phil, Annie and Property Surveys Devon.

Review:Moving for the first time in 34 years and to a new area I thought a survey was needed, especialy as it takes us 2 hours to reach the property. Prior to the survey the communications were very good and the report turned up in my in-box very promptly. He spotted things that my untrained eye wouldnt so I consider it money well spent, especially as i was previously quoted considerably more ona survey for another property we were considering. Would not hesitate to recommend Phil and his company to anyone!

RICS Home Survey Level 2
You will need us to carry out our RICS Home Survey Level 2, also called a home buyers report, if the house you’re buying is modern and in good condition. One of our RICS regulated chartered surveyors will carry out an examination of the house to find any defects or damage that isn’t easy to spot.
We will be very thorough with our survey and aim to complete the survey and our easy to understand report within 1-2 days. The report will include areas of concern and hidden damage within the property.
We have carried out hundreds of level 2 surveys over the years, giving us in-depth knowledge and skills of surveying a variety of property types.
RICS Home Survey Level 3
When you’re buying an older property or listed building that was built using unusual or unique building materials, you will need to get our RICS building survey. Our RICS Home Survey Level 3 will be the most comprehensive and in-depth survey that we offer and it'll be carried out by our expert building surveyors.
The building survey will consist of a thorough examination of the property’s interior and exterior, assessing the structure and condition of the property. We could uncover major hidden defects that could save you from spending thousands on repairs.
Our level 3 survey will be conducted by a RICS regulated chartered surveyor with years of experience carrying out surveys.
Snagging Survey
Routledge & Routledge Property Surveying Ltd can assist you if you’re moving to a new property. While new properties historically don’t have any major issues, it’s always important to have a professional surveyor check the property.
These checks can be carried out via a snagging survey. Our team will carry out a visual inspection of the internal and external areas of the property. The report we provide will include all our findings, and any suggestions that may need to be implemented.
