What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Level 3 surveys form the backbone of the work described by clients of this building consultancy, which also handles short format building surveys, standard valuations and specific defects reports on properties around Preston, Ambleside and Kendal. Reviewers frequently point to how thorough the reports are while remaining straightforward to follow, with significant defects identified and explained in accessible language that supports informed decisions. The debrief call after a site visit is a theme running through the feedback, giving owners clarity on what needs attention in the near and longer term.

Clear paperwork setting out which survey to choose, swift replies to initial enquiries and completion ahead of promised dates are praised across accounts. Named professionals appear throughout the comments, among them Bill Holden, Michael, Mat, Brandon Moss, Nikita Broadbent and John, thanked for talking clients through every stage, fielding questions and following up once reports were delivered. Photography, including aerial images of roofs, is singled out for helping people picture problems, and fair rates with no additional charges are noted by several clients.

Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish. We commissioned a level 3 survey which was very thorough in scope and detail - and delivered on time. Comms were excellent before and after the survey. Luke was professional and a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended.

We used Holdens for a building survey on a listed property. Throughout the process, Mike and the team were in communication regularly. Mike took the time to explain the survey that would be done in advance, spoke to me on the survey day and then talked us through the findings at length. His insights in the discussion went beyond a standard survey and he was very helpful in pointing us to contacts and companies that could offer us further input.

Used Holdens twice now. They are very knowledgeable when it comes to their business. Their rates are good without any hidden costs. The phone call prior to receiving the full report was very helpful and the young man, John, was so lovely. A lovely experience from the business. I would 100% use them again if I need a surveyor . Thank you

We had a Level 3 survey carried out on a property in Preston. The service was professional from start to finish, with clear communication and a detailed report which was easy to follow. The survey picked up important issues and explained them clearly, which really helped us make informed decisions. Highly recommend.
