Review:An very comprehensive report and the discussion afterwards helped me understand the issues and relative importance of the things uncovered by the report. I felt very well informed to make decisions about the property.

Review:Managed to make a survey appointment within 10 days, which during the mad rush of stamp duty holiday was a relief. Andrew was very thorough, and more than happy to talk through our initial concerns both before and after he had carried the survey out. Our Home buyers report was detailed and very easy to read. I woudl not hesitate in recommending him to any one.
