Good communication

Good communication from start to finish. Even though I added questions for the surveyor to comment on after we’d booked a date, he got back to us on everything we’d requested.

Very reliable and experienced

We have previously used Paul Summerfield to survey two properties and I would recommend him 100%.
The process through Gateway is fast and straightforward with a telephone call the same day the surveyor has been to the property followed by an email copy and hard copy if requested.
Paul is very knowledgeable and happy to thoroughly discuss the survey, good points and not so good.
Would be happy to use him again- though hopefully we won’t be moving house again!

It wasn't made clear where to sigh terms and conditions and frustrating to have to go through that procedure before I could have paper copy sent to me.
And then despite making it clear you had my address wrongly stated and promise to correct it, still sent to me addressed incorrectly . Luckily my postman had been alerted by myself this would probably happen !

Thank you for your 3 star review Margaret, we do appreciate the feedback.

I understand the terms are a little small on the email body, unfortunately as these are generated via our system, it is the standard font size, however we are making moves to have this increased to a larger size. To add there is nothing to sign on the terms, it's a simple copy and paste of a statement that is required to have on file so we have some acknowledgment in place to provide you cover and also to satisfy the RICS.

On the note about the address being incorrect, I've just looked back at the instructing email we received from you on the 11th February and it appears you may have given the incorrect number to us. When after viewing the report on email and you notified us of this and we did change the door number on the covering letter so it would reach the correct house. I will however look in to this to establish why it wasn't corrected. If you wish for the report to be correct to read the right door number, please do get in touch and we can issue you with an amended report.

Kind Regards,
Gateway Surveyors - Private Clients

Great service and quick turnaround

Great service from the start. Survey was completed really quickly and the report was really good quality. The traffic light system really helped break everything down and make it easy to see what action was needed.
