Booking was straightforward and price good value. The level 3 survey was excellent. We especially appreciated the time Lee took to explain the report in detail during a video call. Thank you so much for all your help we would not hesitate to recommend you to others!

I had a Level 3 property survey. Lee Preston, the Surveyor was absolutely brilliant. He produced a very detailed report with clear recommendations. Lee offered a zoom or telephone option to discuss the report and I had several conversations with him during the conveyancing process. Lee was extremely helpful, providing advice and support during what was an incredibly stressful time. I would highly recommend this company and Lee in particular and would certainly use them again in the future.

Lee recently carried out a level 3 survey, and his help has been invaluable. I've been impressed by the quality and rigour of his work (easily laid out in a 95 page report), and would definitely use his services again. As a first time buyer, the call to talk through the report and any other questions was particularly useful. Lee took the time to walk through what he would/wouldn't immediately worry about, what temporary fixes might be available, the expected time and cost of making the fixes good, and also what I may be able to do myself. I feel incredibly well informed, and really valued him doing this.

We are very pleased by the service provided by South West Surveyor's for a level 2 survey on our new house in Bristol, which we booked through Domestic Surveys. Lee did a very thorough job looking over the property and providing us comprehensive information about the condition of the house, including lots of photos, and Martin of Domestic Surveys did a great job organizing the survey and responding promptly and efficiently to all our emails. Would definitely recommend!

Lee was fantastic! His survey was in depth, professional and he even had the time to answer all of our questions via a phone call to clear up any issues we had.

I would highly recommend to any first time buyers like myself who are apprehensive about their purchase.

I was extremely impressed with Lee and his service.

The booking was made swiftly, and the survey report shared within a few days after the appointment. Lee was extremely thorough throughout the report, and made some excellent recommendations for works that should ideally be carried out before the sale, including indicative costs. I managed to knock £2k off the purchase price, thanks to the in-depth report and recommendations.

Lee was also responsive, helpful and knowledgeable when I came to him with questions post the survey. I was very happy with the whole experience (not to mention the outcome!) and would highly recommend this business.

Cannot recommend Domestic Surveys highly enough. Got a reply on the weekend when I needed to book a survey quickly during the process purchase. The report was super detailed and the followup call on Zoom was great, Lee understood every concern I had and answered them in detail. Definitely worth the money for the peace of mind.

The whole process was quick and customer service was very easy to get a hold of. Any questions I had in advance of the survey were answered promptly.
The work that Lee did at the property was great. The 40+ page report was sent to me within two days and everything in it was easy to digest and follow.
Lee provided a 1:1 phone call as well and answered any questions I had.
All in all, a great service with amazing communication! Would recommend!

The communication throughout was very good, and the survey itself was thorough and clear. The surveyor, Lee, made himself available for a conversation afterwards and made sure I understood the comments made we finished. I would recommend him and the company to anyone.

We recently used Lee's services for a survey on a detached 50's bungalow that had been extended over time and we are planning on purchasing. Lee was available to meet us at the house towards the end of the survey and pointed out some of the observations he had identified. We found his survey report very thorough and were pleased with the overall outcome. Fortunately for us, the property was in a good condition overall, but Lee highlighted some areas where future maintenance was needed (and to be expected). We also had a follow up call with him where he gave us an honest and realistic view on when we should do things and an approximate budget for them. We were impressed with Lee's approach and the report he produced will be useful both for the purchase and to help us carry out future maintenance . We would certainly recommend this company for other buyers.

I found South West Surveyors through a friend who highly recommended them and we also had an excellent experience using their services.
It was simple to organise, we said we needed a survey and Martin took care of the rest! Martin was very friendly and explained our options around survey levels and generally made the process clear and simple. He also regularly updated us along the way and organised everything with the sellers.
Lee performed our survey, quickly provided us with a thorough report and kindly took the time to talk through and explain the issues for us. I would highly recommend his services and will get in contact again if we buy another property in the future.

Though price is not the most competitive in the market, Lee (Surveryor) and Martin (Client Services) were always responsive, in a swift manner. The Full Report was very detail and when we had the virtual meeting with Lee he gave detailed explanation. Would definitely recommend!

Lee was assigned as our surveyor - The report he put together was very thorough, he even scheduled in a Zoom meeting with us after the report was finalised. He was happy to guide us through the whole report and expand on the areas that we had questions on.
We would highly recommend Lee to all of our friends and family - The level of service was extremely high compared to the cost.

Lee's report was very thorough and well balanced, highlighting positives about the property as well as a very detailed description of risks and issues.

When it came to our meeting, he was helpful, clear and good to talk to. He was knowledgeable about the area and after the meeting we were much better informed about what the property needed and were able to renegotiate the sale price on the back of that information.

Would absolutely recommend Lee to anyone looking for a building surveyor.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND
1) Great customer service, quick to respond to my enquiry
2) Survey was booked promptly and carried out on time
3) Very comprehensive report came back within two days or survey taking place
4) Next working day of receiving report, spent valuable time chatting through various points with Lee who explained things very clearly and, the seriousness (or not) of each issue raised
5) More expensive than others but you get what you pay for
