Clarke & Watt Building Consultancy (CWBC) Arvostelua 24

We recently instructed Clarke & Watt Building Consultancy for two Level 3 surveys carried out within very short timeframes, and we were extremely impressed with the service provided. Both reports were exceptionally detailed, offering a wealth of insights and practical advice that proved invaluable in strengthening our negotiation position on the final purchase price of our new home.

Communication with Ruth and Jordan was always clear, timely, and followed through with positive actions exactly as planned. Their professionalism was matched by a very personalised approach, which gave us complete confidence throughout the process.

We can’t speak highly enough of Clarke & Watt and would wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone looking for thorough, reliable, and client-focused building consultancy support.

We have always approached CWBC for carrying out Schedule of Conditions reports across our extensive portfolio, and they have firmly established themselves as our go-to provider for professional building inspections.

From the outset, Ruth Jakeman and the entire CWBC team have demonstrated a level of thoroughness, integrity, and attention to detail that is second to none.
Their reports are very clear, comprehensive, and consistently delivered to a high standard with images and detailed narrative. What sets them apart is not just their technical knowledge, but their ability to flag real risks that many others might overlook.

In fact, their detailed findings have directly influenced our decision-making on several potential acquisitions, leading us to walk away from sites that would have exposed us to significant long-term liabilities. The cost savings and risk avoidance as a result of their reports have been substantial.

We hold CWBC in high esteem and are not just service providers — they’re trusted partners in our property strategy. If you’re looking for a team that combines professionalism, deep expertise, and genuine client care, look no further than Ruth and the rest of the team at CWBC.

What can I say, the review are True!
I am in the process of purchasing an old Victorian house and contacted Clarke & Watt, due to reading the positive reviews for this company. Good Review sell it every time in my experience!

Jordan Clarke (Executive Director) performed the Survey, the report was received a little later than expected, but it was not a problem. The report was comprehensive, nicely laid out with the associated pictures, with a Red, Amber, Green key code.
Where issues were identified, possible solutions and associated estimated costs were also provided. There was however some terminology which was not familiar, I contacted Clarke & Watt and asked if I could book an appt to speak to the Surveyor. I was advised that I could either email the questions or contact the Surveyor directly. I opted for the latter and called Jordan.

Initially I was expecting to book a suitable time to discuss the queries, as I was conscious that the timing of my call may not have been convenient for Jordan. To my surprise Jordan said he was happy to discuss my queries now if I had the time. So I took him up and asked away, I was half expecting Jordan to possibly rush the conversation (I had read reviews from other people whom said they experienced the Surveyor unwillingness to explain and inform them that they were busy). But I could not be any more wrong, from the start of the conversation Jordan proved to be exceptionally personable and willing to discuss in great detail my queries, he never rushed me and also extended the conversation by providing insight into other things which was beneficial to my understanding. What I expected to be a 10min conversation extended to nearly 30min. At the end of this I felt more at ease and had a better understanding. I was forearmed with additional knowledge. Jordan also recommended a CCTV Drainage report and provided me with a reliable contact, which I was very appreciative for.

With the information discussed with Jordan, I went back to the Estate Agent to request a renegotiation with the Seller, due to the issues identified, which came to a considerable amount. After a brief deliberation with the Vendor, we came to an agreement, the Seller reduced the house price by several thousand pounds.

I was ecstatic and all this contributory to the excellent Survey undertaken by Jordan, I had the evidence and estimated costs for repair work.

This is my first house purchase so was a little daunting when I initially read the report, had I not had the Survey performed, I would not have known of the issues raised and ended up several years down the line with an exceptionally large list of repairs!

The Survey was worth every penny! I would recommend Clarke & Watt to any person whom is seeking a House Inspection Survey.

First Class Service by this company, everyone I spoke to was friendly.

If in the future I decide to move and purchase another home, Clarke & Watt will be my first and only point of call to book in the House Survey!

I cannot recommend this company more, I base a company's professionalism against their after sales service as that provides a true insight into the nature of company, once they have had your money, Company's lose interest and become lack luster to respond. This most definitely IS NOT the case for Clarke & Watt!

From the beginning of my enquiry for a home buyers survey, Ruth at Clarke & Watts had brilliant communication and replied to me straight away. They were able to book in the home buyers survey very quickly and the report was emailed out promptly by the estimated time they had given. The report was very in depth and detailed and they happily answered any questions I had regarding the report. Would definitely use this company again, they are very professional and prompt.

Chris produced a home buyers level 3 survey that was well presented, detailed and thorough.

He was always happy to take my call and answer any questions or queries I had.

Overall my experience with CWBC was very positive.

I recently engaged CWBC for a pre-acquisition survey, and their service was exemplary from start to finish. The team exhibited unmatched professionalism and attention to detail. The survey report was comprehensive, providing valuable insights that guided our decision-making process. CWBC's commitment to excellence truly sets them apart. Highly recommended for anyone seeking top-notch building consultancy services!

Good service, good communication

I have had several residential surveys carried out by Sam from Clark & Watt Building Consultancy & every time they have been perfect. All reports gave me great insight into the condition of the property, exactly what I was looking for. Would highly recommend, couldn’t ask for more from the service provided.

Great service from CWBC! Professional and thorough, made the process seamless. Highly recommend Sam and his team.

Great company, the process with them was seamless. Would recommend

Jordan and the team are highly professional and have carried out many residential and commercial surveys on behalf of my clients who have all been satisfied. I have no hesitation in recommending them and will be continuing to do so.

CWBC acted for me on a pre acquisition survey and circulated the report within a tight deadline. Following the circulation of the report CWBC arranged a meeting to discuss salient findings and prepared budget cost's.
I would happily engage CWBC on a further occasion and found the service to be prompt and professional.

First class service from top notch firm. Appointed CWBC at short notice and they managed to fit me into their busy schedule. The survey was for a large commercial property which has planning for over 40 apartments. Thorough survey at an extremely competitive price. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Very professional throughout. Attention to detail, solid planning and good advice on a big project. Have been a huge help and critical to the projects success. Highly recommended.

Very happy with the survey report carried out by Clarke & Watt building consultancy , it gave us the confidence to proceed with our recent property purchase . Would highly recommend .

Cannot recommend them enough. Very quick to responded and easy to work with. I received a very detail building surveyor report that flagged numerous issues with a house I was purchasing. It transpired that the sellers were aware all along but did not declare- due to their diligence and detailed report, I was about to get a fair value off my asking price. Thanks again.

Very happy, excellent service

Excellent communication, friendly team and got the report back to me so quickly as I was under time pressure. The report was clear and detailed. Thank you Chris who helped me with this process, and to everyone at CWBC.
