Exceptional service
I found Edwin Lake via recommendations on a local Facebook Group. I was not disappointed. Amazing service and great communication from the start.
I had a Level 2 Survey and as a First Time Buyer who didn’t really know what they were doing, I really appreciated that time was taken to ring and talk me through the survey after it had been completed that day. The full report followed shortly after and it was very clear and comprehensive. The section specifically for the solicitors
came in handy.
I would highly recommend Edwin Lake, and would definitely use again if I ever moved.
Thorough and comprehensive survey
Thorough and comprehensive survey, friendly staff, would highly recommend.
Excellent, professional service!
I was extremely impressed with the service I received. From my initial request for a quotation, through Richard's site visit and right up to receiving the final report, the company was consistently prompt, professional and helpful. The pricing was very reasonable compared with other quotes I received.
The whole process was handled efficiently and with excellent communication throughout from Emma.
I would not hesitate to recommend their services.

Level 2 Survey
I recently used Edwin Lake to carry out a survey on a property I was purchasing . In the end I didn't go ahead with the purchase due to many complications and the process was also made tricky including access for survey because of the vendors .
It was a challenging time for me but I am very grateful that I had chosen Richard and Emma for the survey. They were extremely knowledgeable, efficient and professional whilst being very supportive as well as generous with their advice and time . The survey was carried out very thoroughly and with great detail .I will definitely be using them ,hopefully in the not to distant future when I find another property and wouldn't hesitate too recommend them to friends and family . Thank you both
Highly recommend! Professional, thorough and honest!
Emma was extremely helpful from the moment I made contact. As a first time buyer I found it quite confusing however Emma explained everything in detail and made sure I understood the process and what was involved.
When Richard was at the property completing the survey, he called me to talk me through his findings and explain in detail what would be on the report and why. He was extremely thorough, honest and helpful. I received the report within 10 working days.
I would absolutely recommend and will also use them again.
Fantastic service from Edwin Lake
Fantastic service from Edwin Lake. From the moment I first spoke to Emma on the phone I knew I was in good hands. Zero pressure and so helpful through the entire process. We needed to reschedule due to timelines with the seller and they were brilliant at being accommodating. Richard who completed the survey was very thorough in going through everything with me on the phone, and the report was very good. Happy with my level 2 survey, thank you. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Edwin Lake are an excellent company to deal with. Emma and Richard were both very helpful and informative. Richard went through everything during the survey and everything on the report. Would highly recommend.
We used Edwin Lake to complete a survey.
We recently used Edwin Lake to complete a survey for our house purchase. We were impressed with the service that they provided from start to finish. The communication from Emma and the Surveyor Richard who carried out the inspection was excellent. We would happily use their services again.
Survey report
My first contact was a lady called Emma, she was so helpful and really lovely to speak to on the phone, she arranged my survey, Richard was delightful. He phoned me on the day of the survey, he talked me through step-by-step so I understood everything he was telling me, the survey report he wrote was excellent, could understand everything on it and explained very well, thank you so much for everything you helped me with.
Great service
Very reliable service from the team from start to finish and a thorough survey undertaken. Also a very detailed report which Richard went through verbally before issuing which was most helpful. Would definitely recommend this company for all survey/ valuation requirements.
Prompt arrival
Prompt arrival, friendly and valuation as expected. Would definitely recommend to others.
Very thorough survey with detailed…
Very thorough survey with detailed report. Richard discussed the findings with us and was available for further questions. The office team were also very helpful in setting up the survey and answering questions - working extra hours to ensure we received the full survey report in a timely manner.
The survey helped to clarify the work needed on an old house prior to purchase and will be a useful resource now we have moved in. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Richard and the team at Edwin Lake to others.
Fantastic service from start to finish
Fantastic service from start to finish. Emma handled all the communication and scheduling — she was superb, friendly, and incredibly accommodating despite our tight timeline. Richard carried out the Level 1 survey and was highly professional, delivering an exceptionally detailed and thorough report. Both were brilliant to deal with. 100% recommended.
Excellent and reliable company
Richard was extremely helpful and professional when carrying out a valuation of our house. We could not recommend them enough as a trusted company to assist with moving house.
Excellent service and detailed, thorough report!
We used Edwin Lake after my sister had an excellent survey experience with Richard. From the initial moment of contact, both Emma and Richard were helpful, accommodating and communicative. Prior to the survey we were asked if we wanted Richard to focus on any aspect of the property or had any initial concerns. Richard rang immediately after the survey with verbal feedback and ran through every aspect he had looked at. We then received a very detailed report and had an immediate response when we asked for further details on something he mentioned. We couldn’t fault anything about the experience and recommend Richard and Edwin Lake to anyone. Thank you, you have given us peace of mind in the daunting process of buying our first home!
Excellent
Excellent. Very comprehensive survey and friendly interactions with both Richard and Emma. Richard took the time to go through the survey with me at length over the phone which was really helpful, and has been available and quick to respond to my questions. He clearly spent a long time at the property, and provided a very impressive level of detail in the survey. Thank you!
Great service and communication
Thanks to both Richard and Emma for making the survey process so easy! After calling to arrange an L2 report at a busy time of year Emma managed to find a spare timeslot that sped the process up. Richard took the trouble to call on the same day as visiting the property to report his findings and areas of note, before following up with the full report within a week. The report itself was very thorough and easy to understand and included helpful photos of some features highlighted in the text. We would happily recommend Edwin Lake!
