What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Level 3 surveys for buyers in Newcastle upon Tyne sit at the heart of the feedback for this practice, whose reports are consistently described as detailed and thorough. Alan is the staff member named most frequently, praised for making himself available before, during and after the work, talking clients through findings by phone and giving advice that has on occasion prompted a buyer to withdraw an offer over structural concerns. Mellissa draws similar praise for swift replies to messages and clear explanations of the process. Several accounts note that quotes compare well with what other firms charge for the same depth of inspection, and that the finished document arrives about a week after the visit.

The handling of problems and queries after delivery is a point that comes up often, with follow-up conversations singled out as helpful rather than rushed. First-time buyers appear among those commenting, describing the experience as straightforward and reassuring during a potentially stressful purchase. The independent, regional character of the business is mentioned approvingly, as is the personal touch that larger platforms are said to lack. Party wall instructions feature among the work described, alongside pre-purchase surveys.

Got a Level 3 survey done for my first property and it was brilliant! Very thorough, and an amazing price compared to every where else. After the survey was complete, it took about a week for the report to come back. Thank you so much! 🩷

I can highly recommend AJ Walton Surveying Ltd. Alan was a great help before, during and afterwards and as a result will be my first call the next time I need a surveyor.

Excellent service from an independent north east business. Everything wrapped up quickly, efficiently and professionally but with a personal touch the national firms and platforms don't provide

Couldn’t have had a better experience with AJ Walton! We requested a survey for a house we were buying last month. Mellissa was very quick at replying to my emails and giving me information over the phone. We had the report back within a week and I immediately rang Alan to discuss in more detail. He gave me lots of great advice which resulted in me withdrawing my offer from the property (due to structural concerns). We have placed an offer on another property and will be using Alan’s services again! Would highly recommend!

I’ve used AJ Walton twice now and can’t fault the service. They are very reasonably priced and provide extremely detailed reports. Alan has always been happy to jump on calls to talk through any of the findings, which is incredibly helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend them.

If I could give more stars, I would! What a brilliant service from AJ Walton Surveying from start to finish. Melissa was available at all times to get the survey booked in and answer any questions. The survey was arranged within a week, and I received the report the week after. The report was extremely thorough, with Alan providing as much detail as possible. He was also available for follow-up calls to discuss any queries. Alan was friendly, informative, and gave me excellent advice, talking me through the pros and cons of a BISF house. For the cost and the quality of service, it’s outstanding. I would definitely use them again!

Recently got a RICS level 3 survey which was sent out very quickly. I had many questions afterwards and Alan was super helpful with the queries I had. Would recommend.
