party wall surveyor

"We requested Ray Young , having been highly recommended to us by a previous client of his , who sang his praises, to carry out a full structural survey on a property close to water. The same day we received a draft report. He was thorough, meticulous, obliging, friendly, all carried out in a business-like manner. Nothing was too much trouble, we were able to discuss with him any points or concerns we had. We are considering interior changes and Ray has already helped us with his ideas and sent us draft plans.
Without hesitation, I would highly recommend Ray Young to anyone in the future requiring work within his professional field."

"I have recently bought a flat in Ryde, Isle of Wight. Ray Young conducted the pre-purchase survey for me. Since the flat is an old building and there were signs of previous damp, the survey was very important. I chose Ray because, when I talked to him on the phone, I got the impression that he knew what sort of survey I required. I was not disappointed. Ray responded quickly and efficiently. He went out of his way to get information on the possible causes of the damp, submitted the report promptly and, after submitting it, responded to numerous additional questions and concerns quickly and helpfully. I could not have asked for a more personal service. My next task is to replace the windows and, since it is a listed building, I require planning permission. I have asked Ray to do the planning application for me."

"I asked Ray to do a Building Survey for me on a property I was looking to buy. He provided excellent, clear advice that enabled me to make a sensible, balanced decision about whether to go ahead. I met Ray at the property after he had completed his inspection and he showed me where there were matters of concern and explained in detail what was wrong and what the future consequences of this were likely to be. Ray is obviously both experienced and independent, and not afraid to say it how it is. I think he saved me a lot of money and hassle. I would use him again for any future surveying work I might need."
