Thoroughly recommended. Jim Cargill was very thorough and extremely responsive when I had any questions (and I had many !). The survey was carried out promptly and the cost was less than the majority of the quotes I received for the same work. An overview e-mail summary was provided within 24 hours and the full survey report not long after that. I'm quick to pick up companies if they offer a poor service; but the service provided was always thorough, prompt and faultless. My sincere thanks to Jim Cargill.

Building Surveys, Cheltenham, P BOYLE - June 2020

 

 

 

 

 

Promptness of response :  Jim responded to my enquiry straight away - and it was immediately clear I was talking to him, not dealing with canned responses. Jim is a sole trader, which is of benefit here, as you know you're getting the best.
Quality of service :  Jim's service has been second to none. Pre, during and post the survey he has been easy to contact and ask questions - he clearly genuinely wanted to understand the property. Jim's observations, investigations and enquiries were significantly above and beyond that which you might expect for a homebuyers survey. He highlighted multiple aspects we would not have considered but was also clear as to how much of an issue these items may be.
Value for money :  Jim cost ballpark the same as previous surveys we have had done, but delivered 100x the insight. No question of value for money.
Professionalism :  Jim is absolutely professional - but also crucially is really easy to understand.

Professionalism :  Any communication was answered quickly, and we were kept informed about when the survey would be conducted and when we would receive the completed report. I would have no hesitation in recommending James to anyone needing a survey for their house.

Promptness of response :  James responded to my enquiry on the same evening that I had made an initial online request!

Absolutely fantastic service. Very efficient, received a call the same day with an overview of the finds, then received an email the next day displaying the full report. Jim was very helpful and took a real interest in the survey, he was more than happy to explain the findings so I understood them. He also gave his own opinion on what may have been causing certain issues in the house and after some queries with the seller, we discovered his theories were spot on. Very friendly and knowledgeable surveyor, I would definitely recommend him to anyone.
