Customer Reviews

★★★★☆ M20 2LK

Very thorough inspection

Inspector spent 4 hours going through every room meticulously. Found things we'd never have noticed — gaps in seals, misaligned units, drainage issues. Good detailed report. Developer was initially resistant but fixed most items.

★★★★★ E8 3JK

Essential for any new build buyer

We nearly didn't bother with a snagging survey thinking it was an unnecessary expense. Huge mistake that would have been. The survey found structural issues in the loft as well as 89 other defects. Money extremely well spent.

★★★★★ EH9 2BQ

Developer took every defect seriously

The detailed photographic report from Richardson meant the developer couldn't dispute any of the findings. All 97 snags were fixed before we completed. The survey literally paid for itself on day one.

Highly experienced inspector

The inspector's background in building control was obvious throughout. Found technical issues other surveyors might have missed — ventilation not to spec, fire stopping issues, drainage slope incorrect. Essential service for new build buyers.
