Valuation Surveys ( Domestic), Milton Keynes, W Liu, April 2021

 

 

 

 

 

Promptness of response :  They replied quickly taking all the payment upfront
Quality of service :  An engineer came to find out if a a wall I wanted to knock down was load bearing or not. He stayed 2 hours and the answer was: I am not sure, maybe it is a non structural wall. 95% it is not load bearing. I complained over the phone on the same day, after paying 240 pounds upfront, it is simply not acceptable! The day after, I received an email saying that in actual fact, the wall was load bearing. I was truly disappointed, these engineers should work with builders.

Efficient response from David French and Partners, surveyor appointment made within a few days. Verbal report given after inspection, photos take of problem and written report received with 10 days. Polite, knowledgeable Surveyor with comprehensive report. I may need a follow up visit should the problem worsen, but was assured by the Surveyor my house was safe. I would revisit the Surveyor, Mr Andrew Evans as I have confidence in him and the David French Partnership.

Quality of service :  I needed a Structural Survey done on a property I am planning to buy, because the mortgage lender's surveyor had found some possible issues during the valuation. The lender wanted them investigated more fully before agreeing to loan the money. I contacted two other Structural Engineers in the area but they had long lead times. But when I contacted David French Partnership and was able to book a visit the following Monday. Access was arranged directly with the estate agent. The lenders survey was emailed to the right person at David French so that the engineer could see what the problem was in advance and address it fully in his report. The report was emailed to me once done and was very thorough. Very impressed with the service and would highly recommend.

Promptness of response :  I needed a Structural Inspection carried out promptly at a property we were buying. I was contacted by David French Partnership the day after I made my initial enquiry on Local Surveyors Direct on Wednesday 6th Jan. Thankfully, Mr Andrew Evans was able to visit the property on the Friday 8th Jan. I was extremely pleased with their efficiency and professionalism, and the quick turn around time in having a report back to me, which I received by post the next day on Saturday. I contacted Andrew on the Monday after, and he was happy to discuss his findings and the report with me over the phone, as well as sending me a digital copy so that I could easily share it with my solicitor. Thank you very much for your services, of which I highly recommend.

The website was really clear and easy to use. Gave me exactly what I was looking for. I used David French Partnership. Andrew Evans was an absolute pleasure to deal with. He was professional, personable and approached the work with a can-do attitude. A clear and meaningful report was delivered promptly. Very reasonably priced for a top-notch service, with no hidden extras. Couldn't recommend them highly enough.

The website worked well and I ordered a structural report from the David French Partnership. The report from the structural engineer, Michael Thorogood, of David French Prtns was just what I required - very professional.
