efficient response and good service

Super quick. Really happy with ease of website

TLDR: it's a budget survey service with a responsive representative and a "take it or leave it" attitude to any follow-up questions. Details: I ordered a homebuyer (level 2) survey. Autumn was responsive and helpful as a company representative, and the surveyor was available within a reasonable timeframe. The report was issued 7 days later, on the deadline date. The survey itself included only a performative check of the kitchen and the report did not comment on pipe leakage beneath the sink, absence of an extractor fan, or misting inside a kitchen window. The report referenced furnishings as blocking access, except I was also in the property and could have moved them if I had been asked. The survey also did not involve any floor area measurement, but the report referenced an erroneous floor area figure that was identical to one in the property's EPC report. (Both my measurements and the seller confirmed the area, exaggerated by 50% of the actual area, to be incorrect; and the seller has ordered a new EPC survey to address the issue.) Since the floor area forms part of the valuation assessment, I asked the surveyor whether the quoted figure was from the EPC report or, if not, what components it was based on. Knowing what the actual area was from analogous properties in the block, my own measurements, and the seller's confirmation, I also asked what the valuation would be if it was based on the reduced floorspace. In reply, I got two very officious and defensive replies that denied any reliance on the EPC report, ignored all requests to identify the components and their dimensions that were used instead, ignored my request for an alternative valuation based on the lower area, and culminated instead in "I have provided my explanation in respect of my opinion of the floor area which would need to be costed in relation to the rebuilding of the property in the event of a total loss for insurance purposes. Whether you choose to accept this advice, or not, is entirely your prerogative." So, take it or leave it. If the survey you get covers everything you think it and should and raises no questions - congratulations, you saved a hundred pounds relative to other surveyors. If you do have questions, you might not leave satisfied.
