What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Cambridge buyers repeatedly turn to Hectors House Surveys for building surveys, Level 2 home buyer surveys and property valuation advice, and the feedback is consistently warm. Customers writing about their orders describe the reports as detailed, clear and easy to read, with findings set out plainly and accompanied by recommendations that prove genuinely useful when weighing up a purchase.

Jamie Middleditch is named again and again for his patience in answering questions, his willingness to talk through issues found on site, and the reassurance he offers first-time buyers unsure what to expect. Richard receives similar praise for prompt communication, thorough inspection work and explaining technical points in accessible language. A detail many reviews return to is reliability: surveys are booked quickly, carried out when promised, and written reports follow within days.

Reviewers also mention fair pricing compared with other quotes obtained, the helpfulness of staff throughout the process, and the confidence that nothing was overlooked during the inspection. The professionalism and depth of local knowledge shown by the team are cited as reasons customers would return for future house purchases and pass the name on to family, friends and colleagues. Level 2 surveys and building surveys on residential property remain the work most often described.

We reached out to Richard for a Level 2 survey on our new house, and he was absolutely fantastic. He is extremely knowledgeable and easily contactable, answering all of our queries and going out of his way to ensure we were comfortable and well informed throughout the process. We highly recommend him and would go back to him in future. Thank you Richard.

I recently had a level 2 home buyers survey completed and dealt with Richard from start to finish. He has been very helpful with easy to understand information and prompt communication keeping me up to date with things. The home survey was very thorough and has helped me going forward with my house purchase. From comparing lots of companies the pricing was fair and the service was great. Highly recommend hectors house surveys and thanks again to Richard.

I would highly recommend Jamie to anyone who is searching for a surveyor. He has been enormously helpful and has great knowledge of the Cambridge and surrounding areas. His expertise can not be understated and his professionalism is second-to-none.

Jamie is an absolute star. Professional, friendly, helpful, and responsive every step of the way. I'll only be using him going forward, and recommending him to people around me. The survey and the report along with it was great and very valuable - Jamie discovered all sorts of issues, some larger, some smaller, but it was obvious from the level of detail and documentation that no corners were cut when he was doing the survey. All documented with many photographs. Before even writing up the report, he spent time with me on the phone walking me through his findings to get me the information as soon as possible. I think the over-and-above was also the support with understanding and dealing with the issues discovered in the survey. I was a first-time buyer, didn't really know how to even start addressing the issues, and that's where Jamie also helped us out in a huge way laying out our options on what we could do about various issues. All while being transparent about what he knows for sure vs. things that are just his opinions. I'm convinced on top of just providing a service Jamie also actually cares about doing the best job he can for the people. Honestly, I wish all professionals (solicitors, brokers, builders, estate agents, etc) were as competent and useful as Jamie. His services and great professionalism were the only stress-free part of the process we went through.

Jamie is really lovely and so helpful. He managed to book me in pretty quickly and carried out the survey, then I received a call to go through the findings. I received my write up in less than a week and all was clear and concise. He even reassured some queries I have as I am a first time buyer. Would definitely recommend him and his high standard of work.

I would highly recommend Jamie from Hector's House to anyone looking to have a survey done on a house purchase. Very thorough and easy to talk to with any issues. Very detailed survey and had full report back to us within a few days. Many thanks Jamie.

Jamie provided me with a very detailed, informative and helpful survey report. I appreciated being to talk through the issues he'd found concerning the property that he surveyed. I would definitely recommend him and will use him again for a future house purchase.
