Report
The Survey carried out by Jonathan Owen of Clarke & Jay is very comprehensive. It will be useful to refer to when rectifying all items mentioned over the short and long term. There is more information contained than I had hoped for and the whole process was seamless and professional. Very impressed

Report
We are very pleased with the surveying service provided by this company. The surveyor himself spent a considerable amount of time viewing our potential new property. On the same day he viewed the property, he telephoned us with an overview. This was followed within a few days with a very thoughtful, very comprehensive very honest report. At all points of the process there was the opportunity for a telephone chat, when any questions we had were answered frankly. The support staff were also brilliant to deal with. All members of staff were kind and courteous. My wife and I strongly recommend this
