What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Homebuyers commissioning Level 3 surveys, including work on grade listed buildings, form the core of the feedback for this Cambridge-based practice. Customers writing about their orders describe the reports as extremely detailed and thorough, with particular attention paid to areas of concern raised in advance. Several accounts note the speed of the process, from a quick appointment through to the survey report arriving promptly after the visit. Communication stands out as a recurring theme, with clients noting that calls are answered efficiently and that questions arising after the report are handled responsively.

The named staff member Elaine is singled out for her efficiency, and the admin team is described as organised from first contact onwards. Fair pricing comes up often, with the service described as good value and reasonably priced. Customers who have used the firm more than once for listed properties report consistently positive experiences, and the survey itself is credited with giving buyers confidence ahead of moving in. Tidiness and the thoroughness of the site visit are also noted, alongside a professional manner throughout the entire purchasing journey.

Everything was good. Arrived on time, investigated the issue and explained the causes. A knowledgeable gent and provided a written (email) report within a couple of days.

Quite disappointing experience. For a service that costs almost £1k called Full Structural Survey, we were expecting some in-depth insights about the property. Instead of we got a basic report that included phrases like: "the water appears to have been turned off" "The internal stopcock we believe is under the kitchen sink", and no attempt of turning the water on was made to do even basic check of the installation. The surveyor ignored additional questions that we had, and our request for additional (in our view reasonable and expected) checks were point blank refused. It's literally someone having a 1h (at most) walk in the property, looking at what's clearly visible, with no additional equipment, making comments that give 0 additional insights into the state of the property. I would be curious to see what level 2 or 1 survey of the same building would be, because it's hard to imagine what less information could have been given.

Highly Recommend. A massive thank you to the team who carried out a survey on our new home. They were timely, communicative and provided a thorough survey with all details that we required.

Very quick turnaround time to get an appointment, and a rapid time from the date of the survey to receiving the report. An excellent service and a thorough job. Very helpful and responsive when we had additional questions. Not moved into the house yet to find anything wrong not on the report, but the Level 3 survey seemed extremely detailed, so we will go in with confidence.

Very reasonably priced and excellent service. I also received a very detailed survey report back really quickly. Would definitely use again and would highly recommend to family and friends. Thank you

Exceptional prices for Level 3 RICS Full Building / Structural Survey - no stone left unturned and survey was easy to read and understand. Any questions we may have had, were quickly answered by the surveyor. Very highly recommended!

We have used Allcott Associates twice for level 3 surveys on grade listed buildings and the service has been excellent. Good communication from arranging the appointment to receiving the survey. Thank you for your work during this time of buying our property.
