Client Testimonials
Here's what our latest clients have to say about their experience with us.
Alec was very responsive throughout the whole process from quote to report. Professional and would not hesitate to use again
We used 7H to survey our planned purchase. We found the report to be comprehensive and insightful. Alec was happy to spend time after we had received the report to answer our questions. Very happy to recommend the company.
Thank you so very much for carrying out such a clear comprehensive survey for us. I particularly appreciate how you were able to ensure our questions about the building were answered and how well laid out the report was.
Really pleased I chose 7H for my house survey. Very efficient and friendly answering my questions beforehand, gave advice as to which survey would be best for me (in my case not recommending the most expensive one) and survey came back to me in the time specified and for a reasonable price.
In the process of buying a house, we needed a L2 survey completed and reached out to 7H after a recommendation from our friends. Very glad we did as the service was friendly, efficient and the report provided was clear and met our requirements. We were also suggested a survey relevant to our specific needs instead of proposing the most expensive option, which was much appreciated. Would not hesitate in using again or recommending to others.
Would definitely recommend Alec at 7H Surveyors. The Building Assesment report is very clear to understand and detailed. This is the second time we have used Alec and have found him very helpful and informative on both occasions.
Alec did a fantastic survey on the property we are buying.He was also very patient as the owner of a previous property we were buying decided to take it off the market whilst he was standing at the door waiting for entry to carry out the survey.We were very impressed with the comprehensive report we recieved and we highly recommend 7H.
Excellent thorough building surveyors. Clear, easy to read reports
