Report
All staff were really helpful when on the phone. The turn around from booking the survey and having the survey completed was only 2 days, and then to get the report back was only a further 4 days. The actual report was thorough and accompanied by relevant images that really help.

Report
Extremely poor and sloppy building report. We received a big chunky report, which was 95% notes on building standards rather than notes on the actual building itself. The report was obviously a copy + paste job with some references clearly made for another property. Writing this review to protect anonymity so excuse lack of details, but the surveyor failed completely to look at a key part of the house. There was substantial cracks in the property which they failed to document as well as a very large and obvious part of the house that was clearly broken and needed urgent repair. There was a key

Having dealt with hundreds of homebuyers surveys over the years there is a general standard you get used to however after seeing how detailed a survey was from Cosey Homes it has set the bar going forward. By far one of the most thorough reports I've ever received. Thank you. Senior Property Consultant. Forces Homes

Very helpful and professional team of people with excellent communication skills. They carried out a survey for me on a property 150 miles away from where I live and they took care of everything. Marcello was very thorough and phoned me when he'd completed the survey and gave me an outline of his findings followed by a comprehensive written report. Very friendly chap.
