What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Property surveys for homebuyers, including Level 2 and full RICS3 reports, sit at the centre of the work described by clients of this York firm. The depth and clarity of the written report is the praise that comes up most often, with purchasers saying that every part of the property is covered and set out in language that is straightforward to follow. Mike, the surveyor, is named several times for the attention given after the inspection: reviewers repeatedly mention a telephone call in which the significance of the findings was explained and queries answered without haste, and one notes guidance on what to address once the move is complete.

Turnaround stands out too, whether an appointment arranged at short notice or a report issued the day after the visit, and Sophie is credited with managing the booking arrangements with real knowledge. A balanced, objective handling of defects, photographs that accompany the write-up and a drone survey described as a valuable addition all feature in the accounts. The impression is of a friendly, professional service that made a difficult purchase easier to assess.

Brilliant service. Used to create a Full RICS3 Survey, allowed us all to discuss the important issues in an objective and fair way! Definitely helped reduce any potential stress! Highly recommended.

Minster Survey were excellent. We got a very detailed report, which really helped us both with the purchase of our property, and with knowing what needs to be done once we move in. It was a very quick turnaround and very professional throughout. We were very happy.

We were very pleased with the Level 2 Home buyer survey carried out on our property. The report was detailed, clear, and easy undestand. Mike also personally called us to thoroughly discuss the findings. He explained the problems clearly, talked through the implications, and patiently answered all of my questions. This was extremely helpful and gave us a much better understanding of the property’s condition. We appreciated the balanced approach, the report identified areas needing attention while also providing reassurance on elements that were found to be satisfactory. The recommendations were sensible and realistic, giving us clarity on both immediate concerns and future maintenance. Overall, we found the service professional, thorough, and extremely valuable in supporting our decision making process. We would not hesitate to recommend Minster Survey to others.

Had a great experience with Minster Survey. They provided a survey on a home we were looking to buy. The report was great and went into detail on all parts of the home. I would highly recommend Minster Survey.

Mike provided a very useful survey, identifying a number of issues to be addressed while giving a balanced view of the property’s positive features. The drone photos were very good to have and a phone call to ask questions was invaluable.

From my first enquiry for a quote, enhanced with a very kind follow up call from Kate. Minster Surveys have been nothing but thoroughly professional and helpful in helping me throughout the whole process of a bungalow survey. The report was very detailed and thorough, with clear comments and supportive photographs, outlining issues which needed to be addressed and issues which were perfectly fine. I would have no hesitation in recommending Minster Surveys to anyone who is looking for a professional and comprehensive house survey... I am very pleased with the service from start to finish. Many thanks.
