Excellent service from first phone call to final report, the survey was explained in easy to understand language, which helped to put my mind at rest, would definitely recommend to anyone .

Terence Mair - January 2019

Superb service from Structural surveys. Report was carried out, written up and returned for scrutiny within 24 hours. Would definitely use again.

John Usher - February 2021

Needed to move quickly on a recent purchase. Structural Surveys arranged a structural inspection the next day and a report the day after. In addition Structural Surveys provided a competitive quote (in line with two other firms). The report was substantive and informed how we move forward with the purchase. Excellent work, appreciated Jane Millers helpful support and were very impressed by the turnaround. Would have no hesitation in recommending Structural Surveys and would like use on next project.

All I can say is a big thank you! This has been a fantastic collaboration by all concerned. It's all happened quickly as well. We first visited the Hospice in July when, ironically, it was raining during the long dry spell we had. I wasn't sure at that time whether the building could be retained or would need complete renewal, and the Hospice advised that they'd been trying to fix it for many years. Now it's done and I know the Hospice is very grateful. You have made my life here easier as well, by acting in such a professional manner. - Joe Cartwright BSc MRICS (Senior Projects Coordinator for CRASH)

CRASH Charity - December 2018

I have had three different surveys done over the years by different firms and this is without a doubt the most thorough and professional of them all. I can only say positive things about the service.

Colin Miller - October 2020

I would highly recommend the use of Structural Surveys. From my initial query right up to the issuing of the Structural Report their customer service and professionalism was second to none. Andrew explained the report to myself in clear and understandable terms. The written report was issued extremely quickly the following day. Many thanks to Jane and Andrew for your assistance.

Liam Barrett - September 2019

Very professional on work carried out. The evaluation was thorough.

Angela Bassnett - December 2018

Great service, they were quick to book us in and carried out the survey as stated. The survey was useful and informative. I intend to use their services again in the future

Sophia Tedaldi - March 2021

We commissioned Structural Surveys to carry out a Specific Defect Survey for our retail store. We needed the survey in a hurry as we were closing in on an important transaction. We chose Structural Surveys because they responded to our needs promptly, were able to answer all our questions, organize the appointment, conduct the survey and submit their report within 72 hours. The report was thorough and professional. We would use them again

Kabra Developments Ltd - September 2020

Promptness of response : Structural surveys are very prompt in responding to all emails I sent and were dealt with accordingly. Quality of service : Quality of service I could not fault. And to receive the structural report in 24hrs was fantastic. Value for money : I didn't really look elsewhere I read their reviews and thought these were the company I would go for.And I am pleased that I did. Professionalism : Very Professional from start to finish yet polite and very helpful.
