Hi Terry,
Thank you very much for your prompt issue of the report it is very much appreciated. We are very impressed with the service and detailed report you have provided and will strongly recommend you to others in the future, thank you.
Terry attended my property in February 2023, I have been meaning to leave a review since then… that I have remembered to do so 3 months later should be testimony as to how impressed I was with the standard of service he offered.
Terry spent a couple of hours or so thoroughly inspecting my property, though his experienced eye quickly identified the minor issues that were causing what I thought would be a major problem.
He took the time to explain his process (always interesting to hear an expert talk about their work) and also how damp issues arise, and the actions that can be taken to minimise them.
Within a few days, I had a really detailed, comprehensive report that I can use to address the issues he identified, and also cite if anyone tries to suggest that more extensive work is required.
I’m confident that the price paid for the survey will be saved by only having to do what is necessary.
Also, Terry was excellent company, thoroughly nice, decent man, and I hope to run into him again (we live very close to each other).
Highly recommended.
