Good for standard Level 3 survey

The survey itself was efficiently done. Follow-up questions took some time to be responded to and were not able to go beyond the original survey information.

From the first contact to supplying the report, Gateway did exactly what they stated they would do.

We found them very professional in everything they did for us. The report itself was comprehensive, easily understood and exactly what was required.

The surveyor was clear, concise and approachable.

Sorry to hear the property purchase fell through, we hope you find another one very soon and thank you for leaving us a 5* review, we really do appreciate it.

Best of luck with your continuing search!

A thorough report.

I was pleased with how quickly the property was surveyed following my request. The high-priority actions were brought to the agents attention as well as an additional repair required. These have been brought to the sellers notice for action. I await a response.

Great service. Booked survey within one weektime and got report after two days

Great service. They booked my survey within one week and got my report after two days of the survey. Great report. I am satisfied with the service. After the survey and sending the report, the Surveyor cleared my queries about the property over the phone. I am a first time home buyer , but did my mininal research on the surveys before booking gateway and I believe I got what I am expected.

Great experience through initial booking to final report. James made sure to call ahead of the visit and discuss some items that we wanted extra attention paid to. He went above and beyond to access some difficult to access areas. Professional and timely report, very happy. Would recommend. Thanks

Thorough and Clear Survey

Anthony was thorough with his survey. He had given a call whilst at the property to check on request regarding a wall. The report was clear with no ambiguous description. I have been able to get a hold of him to get some direction as we move closer to complete our purchase of the property.

Disappointing

Not as much as photos and as deep as what we expected from the RICS report.

Reply from Gateway Surveyors - Private Clients

Sorry to read you are disappointed with our Level 2 Gateway Buyer Report and you felt it only deserved a 1 star rating.

Our Gateway Buyer Report (which is what was undertaken on the property you are purchasing and not the RICS Home Survey) contained 20 photos to accompany what the surveyor felt should be brought to your attention as the buyer. This 30 page report is a thorough inspection of the property and focuses on defects and other issues the surveyor considers to be significant and/or urgent.

We feel disappointed with your rating, however please do get in contact with us should you wish to elaborate on your review or discuss matters further.

Very helpful booking appointment. Phone call before survey to see if I had any questions/concerns. Report was done quickly. Opportunity to discuss with surveyor if I had any queries re the report.
Very in depth report, worth the money.
