Shakil carried out a comprehensive Level 3 survey of our property, and we were impressed with the level of detail and professionalism. The report was clear, thorough, and highlighted some important areas that needed follow-up. It was well worth the investment. Speaking with Shakil afterwards was incredibly helpful—he took the time to explain the findings in more depth and answer our questions. We highly recommend his services

Excellent. Shakil was able to do the survey at a days notice due to a cancellation. The survey was comprehensive - we went for the plus product for peace of mind. It cost £900. Our solicitors will base some of their queries on this survey as will we. Foundation also provide a market valuation that helps you consider whether the offer your making is good value. We are thinking carefully about whether to adjust our offer with this information. We really appreciate the survey report and it focuses your mind on the important things to get right in the buying process. I would recommend.

We are happy to hear that Shakil was able to fulfil the survey request with such short notice and that you took the extra step to get the PLUS Service to ensure you paid the right price for the property. We are glad that our survey report provided enough detail to aid both your solicitors as well as you in your decision-making process. We are delighted to hear that you highly recommend us, and we truly value your opinion!
Booked a valuation for shared ownership staircasing. The surveyor attended within a week of my request and the valuation was issued promptly. A polite and efficient service. Would recommend.

We contacted Shakil to do our RICS valuation for our flat (help to buy), he offered some valuable advice for the property prior to valuation. The valuation was provided within a week! On top of that, I asked for help with a desktop-based valuation, and he replied to us the same day! after a couple of days Target asked again for a declaration letter signed by the surveyor and Shakil being on annual leave have helped us with this without hesitation. Very professional service, highly recommend, will use his services again in the future. Highly recommend!!
