Efficient, Thorough and Professional

We've had dealings with Tom and Martin - A fantastic service from start to finish. The survey quote was provided in full with no hidden costs, and the report itself was completed promptly, and both the seller and buyer were impressed with the turnaround time. The detailed run-through of the report was extremely helpful and demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise, which also helped the sale/ purchase sail through smoothly. Highly recommended.

Easy to book!

I’ve booked in a level 3 survey with Novello. I had some issues with getting a valuation as I needed a specific type of survey for this, Marni Manuwa has gone above and beyond with helping us facilitate the request. The team are very responsive and keep you updated as things progress, would recommend booking with Novello

Far exceeded any expectation i had

Far exceeded any expectation i had . The surveyor ashad was incredibly professional , informative and detailed. Level 3 report saved us buying a house that would have cost in hidden issues around 85k to put right . Invisible structural damages , support damage, damp this list was endless.
And no i have not received any benefit for this review and yes i don't normally bother to do them. William

Novello Charted Surveyors

I booked Novello Charted Surveyors on recommendation from my Estate Agent. Danny Price rang on the day of the survey and asked if there were areas I wanted him to concentrate on and then he rang me after to let me know what he had found.
I was extremely impressed with the service received by Danny Price and would recommend him to friends and family.

Fantastic service throughout

Excellent customer service from the staff taking the calls and the booking team. Kept me well informed during the process. Surveyor 'Danny' phoned before the survey to discuss concerns, and after with an overview of findings and recommendations. Having used other surveyors previously this company are by far superior and would highly recommend.

I would highly recommend using Novello Chartered Surveyors to carry out your home survey. The whole process took just over one week and the communication from them was excellent. We opted for the Pro option and the report we received was very precise and clear which made it easy to identify the issues. Ian also phoned me prior to receiving the report and explained the overall condition of the property which also helped.
