What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Residential purchases and sales in the Thame area form the backdrop to most of the feedback left for this chartered surveying practice, and the reports themselves are what customers return to again and again. Full building surveys and pre-purchase surveys are described as thorough, accurate and straightforward to follow, covering every aspect requested and giving buyers the confidence to proceed. A recurring theme is the communication around the inspection: questions sent by email or phone are answered quickly and fully, quotes arrive promptly, and realistic timescales are set, with one survey brought forward by a week.

Named members of staff, including Andrew, Zoe, Louise and Charles Light, are praised for their patience, responsiveness and readiness to help with property plans and follow-up queries long after the inspection has finished. The readability of the finished document is singled out, with customers valuing a clear style over densely worded standard reports, and the pricing is described as cheaper than comparable quotes. Verbal feedback ahead of the written report, and the speed with which completed surveys are returned, also feature in accounts.

Time wasters. Sought out a survey - was told it could be done - emailed multiple times to chase a date - then 6 days later, told they were too busy. Time wasters.

Excellent communication. Especially from Zoe who was extremely helpful and always super quick to respond. She set our expectations for a realistic date and provided a quote. We were super impressed when this date was brought earlier by a week. The communication after the survey was really helpful especially for a first time buyer.The report was thorough and easy to understand. We wouldn't hesitate to use Andrews Eades again and would recommend them to others as well.

I cannot recommend Charles Light at Andrews Eades Ltd Chartered Surveyors highly enough. During the difficult process of selling a house, Charles was the one true highlight. I needed property plans amending, and his service was nothing short of exceptional. From the outset, Charles went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled quickly and efficiently. No query was too small—he was always patient, thorough, and incredibly responsive. His expertise and willingness to assist made what could have been a stressful experience so much easier. Charles even took the time for a site visit to ensure everything was perfect. The speed of his service was remarkable, and his attention to detail was second to none. In a process filled with challenges, Charles stood out for his professionalism, efficiency, and unwavering support. If you need surveying services, look no further—Charles Light is simply outstanding.

Wonderful service, from start to finish. We had a few questions once the survey had been done and Andrew was so very helpful. We would certainly recommend them.

We had a brilliant, very readable and genuinely helpful report from Andrew. In a world where standard RICS reports are filled with impenetrable, pre-populated paragraphs and excessive cautions designed to minimise legal risk rather than give useful information, this was such a breath a fresh air. Very grateful people like Andrew are around to produce products that still prioritize usefulness over defensiveness!

We got in contact with Andrews Eades Ltd and just in a week we had a survey booked and done. Extremely simple process. Staff was approachable and helpful. Report was sent to us within a few days after the survey was done. Definitely would use their service again.

Very happy indeed with our full house survey before a purchase. Much cheaper than other quotes. Comprehensive report. Reported on all aspects I requested. Good communication. Thanks.
