Review:The price was competitive and they provided a very detailed report. Service was straight forward and they responded from initial enquiry very quickly. They took slightly longer than expected to finish the report, but I think this is simply due to the great amount of detail and length of the report. Very well done. If I wasn't already expecting to do up the property, this report would have given me a great insight into whether I would continue the purchase. Thanks.

Review:First-class - price was the most reasonable, and a local company to me. The call post-survey was detailed, and answered all my questions. The survey was comprehensive and included photos. Excellent.

Review:The survey is done professionally and promptly. My level 3 survey is quite thorough and has helped me to avoid getting into a property with a potential issue. Although they are not the cheapest quote I received, I feel this is the cost-effective option on the market.

Review:Excellent, highly detailed report followed up with a detailed conversation with the surveyor. I had a friend who is a surveyor who lives up north look at our report and he was impressed as a fellow professional by the thorough investigation and documentation provided.We thought we had found our dream house but after a full structural L3 survey we realised we'd have a 100k project that would take months and lots of stress to complete. Totally worth the money as this would have been a nightmare for us. We'll go back to the drawing board and search for something else and when we do find it Mirza at Sterlingworth will be the first person we speak to.

Review:As a company we was very happy with the service overall. The only problem we experienced was that we was promised the survey would be sent to us with in 5 working days of the inspection being done, i had to chase it for another week with receptionists telling me they couldn't get hold of any surveyors. When the survey was eventually emailed to us, the address was wrong on three pages. However this was quickly rectified after i flagged it up. So although we had a couple of issues, the staff that i spoke with were always very polite and as helpful as they could be.

Review:It was all very easy to arrange, pay for and results were recieved within the expected timeframe. They offered a reasonable quote (in comparison to others recieved), including things like photos and the chance to ask questions on the report if needed. We didn't actually ever speak to anyone, including the surveyor on the day - it was all via email - but maybe this is quite normal in this industry. Overall I'd recommend.

Review:Pretty much did as promised - paid for a survey and got one one the date estimated. Would have been nice if they had offered a call to review it instead they welcomed queries. Had to chase up to book a date.

Review:No I would not recomend this company to anyone else it took a week to send me the report and then finally i was sent the report through email.I then rung up the company and asked them when they will be sending me a hard copy of the report and was told that if i wanted a hard copy it would cost me 35 so I then went to my nearest stationay shop and got the copy that I printed off bound for 3.86Quite frankly I felt thatI was being ripped off and I would never use this company again or recomend them to anyone else

Dear Robert,Thank you for your review and am sorry you have a reason to complain. I have personally reviewed your file and cross-referenced the facts. I can confirm that our corporate policy states all reports having a turnaround time of 4-5 working days (Mon-Fri) from the date of inspection. Our Express Service, which is an optional extra on all of our reports, guarantees the completed report by close of business the following working day. I have noted on your booking form this option was not selected, therefore standard report delivery times would have applied. As such, I can confirm that the report was delivered within the stated timescale.Whilst we are unable to comment on the stance of other companies, we can only comment on our own position. Sterlingworth Surveyors Ltd is an environmentally conscious firm, and in our commitment towards a greener future, we deliver all reports electronically and only offer hard copies on request. This is a chargeable service to cover the cost for print, binding, and due to the sensitive nature of the document and your data, delivery by specialist courier.Should you have any further queries please get in touch.Kind Regards,London South West

Review:I don't really have comparison to other surveyors, but they did a good job. It wasn't clear for me how the process works and I had to chase them for some information but time of survey was reasonable. Survey has been received, comprehensive with only a couple of unclear items.

Review:They were the quickest to respond and by far the best quote as it turned out I went with them as they immediately sent over all the forms and advice so easy to proceed. They did the survey within the week they suggested (a week after appointing) snd sent through via email 3 working days after. Would recommend

If you’re buying a property that is in good condition, built using common materials and hasn’t had any major renovation work carried out, then you’ll need us to carry out a RICS Home Survey Level 2.
The level 2 survey will offer an examination of the condition of the property you want to buy, highlighting any hidden defects that you wouldn’t spot yourself. A property survey can often save you money in the long run, allowing you to renegotiate your original offer to cover costs of repair work.
RICS Home Survey Level 3
When you’re buying a property that is older, built with less common materials or has had major work done, you will need Sterlingworth Surveyors to undertake a RICS Home Survey Level 3. The level 3 survey is the most in-depth property survey you can have and will assess the building’s structure and condition.
The Home Survey Level 3 will be carried out by a professional and experienced RICS surveyor who will create a detailed but easy to read report of their findings. The report will give you a greater understanding of any repair work needed in the house so you can budget and plan for the future.
Valuations
Sterlingworth Surveyors also offers professional valuation services to provide an in-depth assessment of the value of the property. Whilst a valuation is not a comprehensive property survey, it's vital for some Help to Buy schemes and for applying for a mortgage. Our RICS registered valuers will inspect the property's condition and ongoing potential, proximity and locality to desirable amenities and general property identity. It will ensure you know exactly what you're purchasing and exactly what it's worth.
Valuation reports are typically suitable for any property type. However, it won't provide a thorough look at the structural condition of the building like the property surveys do, it's purely a valuation. You should still get the relevant property survey, especially if you identify any defects or issues.
