TrustpilotReally prompt and helpful service
I received a quick response to my initial enquiry, and the process of arranging the survey was really simple. The survey was arranged promptly via my Estate Agent and I expected to get the written report back within a week to ten days, but I got it back the next working day, which was brilliant. I would definitely recommend using them. Emily was really helpful.

TrustpilotAn unsatisfied customer.
Your surveyor could not open the manhole cover to inspect the drains, told me that the corrugated roofing sheet may contain asbestos ( I had told him that this was my concern before the survey - so your survey added nothing to my knowledge). In the kitchen there were ceiling tiles that might have been polystyrene - by which I believe they meant expanded polystyrene: I reached up to the low point of the ceiling and touching the tiles indicated that they were not of expanded polystyrene. The surveyor also found some damp, but did not indicate where in the house it was.Verdict: a waste of my money and time

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, for a RICS Level 2 Survey, you only receive a high-level overview of the property. I think in this instance your expectations have exceeded the standards of the product.In response to your comments, please note as below: It is not uncommon for manhole covers to be rusted into place or covered with heavy objects. In this case we recommended a specialist CCTV camera survey from a drainage contractor.We also identified the corrugated asbestos roof sheets in the report. I cannot confirm asbestos content without a laboratory test, which was also recommended. We also identified polystyrene ceiling tiles in the report, and provided a condition rating and advised accordingly. In light of the damp, we provided the relevant advice by way of specialist advice or treatment. We do not within a level 2 survey provide specifics as to which individual wall(s) may or may not be damp. If you would like to discuss this further with a member of our team, please email survey@watsons-property.co.uk and we can arrange a suitable date and time. We will be more than happy to discuss your concerns.

GoogleWatsons were recommended to us by our estate agent and they did not disappoint. We used them for both a Level 1 survey on our selling property and a Level 2 survey on the property we were purchasing. Both surveys were completed in a timely manner and the reports produced were thorough.
We had to make further contact with Watsons about extending our Level 1 survey for the Help to Buy process. The turnaround time and customer service to obtain this letter was exceptional. Even when there was a further request, the letter was amended and sent back immediately.
The house buying process has been extremely stressful, but at all points, Watsons have been helpful, friendly, thorough and fast acting. We will definitely use them again for future purchases and would highly recommend their services.

TrustpilotAll good but ask about timescales
Used a comparison site for a survey quote this company best value. This was followed up by a phone call from the company. Sample report sent via email. Booked survey seemed like a lengthy time between booking and survey taking place over 2 weeks but went ahead anyway. From survey to receiving report 5 to 10 days. But after an email to the company they did get report to me within 5 days. Detailed report was useful in making decision to buy property. Would I use again? YES Positives, ease of booking, price, communication, standard of report, got what I paid forNegative or not so good. Only one timescales booking of survey to time survey completed and upto 10 for report delivery. But maybe this is the same for all companies. A good 9/10 thank you

Thank you for your detailed feedback, Jon. We appreciate you taking the time and also for the 5-stars! We tend to be fully booked two to three weeks in advance during really busy periods, so unless there are free slots in your area a two week wait can happen. An option here is to be on standby for a cancellation slot. However, we are pleased you went ahead with us and are happy with the results.

GoogleHello
I used this company to do a home buyers survey on a property I am hoping to purchase. I don't leave many reviews but exceptional service deserves a review. My survey was done on the agreed date and I received the report promptly. I had some questions about the survey and Gemma Adams and the Surveyor, James Price came back to me swiftly with answers, twice in a row. I was also helped out with the paperwork for commissioning the survey by Paul Smith. So that's 3 separate members of the team all doing a fantastic job. Well done all, i highly recommend you to others looking for a survey and keep up the good work.

The survey was booked in quickly and would've been done quicker if it wasn't for our vendor causing delays. Family member who is a builder said it was one of the best surveys he's seen and says i definitely got my money's worth! 10/10 service.
