Carpenter Surveyors Arvostelua 24

Paid 600 quid for a level 2 HomeBuyers survey and it took a week to come back, and didn't even include a valuation or rebuild cost. In my opinion it was alarmist, and had very little useful info on the property you couldn't figure out by just looking around yourself. All it tells you to do is get tons of other checks done before buying the house which would cost a fortune. Wish I hadn't wasted my money!

I am extremely disappointed with my experience with Carpenter Surveyors. I had a Level 3 survey done, and it was a frustrating process from start to finish. The surveyor arrived late, and the entire visit lasted less than an hour and a half.

Unfortunately, many significant structural and safety issues were overlooked. For instance, there was no support in the entire extension, and the loft conversion was not completed safely. These are serious concerns that should have been identified during the survey.

My list of complaints could go on, but the bottom line is that this has resulted in unexpected costs and stress for us. There were multiple issues that were clear and obvious, yet they were not mentioned in the survey report.

I would strongly advise against using Carpenter Surveyors for any surveys unless you’re prepared for unpleasant surprises when moving into your new home.

Brilliant service from start to finish. Very informative and explained every step of the way. Survey and results we’re super quick and I even spoke to the surveyor who answered any questions I had very politely and put my mind at ease. Highly recommend this company. Also very competitive price.

Excellent customer service, efficient & professional service. I used Carpenter Surveyors for a home valuation. As I live overseas, they needed to liaise with the letting agent & my representative in the UK, which was all done without issue. The report was issued promptly & met the needs of all parties.

I highly recommend.

Thoroughly recommend Gregg Cave, friendly and professional - a credit to the business.

It's not the first time I use them. I came back to them as they are efficient and reliable, always keep me updated with progress, and happy to answer my questions. A very smooth process for me. I got my report within a few working days.

Fit me in quickly and sent the report back to me quickly as requested, however there are multiple obvious inaccuracies in the report, e.g. says there’s no drainage where there is, in multiple areas; says trickle valves need installing asap but there’s already perfectly functioning ones installed; said the back door doesn’t open when it easily does; plus more. Most of the report looks like a template and every section comes with a disclaimer saying this needs checking by a professional - then what am I paying you £500 for?

We commissioned a Level 2 Home Buyer's Survey with Carpenter Surveyors. The survey took place quickly and was competitively priced. The final report was provided within the timescales quoted and was really detailed which helped us make informed decisions in our purchase transaction.

We were particularly happy with the customer service provided by Tracey, Laura and Emma, who were always on hand to assist with any queries we had. Our surveyor, Stephen, also took time to have a call to discuss some aspects of the report which put our minds at ease.

We will absolutely be recommending Carpenter Surveyors to anyone in need of these services in the future. Thanks again!

Quick with responses and very helpful. Would recommend

I haven't yet employed the use of this company for a valuation report on my property but intend to use them. This review is based on the phone call with a lovely lady called Emma who answered my queries and was frankly open, honest and professional during my telephone enquiries. First impressions count and this is what has led me to know that I intend to use this company for my valuation.

This company was fast and easy to deal with. Tracey kept me informed with a friendly, polite and professional manner. Gregg Cave was my surveyor and his report was easy to read and he highlighted works for my attention by using a traffic light system. I would highly recommend them.

Guy from Carpenters recently undertook a survey for me on a property we are buying in Worcester. The survey was very comprehensive and easy to read with clear photos. Guy called me straight after the survey and went through his main concerns and the report followed a few days later. Tracey in the office was very communicative and I am delighted with the whole experience.

Whenever we are asked to recommend a surveyor, we never hesitate to tell people about Ian Bullock and his team at Carpenters Surveyors. We have used their services many times over the years and they have never let us or their clients down. Whether its a modern home or a grade II listed manor house, we cannot fault their expertise when looking after a buyers best interests and very importantly they turn their reports around quickly to ensure their clients always receive a fast and efficient service. If you're looking for the best, look no further than Carpenters and Ian Bullock. Rachel & Martin

Fantastic- could not fault the company one bit, service was 10/10 and went the extra mile

We had a level 2 survey from Carpenters. Really pleased with the service and the attention the staff gave us after the report was excellent. The report was very easy to understand and at a reasonable price.

We’d definitely recommend. Thanks for your help.

Carpenters gave us a detailed house survey on our recent purchase. The report was easy to follow and within the budget we had.

Our follow up conversations with the surveyor was a bonus and gave us piece of mind.

Thanks to Tracy, Craig and Emma

We used Carpenters for a Level 3 survey on our forever home in March this year. The process was smooth, straightforward and the staff explained our options from the start. The cost was reasonable considering the depth of reporting and the excellent detail it went into, including photos.

Special thanks to Tracy, Emma and Anthony for their efforts. We would definitely recommend.

They were recommended to me via a friend and proved to be exactly what we were expecting. Prompt, high quality and a friendly bunch.

Ian and the team went above and beyond when we had any technical questions, and our report was very thorough, which gave me and my partner peace of mind with our purchase. We'll definitely be recommending them to our friends and family in the future.

Being a nervous buyer, we were so pleased that carpenter surveyors provided a good quality service in the timescale that they said they would. They even identified issues that we didn’t notice during our viewing, which meant that we were able to negotiate a little with the vendor.

Many thanks for your help Craig Redmond & Sarah Riesner

We had an absolutely terrible experience with this surveyor, we are first time buyers so we went for their top package to get a detailed survey for peach of mind. What we actually received was a 'template' report. I bet they use the same template for all their surveys. Its 100 pages or so, with padded out basic information such as 'Electrics - These are used to power your house' and Wikipedia definitions of 'gas', 'windows' etc. We know what they bloody are lol. Next, to safeguard themselves absolutely everything has the caveat of 'we recommend an electrician review the electrics' this is the same for the gas, windows, water, plaster etc. I'm not even sure what we have paid for but this is definitely not a survey report in any way for the house we are considering, a complete waste of time!!!!! If you want a 100+ page 'template' report which recommends you get a specialist to look at everything, then go with these guys.
