Our surveyors have recently had the following feedback:
" I did follow up on one of the suppliers from the local surveyors direct web site,, Alan Wood Partnership from Scarborough and rang them first thing next morning. It was also a coincidence that when I later logged back on to my laptop the only follow up response I had from my previous nights enquiries was from the company I had already selected. The work was arranged very quickly due to an urgent sudden development and Paul Aspden (from the company) was very helpful. I was very satisfied with the results and the efficiency of the service..."
"I used Alan wood partnership the person who came down was good and courteous I have had a report off them, but maybe on going depends on the insurance companies, thanks to your site I got a local person which I think is always best. KInd Regards K P Brown..."

Quality of service : The structural engineer that visited my property was very thorough - nothing was 'too much' for him and he helped answer many questions my partner and I had.

Quality of service : I was waiting two weeks for a written report from the initial visit, as it did not arrive I rang the office on a couple of occasions and received quite a tart response from the receptionists. I then arranged another visit which went very well, and agreed a written report would follow within the next three days. That report has still not arrived two weeks later, I am still chasing them with no response and now Hull City Council are chasing them in support.
Value for money : I have not yet received a bill for the services and therefore cannot comment at this time.
Professionalism : The visit to premises was great and very attentive, however the follow up report requires some new processes to be put in place by this firm.

Dave, HullHi, in response to your feedback re Surveyor, I received a call from Dion Singleton of Alan Wood associates in Hull and given some advice on the telephone which he said he would be surprised if it did not address the problems we were encountering, if it did not address these problems to give him a call for further assistance.What a genuine chap he is and a pleasure to speak to, very rare today for any business to give you advice without the need of your cheque book.Thank you to Dion and the services of Local Surveyors Direct. Best Regards
