Building Surveys. Debbie. Garston, Merseyside. September 2015

I used: Smyth & Associates. Excellent: Seamus quickly arranged an inspection/survey and produced a report really quickly. The report was very clear and thorough and he also was happy to discuss it with me over the phone. He also helped during later stages of the purchase as our lender and their surveyor/valuers seemed pretty useless and had several queries on the property which Seamus discussed directly with them. Would certainly recommend to others.

Building Survey. Alessandro. Warrington, Cheshire. September 2015

 

 

 

 

 

Promptness of response :  Had an email within 2 minuets of filling out the inquiry form. Communication over the phone and emails was excellent. The surveys carried out are exactly what we needed.
Quality of service :  Both of the surveys carried out are extremely professional and highlighted defects we didn't even think of looking for. The surveys also saved us money on the Morgage as some of the issues with the property meant we renegotiated the price to cover the costs of the repairs.
Value for money :  The money we saved renegotiateing the price to cover the cost of repairs to the property significantly outweighed the cost of the survey.
Professionalism :  Communication was excellent, all questions answered and emails replied to in excellent time. Also any issues sorted out with no fuss. Overall a very professional and reputable company to deal with. I would highly recommend.

Quality of service :  Report was excellent and covered the main issues that I would have expected.
Value for money :  Full building survey was reasonably priced in comparison with competitors.
Professionalism :  Agreed. Professionalism was excellent and all communication with me was appropriate.

Promptness of response :  I received my report within 3 days of the survey taking place as promised.

Professionalism :  I thought he was excellent

Building Surveys. David. Liverpool, Merseyside. April 2015

 

 

 

 

 

Quality of service :  Fantastic service. Smyth & Associates Surveyors contacted me on the Thursday carried out the survey on Friday and supplied a 90 page detailed report by the Sunday. I would highly recommend this website and Smyth & Associates to anyone wanting a first class company.

Building Surveys. Diane, Culcheth, Warrington. April 2015

 

 

 

 

 

Promptness of response :  Seamus always replied to my emails and returned calls. When I was first looking for a surveyor, I sent out the same email to 5 other surveyors with 6 questions. Seamus answered all my questions where all the rest of people only answered 2 or 3, especially 1 of question was 'where could I find out whether the surveyor is truly charter surveyor registered and insured?', Many of them just ignored this question but Seamus replied back with adequate information for me. Therefore, I felt he was detail and professional so I picked him and proved I was right in the end:)
Quality of service :  I intended to make a few changes to the house I am buying and told Seamus my plans and then he gave me extra insights in those areas. He did survey on Wed and I received report on Sunday Morning with 99 pages. Where I didn't understand parts of the report I called up and asked, he explained thoroughly and I learnt quite a bit from it as well. I needed a few certain pages to send to the agent for renegotiate the price and Seamus sent them immediately, with no complaints. Thanks again for that.
Value for money :  It was money extremely well spent. Why? Because I successfully renegotiated the price and had £5K reduction, which meant every £100 I spent I saved myself £1000.
Professionalism :  Seamus provided a very detail building report with 99 pages long, made my eye sore reading it through but it was worth while! Based on Seamus's findings and estimated repair costs made me think either get a good purchase price reduction or just withdraw my offer. In the end, the seller agreed to revised to £5,000 less. Seamus saved me from unexpected outgoing which the valuation survey report didn't mention. I was so glad I chose Seamus Smyth rather than all the cheaper ones. I highly recommended.

Promptness of response :  Very fast and detailed response via email.
Quality of service :  Great quality report.
Value for money :  Good value. Initial quote does not include a formal valuation, so need to confirm if you need one as well.
Professionalism :  Quickly arranged survey and report arrived quickly. Helped find issues we had not noticed. Used it to help negotiate on purchase. Would recommend to others.

Building Surveys. Jeffrey, Preston, Lancs

The web site worked perfectly, and I had just finishing completing the information on my computer when my phone started ringing! The quotes from the website were easily understood and had sufficient information. The calls were followed up with emails and quotes which also gave in depth information about the surveyors. I made an informed choice based on qualifications, cost and knowledge of the area. I selected Seamus Smyth. Seamus was very professional, personable and helpful. Within a very short period of time, a report was in my inbox. The report was thorough, easily understood and advisory. I wish all professional bodies worked in this format. It would save going through a lengthy process. This really worked well for me. Thank you.

Vicky, Liverpool

The web site gave an excellent choice of competitive providers and we used Seamus Smyth of Smyth Associates. They were prompt, professional and efficient with a detailed report

Sinead, Liverpool

Seamus, Thanks very much for sending through the report for ............ Just wanted to get in touch to say thanks for a great job! I really appreciated the phone call after your visit to the property last Thursday. That personal touch of letting me know what had come out of the survey; the "bad news" and what was to be written into the report was thoroughly appreciated. I thought I should let you know that having given it some thought, digested the report last night and along with the pictures - which really helped - I've decided to pull out of the purchase. I felt the structural issues you highlighted were just a "compromise" to far I was willing to make. So thanks very much for all your handwork. Obviously the house hunting continues so if I find another property I'll be in touch! In the meantime I wouldn't hesitate to recommend your services to family and friends - I've been thoroughly impressed. Thanks again Regards

I used this website in order to get the names of people who could carry out a building survey for me. I got a number of names who contacted me, with prices, very quickly. I also found the information about the types of surveys most useful. I chose Seamus Smyth. Seamus did an excellent job for me. I wanted a building survey carried out on an older property with several extensions and a particular type of rendering. Seamus came up with a competitive price, he was flexible with his diary, and he provided a comprehensive report. We then had two telephone conversations to go through his findings which I found extremely valuable. I would recommend Seamus to anyone thinking of using his services.

Brian, Warrington

Dear Séamus I would like to thank you on behalf of Alishia and myself for your quick and thorough examination of our property. The survey was extremely helpful and very professional and we will most definitely be recommending your service to any potential suitors.

Best regards Tom

I chose Seamus Smyth of Smyth and Associates. I am very impressed with the information provided. An in depth survey with photos to show any outstanding jobs that would need rectifying. This enabled me to make a decision not to go ahead with a sale. Issues were pointed out that I had not even thought of. Great communication and phone calls were encouraged. I would highly recommend S.Smyth@SmythandAssociates.co.uk
