Report
Excellent experience with D.A. Reid property surveyors. Was able to get a prompt appointment and Doug was honest about what type of survey would be best. Very thorough report at reasonable prices. We have since moved in and have used the report to re-explore the property and direct sensible questions to the management company. Only slight downside is it can sometimes be difficult to get hold of them via email, but always get prompt response on the phone. Thanks, team!

Report
I cannot recommend D.A Reid Surveyors enough. I talked with Doug several times before my survey and he was always extremely helpful and had lots of useful information. I had a couple of items I wanted him to look at specifically and he was only to happy to do so. The report I received was very detailed and Doug went over and above to give me as much information as possible. I highly recommend D.A Reid surveyors!

I was so excited to be informed by my agent that a survey had been arranged to sell the family home.
The following morning the door bell rang and looking through the bay window I noticed a peculiar middle aged man. The surveyor had arrived! As soon as I opened the door the fist comment was 'the wiring to the door bell is not right! Not right! I spent nearly 80.00 buying the Jingle doorbell from Wayfair. He made a note of this in his little red Collins note book. Not very professional ! Then he took his cheap plastic shoes off and put on a pair of tartan slippers. Is this normal? I did find him

Courteous, thorough and very, very knowledgeable. Doug is a mine of information about local housing and has a keen eye for detail.
Our valuation was carried out on time, at a fair price and with excellent communication.
