What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Building surveys, quantity surveying and homebuyer reports are the services that customers most often describe in feedback for this Brighton practice. Sam Alderson is named repeatedly, with reviewers highlighting his willingness to explain the different survey levels before a booking is made and his availability afterwards to talk through particular findings. More than one customer describes the reports as thorough and comprehensive, illustrated with photographs of the issues raised, and note that the work was completed within the timescale originally quoted. Speed and responsiveness come up often, including one instance where the team fitted a job into a cancellation slot so that a purchase could move forward quickly.

Clear communication runs through the accounts, from initial enquiries and booking through to the delivery of the final document, and the detail provided on urgent tasks before and after purchase is mentioned as giving buyers confidence to proceed. Reviewers also refer to straightforward dealings with the company and to the value offered by the service. The recurring picture is of an efficient, helpful team producing detailed survey work on residential purchases, with the personal involvement of Sam Alderson a point that comes up frequently across the accounts.
