Ben Snape

I have had an excellent experience using 7H and Alec on two occasions. I had Level 2 surveys with very concise and to the point reports which focused on any major issues. On both occasions I was able to pick up the phone to Alec and he would explain the report and any findings as well as answering my questions. Also at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended and I would use again.
