Henderson Building Surveyors

Steve provided an excellent service when carrying out our level 3 survey. He was thorough, communicated regularly on any updates and we were pleased with the depth of his report. As soon as the survey was done, he phoned me to provide a quick update on key observations and highlighted important issues to consider which could impact us in the future which we really appreciated. I would highly recommend him if you're looking for a building surveyor!

We used Steve in March to survey a property we were hoping to buy (Level 3 survey). The booking process was easy and friendly. Steve asked us beforehand if we had anything specific to look at. After the survey, Steve rang to discuss what he'd found and put it into context (incredibly helpful to have instant and easy to understand info). The written report that followed was received promptly, it was clear and high quality. We felt we had a really clear idea of the quality of the house based on what Steve had found and how he communicated it. Steve has been in touch since to double check we didn't have any further questions. Highly recommend, a long standing and local company.

Steve’s communication was superb throughout. He took the time to explain the issues he found, provided valuable advice, and followed everything up with a detailed report, giving us the confidence to purchase our forever home. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone looking for a professional and thorough house survey.

My husband and I used Steven’s services to purchase our first home. Steven is responsive, thorough, and meticulous - picking up on the smallest detail. He saved us thousands by discovering many hidden issues. Following his report, he spent time walking us through his findings so we were in the best position to speak to and negotiate with the sellers. We highly recommend and will use him in the future.

I hired Steven for an RICS Level 2 survey and was very impressed. His use of a drone provided a full view of the property and helped identify a slipped roof tile that may otherwise have been missed. The report was clear, detailed, and well supported with photos and practical recommendations, making it easy to raise issues with the sellers. He also reviewed evidence of the completed repairs, which gave real peace of mind. Highly recommended — 5 stars.

We are purchasing a 3 bed semi detached (1950’s) and Steve did a fantastic job. We did a level 3. You want a surveyor you can trust and Steve is exactly that. No question was ever too much for him, and he spent additional time with us on the phone drilling down into the particular issues that came up in the report - that ultimately enabled us to make a decision whether to purchase or not. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Steve. He’s reliable, fair with his advice and gets to the point.

Seeking a formal survey of my (30 year) home roof, was provided Building Surveyor Details as a validated/verified RICS business. Shared detailed requirements for Steve and we had very helpful exchanges around how this could be and his availability and my location. Date agreed for less than 2 weeks and terms shared for the work. Steve was promptly on time, had all the equipment including drone and the survey of the roof took approximately 1.5 hours including the internal loft space, combined garage, utility room and 4 bedroom house. Steve was thoroughly professional throughout and advised of any items as he progressed his survey, and which would be in his formal report, along with 1st class photographs (including drone) of the whole and individual sections of the roof of specific interest, in particular guttering and adjacent eaves and roofing felt work. After finishing the survey work Steve confirmed set clear expectation on delivery the completed report which was delivered promptly and to the necessary levels of detail and items of focus. Overall I consider this to be an excellent and worthwhile investment in assuring the integrity of our roof and associated features. Steve provided an exemplary service, and I would confidently recommend Henderson Building Surveyors for such works at any time.
