Report
Engaged this firm to undertake a full structural survey on a very old property that I was considering purchasing, and subsequently bought (2020) because of their survey, as they are RIBA, AABC, and ARB accredited and so should be experts in the materials used in older properties, and competent with regards to the structural integrity. I am now left having to post this review, after a multitude of problems have been highlighted since we moved in, and the senior partner has declined multiple offers to inspect the defects for himself and has now broken off all communications.
