What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Daniel is the recurring theme across the feedback for this York-based building surveyor, with customers consistently naming him as the reason for their satisfaction. First-time buyers describe being guided through unfamiliar territory with patience and plain language, particularly around Level 3 surveys, which are repeatedly praised for their depth and clarity. Several reviewers highlight the speed of response, noting that quotations, site visits and follow-up calls happen promptly, while written reports are delivered when promised and illustrated well enough to be easily understood.

The care taken to explain findings in layman's terms and to answer follow-up questions after the inspection comes up often, easing what many describe as a stressful purchase or dispute. Practical matters such as arranging roof coverings, coordinating contractors and managing a lantern light replacement for elderly clients show the scope of work beyond standard surveys, with customers mentioning detailed summaries the same day and comprehensive reports that include repair estimates. Communication before and after the job is a point that recurs, alongside professionalism and a personable manner. The consistent thread is thorough, well-explained surveying that leaves clients feeling informed and confident to proceed.

Daniel is an outstanding surveyor. At very short notice he surveyed a property for us and was very attentive and customer focussed. His survey was thorough and precise. He used his deep knowledge and acumen to identify issues and clearly explained how the building was constructed, what had failed and offered solutions for repair. He also suggested timelines for repairs and ideas for the sustainability of the property. The structural survey report was very articulate and facilitated open and objective negotiations with the seller of the property. A huge thank you to Daniel. His services are worth every penny.

Daniel was brilliant from start to finish. As a first time buyer I had no idea how anything works but he was extremely helpful and always easy to talk to. The Level 3 survey was really detailed and clearly explained, and he took the time to walk us through everything afterwards (twice), which made a big difference. He made what could have been a stressful process feel a lot more manageable and would definitely recommend!

I recently engaged Daniel for a Level 3 survey on a property I am buying. He was incredibly helpful. On the day he completed the survey he shared his initial findings over email, and then took the time to have a call to discuss them in detail. He followed up with the full report which presented all his key findings well. I would definitely use Daniel again.

Daniel provides a great surveying service. A ‘top man’. He surveyed a flat in a Victorian building for us. His verbal and written report were completely comprehensive and so easy to understand. He described all the issues found and explained the importance and relevance of each. He included an estimate of repair and improvement work should we decide to make improvements which has left us with a priority list to inform our ongoing development of the property. I would recommend him without reservation. If we move again (hopefully this will be our last and forever home) we will be using his services.

Daniel recently completed a building survey for us. Communication is very clear and efficient from the beginning. Daniel is very responsive to any queries we have. We received a summary on the same day after the survey was done. The full report was delivered on time as promised. It was comprehensive and detailed. As first-time buyers, we had many basic questions since we had no experience with construction. Daniel answered all our queries with a clear explanation and assurance. He is knowledgeable and able to recommend solutions for every issue. We are satisfied with Daniel's service and will definitely recommend him to anyone. Daniel will also be the first person to contact when we plan for an extension in the future.

Yeah, we're really pleased that we got Daniel to survey a potential property before purchasing. He wasn't only thorough and knowledgeable, but was also on hand to answer any questions we had and chat afterwards. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a survey, or any other services he offers. Thanks Daniel!
