He is highly recommended by myself and my husband."

He carried out the survey within days of instruction and produced a very detailed report the very next day which included information about the key points we asked him to bear in mind prior to visiting the property. When we went back with a couple of further queries after reading the report, Nick answered them very quickly within the same day. I would not hesitate in instructing Nick again in the future or recommending him. Thank you Nick for a great service, Kat and Charlie.

I will totally recommend Nick. He was very honest about not needing the most expensive survey (structural). We had the report within one week. He was very patient and explained everything in detail over the phone.

This was our first house sale experience and Nick helped put us at ease with this part of the process. Nick has been brilliant throughout our Help to Buy sale.

Prices were very competitive. Would definitely recommend.

This is the second time Nick performs my Homebuyer survey report and he always goes beyond my expectations, he carefully listens to the customer in order to respond to their needs with a sense of urgency. Nick possesses a wide breadth of skills and can adjust to fit the property specific situation in order to proactively address potential future gaps. Watch-out: you’ll want Nick to undertake the survey for all your next properties!

I instructed Nick for a full building survey report prior to purchase.

Nick has recently conducted a building survey for us and we are extremely pleased with the result. He was quick to respond to emails and the visit itself. The report came back in super quick time and was very clear yet comprehensive. Would definitely recommend.

My wife and I selected Nick for our structural survey. I can see why he has the reviews he has. His work is at the top of his industry and his professionalism matches. Turnover was about a week and the price and time beat competitors comfortably. If I ever buy again I know who I am going to. Thank you Nick!

Nick was communicative and informative, he completed the survey as agreed and sent through the documents in a speedy manor, both the electronic copy and then the hard copy. I would recommend him to others.

Nick did a full building survey for me, and helped me decide to pull out from the purchase. Also did a home survey report for another property which I'm now about to exchange contracts for - really excited. Nick has always been very professional, quick to generate the reports and responsive with all my questions and doubts. I strongly recommend him.

We used Nick for a survey on a property in New Malden. Nick was great, he produced a very high quality report and we also had a very useful discussion over the phone afterwards. I would definitely recommend Nick for any survey.

An absolutely fantastic team. I couldn't have asked for better movers who made the whole experience so much less stressful. Their experience made it all run smoothly and they went above and beyond. Very reasonably priced - I'd 100% recommend them to anyone. -Location: PO12 Reviewed in: June 2023

Nick delivered a HomeBuyers survey report which was comprehensive and highlighted any areas of concern. He was always happy to discuss his findings by phone and we found his knowledge and experience both reassuring and helpful in proceeding in the purchase of our home.

I have just recently worked with Nick for my purchasing process. He is pretty quick, very responsive even during weekend late evenings, and his report is accurate as it has been reviewed by Solicitors and other experts from the construction industry. I can confidently recommend him to my friends and network.

Excellent and reliable. I found Nick to be very honest in his dealings and incredibly professional. Would highly recommend.

I was surprised how much detail he put in the report. My partner and I did have a look at the property quite well, but Nick did a fantastic job. Thank you. We were so worried about all this cos it's our first house and was not sure what was happening. All fine now.

Very pleased with the service we received from Nick. He was quick to respond to emails and provided a thorough survey. A particularly useful element was highlighting areas we should draw our solicitor's attention to. He was also happy to answer a couple of follow up questions I had. I would recommend it without hesitation.

Nick did an excellent survey for us; it was extremely thorough and also helpfully set out the main issues for attention in a separate place. He was very customer focused and addressed all the specific issues we requested. Highly recommended.

Nick performed a Home Buyers Survey for us in May 2020. We ran the report by a family member who is ex. housing construction industry and he was very impressed, particularly in terms of the detail that Nick provided. We also had a follow-up question about our basement complying with building regulations which we popped over to Nick about a month after the report, with Nick providing an answer the same day. Definitely recommend.

Nick Cobb provided a professional, responsive service and I am very happy with the results. He covered every conceivable aspect of the house and I now feel fully informed to proceed with my purchase.

Nick offers a professional service at a really competitive price. he was very responsive and helpful with follow up questions after the survey was complete.

Highly recommended. A very prompt service from initial booking to report being received, and excellent value. Report was clear and concise.

Very detailed homebuyer report for a reasonable price. Fantastic turnaround and very knowledgeable when we had a few questions. Thanks Nick!

Excellent value and very prompt service - was able to complete the survey far quicker than most. Report was very concise, and happily answered some questions we had which means we're very confident about the property we're buying. Thanks!

Second time using Nick to survey a property and on both occasions the report has been detailed and sent within a couple of working days.

I was thinking of buying a property through auction, the property was in Bagshot, Surrey. Nick Cobb had been recommended by a friend. I asked Nick if he could meet me at the property at a very specific time as the auction house only offered very restricted viewing times. Nick arrived 10 mins early and had time to give me a full verbal description which was followed up with a detailed written report. I struck Gold using Nick, he pointed out so many defects that I would not have spotted. He found rising damp, subsidence, and defective roof structure. In addition to this, he found several weak spots on the exterior pebble dash and advised the external walls would need to be potentially stripped and new finish applied. When we added everything up we realized it would cost £10's of thousands to repair. The property went to auction and was sold for £166,000 over guide price. I can only assume they didn't get the property survey carried out. So to sum up, the survey was money well spent!!!

Nick did a house valuation for a share redemption on our share equity loan. Great person and great service. Very punctual and professional.

Nick completed 2 surveys for us, both were completed quickly after booking and reports were returned to us fast as well, competitive pricing too! Would recommend it.
