I booked a supposedly rics registered surveyor to go in and do a survey on a house I am trying to buy. They said 3 weeks. In that time I heard nothing from him and my phonecalls went unanswered. Imagine my horror when I discovered that this surveyor appeared to have changed his name slightly from a different name..I found on the internet his previous name with some very seriously bad reviews 1 star. Which I assume were truthful as they mentioned the 3 week period and lack of contact, inability to be able to be contacted and the poor standard of work he did carry out. Everyone was saying to avoid him. I rang and emailed straight away to tell him I no longer needed him to carry out the survey. The phone wasn't replied to but he did respond on email..He turned out to have emailed 2 days before to say he now wasn't able to go in til 1st week in January and agreed I could cancel if I wanted. This would have been a lot of money to lose if I had let him carry out shoddy misleading work. This person is called DVE surveyors based in Kendal. The bad reviews were under DJA Surveyors but based at the same address. I believe that the bad reviews are genuine and have been hidden by a name change but search the address ans they come up. I just hope that the structural engineer firm I have now paid to do a survey yesterday were trustworthy and do a properly carried out detailed report.

Thank you for your review. However, we do not have this company registered on our site as either DVE Surveyors or DJA Surveyors, so we believe you may have found them from elsewhere.

Hopeless website - the Captcha to check that I am human used US terminology and showed US pictures resulting in it taking 5 minutes to get it right - then found no surveyors!

I am not used to or familiar with writing reviews of any kind but the Local Building Surveyors have invited me to comment on my online experience and I find this difficult to respond to because I do not believe that individuals such as me - who are completely unqualified to comment - are invited to do so. What sort of a world are we creating ? Thanks

Thank you. I have not heard from either surveyor. Not surprising really, as they are both out of area!

The company that was first on the list were shocking. Quick to respond initially and then I couldn’t get to speak to them after that. Went with solicitor recommendation in the end. More expensive but great service

The surveyors put forward are not local surveyors, but are regional or national firms

Shall have to be brief, as do not have internet access at home at present. I got quotes for some surveys but not for the more detailed ones, as it said something along the lines of surveyors are not visiting properties during the coronavirus pandemic. Found this rather strange: how do you conduct a detailed survey if you do nor visit the site?

Dear Andrew I'm afraid you may have misunderstood the message along with the results. Some surveyors are not undertaking inspections at present. Those are not being returned in results, and the message is simply to point out that because some are not currently taking instructions at the moment, you may receive fewer results than normal. Those that are returned should still be carrying out inspections in the normal way.

Used the website to search for a local surveyor. The results suggested that due to COVID a lesser number of companies would be available. The search returned ONE company! We contacted them directly to enquire about availability and as yet (7 days later) they have not made any response. Cannot rate anything other than very poor on that basis.

The reason I only gave it one star is simple, thee inspection was supposed to take place on Tuesday 10th Nov, 2020. Today is 12th only two days later, but the idiots who run the site have sent me this to fill in, and as I dont even know if the inspection took place let alone any report, how can I comment on it. The idiots sent this from so I am filling it in....

Having had the email from you giving details of White Horse Surveyors, I sent them an email with all the details about my intended purchase and never heard anything. I also phoned and left a message but they never phoned back. Completely useless and a waste of time.

I did the search for a local surveyor and tried to contact the one that appeared at the top of the list by phone and email and I still haven’t had a reply from them. Not great!
