I have had a survey done of a property I am in the processing of buying and could not be happier with the process. John is incredibly approachable, friendly and helpful.

A Earnshaw  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 


CS Surveying & Architectural Design Ltd provided me with a full survey of the house we are purchasing. They were very easy to deal with and provided a detailed report that was easy to understand and provided a breakdown of costs of any repairs we are likely to need to undertake following our purchase. Their prices were also very competitive.


A Stobert  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 


 When my usual surveyor couldn't move quickly enough for my requirements, I found CS Surveying not only able to meet a very, very tight timeline but also proved to be great value for money.
From the initial engagement to receipt of the report, CS Surveying were efficient and delivered ahead of plan plus were available for verbal feedback before the formal report was able to be released, and available "out of hours".
As a novice property developer, having confidence in the professionals around you is vital. I have used CS Surveying a couple of times now, and always get prompt service and speedy feedback.
I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to purchase property.


H Plahe  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐   


Highly recommend CS Surveying & Architectural Design Ltd! After searching through several surveying companies, I chose CS Surveying based on the reviews and very friendly and informative initial phone chat. Second time using this surveyor. On both occasions John has been a great help. Explanations and advisories are very clear and easy to understand. The report is very detailed, easy to read and thorough. Thank you for a brilliant service and fuss-free process. Much appreciated :-)

Superb service and Professionalism.
John understood my requirements and timescale, he worked tirelessly to achieve our Goals. Great building knowledge and friendly delivery, I would highly recommend their services.


M Roebuck  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐     

 

CS Surveying did a survey on the house we are buying.  They were unbelievably professional.  The survey talked the survey through with me before he visited the house, then called me the day after the survey and spent half an hour on the phone going through his findings.  We then received his report just a couple of days later which was so detailed and great pictures.  We were able to negotiate nearly £15000 off the house because of Johns report.  WOW!  An amazing company and worth every penny.  I will recommend them to all my friends and family.


L Balch  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐      

 

Probably the most thorough survey I have had. With pictorial evidence and precise measurements Contained within 100 pages of easy-to-understand English
He did what he was asked to do on time and I understand from the property owner helped rescue a trapped bird .
He was considerably less expensive than a quote from a local surveyor who had previously surveyed a similar size property. Who decided that trying to charge us an additional £500 would be paid for by ignorance? So very pleased when Johns quote was slightly better than our previous paid survey which with hindsight was neither as detailed or delivered as promptly
Nothing to add other than polite and did not talk down to me as a "non Architectural degree carrier"


A Fayez  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Our surveyor provided a clear and comprehensive report.  The surveyor was also easy to access by phone and was able to answer our questions about the report. When we spoke to John our surveyor he answered all our questions spent half an hour on the phone. Very happy with the service provided, will definitely recommend to friends and family. Very friendly service overall.



Steven Peers  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Very efficient. Report was completed within 5 days and very thorough.



Dave Stones  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


We engaged with CS at very short notice after needing a surveyor on our new purchase after a basic valuation flagged up some things. We opted for a level 3 survey.
 
Within an hour Andrea had replied, we agreed costs and instructed the work and within 24 hours John the surveyor had been to the property.
 
He provided verbal feedback promptly which we spent an hour going through it and then within 3 days our report had arrived fully.
 
The report was in-depth full of pictures of all defects and approx costs to fix the issues.
 
I’m glad we picked CS over some of the bigger companies as those companies wanted more money and longer lead times.
 
John and the team are agile, professional and thorough and we cannot recommend them enough.

Alan Smith  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

CS Surveying & Architectural Design are brilliant. John has represented me as an expert witness and I could not have got anyone better. In this world with so many dodgy people about in my case a renderer who did shoddy work I needed someone who knew about the subject concerned and John was top class. We won our case in court


Karen Totty  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Brilliant service from John. Responded quickly to all queries, understood what I wanted and offered suggestions I hadn’t thought of. Detailed plans were quickly drawn up, submitted and chased through. Very satisfied and recommended. Thanks

James Bryan ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ NEW

Great communication from company as a whole. Well written report which was sent to us a few days after the survey. I would wholeheartedly recommend them for prepurchase house surveying.


Jess Freeman ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is now my third survey with CS Surveying and I can't recommend them enough. The quality, depth and detail of the report has quite literally saved me thousands. Not to mention the instant phone call feedback, exceptional communication and turn around time for the report and incredibly friendly staff. Would not use another surveying company and would highly recommend.


Ben Ellse ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

John has provided me and my partner an absolute 5 STAR service throughout our first home buying experience. Looking for a first home has been quite daunting and John has been so thorough and exact which has filled us with confidence moving forward. I wouldn't recommend anybody to buy without the house first being John certified!


Imogen Gledhill ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had John conduct a survey for us prior to purchasing a property, and all we can say is thank goodness that we did. He found a number of issues with the property that would have resulted in us likely never being able to sell the property on in the future, and therefore saved us from purchasing a house that could have caused us great distress. John’s manner is kind, understanding and professional. He contacted us the day the survey was conducted and told us the key details we needed to know and answered any questions we had, before following it up just 2 days later with a comprehensive report. We are very grateful we found John and will be using him again in the future without a moment’s hesitation. Fantastic service!


Lucy Kelfry ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

CS were extremely prompt in responding to my request for a quote for a structural survey on the property I am purchasing and then made their own contact with the estate agents to arrange entry etc. We received an incredibly thorough report with a week. We then had a few queries regarding the property based on the report and John was more than happy to speak to me on the phone and answered all of my questions. John is incredibly good at what he does and his experience in his field is evident. I couldn't recommend CS enough and would use them again in a heartbeat.


Danny Kaine ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 6 days ago

Fantastic experience from CS Surveying from start to finish. John and his team found time to arrange a survey the week we called and we had the report with us within 5 working days.

John called me during the survey to explain his findings and was happy to take a call afterwards explaining anything I didn’t understand in the report. The report was well-detailed and included estimate prices and lots of photos to back up the findings.

Would 100% recommend John to friends and family.


Mr & Mrs Pearson ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thankyou Team CS !! You have been amazing.  We are delighted with your knowledge, expertise and architectural design.  You've made it a very personal process.  We are so glad we knocked on the door of CS Surveying & Architectural Design.  Just awesome. !!!!


Jana: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It did go through a good number of Level 3 reports and the CS Surveying report was more detailed than any other and comprehensive and easy to understand. John gave me a call while at the house and we had a good conversation about the current state of the house. I was able to negotiate the price a little more. Andrea has been quick to respond. The timeline for the delivery of the report was kept, in fact, it was a day earlier which is appreciated. I would recommend this company if you are looking for professional, reliable service.

B Baker: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have to highly recommend John & Andrea, this is my first time buying a house and their service was not only amazingly clear and easy to navigate but they where lovely people in general. We needed the survey last minute and John was super accommodating with helping us to achieve this deadline, plus explained everything in detail so we could understand everything we needed to know! We have taken his advice and glad we did so, would highly recommend to anyone, especially first time buyers who may be unsure of what everything means


NeilF: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Very professional Service and expert knowledge

We had an emergency survey carried out when our old roof was leaking, despite several "expert roofers" and lots of time and money wasted, John from CS Surveying came to our aid, identified the cause of the problem within minutes which we had fixed and has never leaked since. Johns expertise and knowledge on roofing was amazing.. The service was very professional and really saved the day for us. I would highly recommend this company and their expertise. Well done CS Surveying and Architectural Design and thankyou so much.


Sarah: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Honestly don't know what we would have done without John & Andrea. They've had our backs every step of the way and always been there when we needed them. We bought a new build property which has been a nightmare & John has been our calming influence in a long drawn out battle between ourselves and the building company. He's gone above and beyond to help us, he's relayed information from our solicitors to try and keep our costs down, completed a detailed & professional survey, attended various meetings with us & been 1 step ahead of the game. His knowledge and expertise are exemplary and we couldn't have picked a better surveyor, both professionally and empathetically."


Maddison: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Absolutely superb. Ticked all the boxes. I chose CS Surveying as they had the the most detailed and evidence based reports of all. No general comments made at all. Photographic evidence of damp meter readings etc. to back all of their comments. Additionally I had a phone call as soon as the survey was completed to highlight the main items I had aired as a potential concern. The Team were efficient and pro-active in slotting me into a cancellation and did all the planning with the seller's Estate Agent. The report arrived exactly in the agreed timescales. I will use CS Surveying for all future work I need in this area. The best there is in terms of ease to deal with, quality of information supplied and approachability. Only one person dealing with the admin side meant that they knew me and my situation personally unlike most of the others I had quotes from. Also could answer most of the questions I had without the need to check with the Surveyor."
