What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

In Birmingham, I AM Surveyors has earned consistent praise for professional service and clear communication throughout the surveying process. Feedback repeatedly highlights a streamlined journey, from securing an instant online quotation to arranging the inspection and receiving the completed report. Paul and Mlak Haughton are named by reviewers as informative professionals who willingly fielded extensive questions, presenting defects in an understandable way alongside likely causes and remedies. The finished reports draw frequent commendation for their depth, logical layout and balanced suggestions, with a Level 3 Structural Survey turned around inside seven days.

Email correspondence is singled out for its speed, and office staff are described as prompt and helpful when answering queries. Arrangements with estate agents for access are managed without friction, and the overall experience is viewed as sensibly priced and well coordinated. Reviewers often note how valuable the service proves for first-time buyers facing an unfamiliar process. Discovering Japanese Knotweed that a lender's valuation had overlooked illustrates a thoroughness clients found reassuring, while technical know-how is consistently paired with an approachable, patient manner that leaves customers feeling supported.

Admin was quick when responding to my emails, and when answering the questions I had which was really helpful. The surveyors, Paul and Mlak Haughton were informative, and happy to answer the hundreds of questions we had ! it was nice to have surveyors that were able to make the defects they found digestible in terms of potential causes and solutions. I received the Level 3 report a week later which I really appreciated!. Would recommend

Paid £510 for a level 2 survey and was told we would get an email to book the survey with. We received no such email. Tried to contact the company via all phone numbers we could find - they either don't dial or go straight to voice mail. Also emailed every email we could find related to the company to no avail. Eventually we received an email about a week after paying with no contact saying that our postcode wouldn't be able to be covered, unsure why this was not checked before taking our money. The review was only given 2 stars and not 1 due to the apologetic nature of their email. I can not speak for the quality of the surveys but if it is a reflection of their customer service I wouldn't hold your breath.

Great service on doing my Level 3 Structural Survey. Quick turnaround with booking the property visit, and the extensive report has been ready in 1 week time. The phone line was often busy, but I have got practically instant responses via email. Highly recommend!

A good report. Very difficult to get in contact with anyone however - I feel they are understaffed. Paid a lot of money but difficult to seek help when needed.

Really great experience with these guys. It was super reasonable, they organised with the agent for access and got the report out once all the final checks were complete. Great communication throughout. The report was very detailed and gave fair recommendations which was brilliant. The report was organised clearly and easily able to follow it. For first time buyers this was super (as we have no idea what we are doing!) Really recommend this company.
