Contacted a couple of suggested surveyors and received no reply. Contacted a local estate agent for a recommended surveyor which was soon sorted.

The site only seemed able to deal with house purchase surveys and respondents had not read what I had actually requesters

Really sorry but I couldn't make the website work for me. The support person was very helpful but I found another way round getting the info I was looking for.

Only produced one viable quote from a firm that was booked up so had to do my own search anyway.

Recommendations based on assumptions without reading the enquirers requests. This leads to irrelevant quotes wasting the time of the Surveyors looking for business and the potential customer. In the end I phoned local estate agents for recommendations with better results.

Only 2 options give, one of which was very expensive, the other could not offer a visit for 4 weeks. Found a fully qualified surveyor myself who did it within 2 weeks and was cheaper than either of the 2 you offered, so not particularly impressed overall

The survey ordered was a level 2 homebuyer report, the report whilst it summed the property up as low risk, was riddled with a number of inconsistencies Including such errors as stating that the property was on mains drainage when it had a septic tank. Also that the stairs were in good condition when the property was a bungalow with no stairs. Had my wife and I not viewed the property during a holiday break, (we are relocation from Kent) this report would have potentially given us concerns when their were none. Other faults with the report included no inspection of the loft space when there was clearly access and a ladder, and the estimated build date was guessed at and was out by at least 30years (younger). This is not a full list of the issues with the report. All of our findings were sent to the surveyor and some were corrected or removed. No follow up survey was hinted at or offered to fill in the gaps.

Went with a surveyor through your website, who conducted a survey but then failed to answer my queries - have chased for 3 weeks. Looking into formally complaining. Would be good to know how you vet the people who advertise on your site.

Hi All our surveyors are regulated by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, and are bounds by their professional codes of conduct. You haven't named the particular surveyor who carried our your survey, but do feel free to add an appropriate review to their profile: https://www.localbuildingsurveyor.co.uk/types-of-survey-and-get-estimates/rics-surveyor-directory.html These are a valuable source for other users of our site as well as feedback to us and the surveyor in question...

The search was easy to use but only gave us one person - which was not what we wanted as we always look for several quotes. It may be that living in North Wales there are few surveyors ? Anyway we resorted to more traditional sources and Google.

Unfortunately one of the surveyors on the list was in lockdown and some of the other ones were too expensive. I ended up instructing a surveyor recommended by a friend.

Disappointing - details of only two surveyors were supplied. Details for one of the surveyors were incorrect - the website and email address no longer exist. The second surveyor contacted never replied to my email.

I asked for the survey on 5th March and it took place on 9th March. As at 23rd March, I am still waiting for the survey results.

Both surveyors were far too far away from me, and their reviews were not very good, so used Google instead and found someone local to me.

Gave 3 contacts with quotes: one didn't hold a MRICS, one had a home contact number that was never answered and one was based 200 miles away.

Whilst I got several responses within minutes its clear none of them had read my questions. Shame. They were clearly generated by robots, although one company did call me instead.

Very little choice of surveyors in the geographical area that I am buying a house in (West Wales) - provided a choice of two, neither who were able to provide the services requested. In the end I found a surveyor through a Google search.
