John is now a proud member of the Residential Property Surveyors Association (RPSA) which works to the highest standards in the industry, to help residential property buyers on their path to buying their next home.

With you the client at the forefront of our service, we will dedicate the time needed to deliver you the peace of mind you need to make an informed decision about the purchase of your next home.

rpsa members

RPSA surveyors are recommended by HM Government in their ‘HOW TO BUY GUIDE’ and are the surveyors of choice for many high street banks, building societies, and lenders.

​

If any significant issues are uncovered by the survey, you can ask the seller to pay for them to be fixed before you purchase, or you can negotiate your offer to take into account the cost of the work.

Five Star Service

I have no hesitation in highly recommending this company!

​

I received a 'five-star' service from John throughout the whole process, from the initial telephone call explaining the options and providing a quote, carrying out an extremely thorough survey inspection (4 hours!), providing a detailed report complete with useful, arrowed photographs, to responding promptly to all queries and giving much appreciated follow-up advice and recommendations.

​

He could have not been more professional or helpful; thank you so much John!

 TESTIMONIALS

ROBBIE

I would highly recommend

From when I first contacted John to request a quote, he was rapid with all responses and very helpful in explaining all elements. Once booked, he liaised with the agent to complete the survey inspection and a report was provided shortly after meaning we were able to swiftly complete on the property. 

 

The survey was well-priced and included an initial pre-inspection phone call to ask about any concerns I had with the property, followed by a post-inspection phone call to summarise his findings. A post-survey call covered questions I had after reading the report. At no point did he rush and we talked for as long as was necessary.

 

His survey was very detailed. It gave me the confidence that there would be no major hidden issues found once we moved in. The survey was extremely helpful during negotiations and helped us to prepare for work that would be necessary. 

 

The report was well laid out and easy to follow and interpret. Additional information on elements was included as well as images of all parts discussed.

 

I would highly recommend his services.

Exceptional Service

Brick Lane Surveyors provided an exceptional service to us and we would absolutely recommended them to friends and family.

 

The level of detail provided within our report was fantastic and gave valuable insight into our new property.

 

John was prompt and thorough with communication - we had a thorough discussion before our survey and he helped us with a late request. The report itself was extensive and delivered a huge amount of reassurance.
