“We were disappointed that the surveyors listed were not prepared to do a roof condition report, but offered a whole house survey report instead. Not what we required. As part of the full survey is to survey the roof, we would have thought that they could have done a "partial survey " report. One surveyor suggested we approach a reputable local roofing firm for a report. This is exactly what we did not want to do, as we do not believe that they would provide an impartial report - "a big job here if we play our cards right". We did however contact a roofing firm last week as it seems to be the only way forward, but they have yet to reply. So we are no further forward. Very disappointed.”

“My review covers appointments only, for this I can only give a poor, due to the appointment being missed by the booking office even though the payment had been taken 12 days before. The vendor had to phone them to find out what was happening, apparently it was a technical hitch, no specific reason was given. I was only informed after a new date had been arranged. Not good enough as the vendor had made specific arrangements to be available at this time on this date.”

“The surveyor behaved in a very improper and unprofessional manner. His actions were inappropriate and his strange demeanor and behaviour made me feel uncomfortable in my own home. I made a formal complaint to Romans on 12th November but as far as I can tell, they have done nothing about it. I would never use this service again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.”

“The lady I was on the phone to was very rude and did not want to talk on the phone I got asked to complete the email instead of talk on the phone when I wanted to ask questions. She then sounded like she was fed up whilst talking to me”

“I got one reply and they were 40 miles away. As a consequence (I suppose) the price was unaffordably high”

“The surveyor that I chose from your list has not provided good service. There has been a lack of communication and it is taking a very long time to give the report back. On asking when I could expect the report (after already waiting 7 working days) I was told it would be sent to me today (10 working days after the survey was done) in line with their terms of service. Their terms of service say 10 working days would be the maximum time to wait. The 10 working days are up today and I still haven't received the report! I am not happy with this service.”

“Just some red tape hoops to jump through. There is no recourse for the surveyor overlooking a problems. They have every angle covered to avoid responsibility. You have to get it done to appease the bank and the estate agents are all lying scum too. Best advice is get a builder to come have a look at the house with you and ball-park what you might spend fixing it up.”

“Booked and was told a date that the survey would take place. Then changed to a much later date with no notification why. When talking to the company they were very helpful when they wanted money but at no other time. Was charged for a flood report which surprise, surprise was useless and said that the property was in a high risk area - the property was in a seaside town! Although we believed that the company would be local to the property it was in fact based less than 2 miles from where we currently live across the other side of the country. How does that make it local?”

“Stated the obvious though missed out or downplayed important issues that have cost us money. Usual caveats about get another survey for electrics/heating/plumbing made survey a waste of money. I would recommend anyone asking if they should get a survey to pay a builder to give you a survey, they would get more useful feedback about costs.”

“I was directed to your site by Saga Insurance, who believed that I would be able to get an immediate, if approximate, free building costs estimate for insurance purposes. I couldn't find this as an option, only links to various surveyors who would provide a survey for a fee.”

“Customer service poor from a previous company used. Wanted me to do everything on line, different customer service every time I emailed or phoned. No communication once they had received info and payment. Double booked appointment even though it was arranged a few weeks in advance and having to rearrange with the customer just days before- Not professional.On a positive note the survey was thorough.”

“Tried to contact Ken Howson, he said he could not hear me on the phone and disconnected the call. Emailed him but no response. We did not contact Your Survey as their service seemed too impersonal.”
