I am delighted with the service from SurveyWorld.
Our insurer ceased business and the new insurer refused to insure for subsidence risk, despite a Level 3 survey from our purchase 10 years ago not referring to any subsidence and there having been no issues in the decade we have lived here.
I found Paul at SurveyWorld via Bark and Paul gave me a useful and reasssuring phone call to discuss our situation and visited the house four days later to carry out a structural engineer's inspection on the property. He gave us a thorough explanation of the life of our 125 year old property and within two days we had his full report and a COSA.
Paul was so knowledgable, excellent at explaining in layman's terms and provided us with the reassurance we needed at a stressful time. I would recommend Paul and SurveyWorld to anyone in need of a structural engineer's report.

I found the process of dealing with this company and Paul in particular very straightforward. All my questions were responded to quickly and fully and I felt reassured I was dealing with a professional and through surveyor, Paul, who gave me a lot of helpful advice and information. This was particularly valuable as I was contemplating purchasing an older property whivh could potentially have a number of issues needing addressing. It gave me the reassurance that I could negotiate the purchase from an informed position. I would definitely reccomend Survey World. More...

But recent Paul from Survey world used his experience to challenge a wrong view which is make or break in the property industry. thanks for you what you do. kind regards Harps! More...

Christopher Thomas
Structural Engineer
I instructed Survey World to provide a specialist second survey on specific structural issues that required further clarification. Paul Weston provided very clear initial information on the phone outlining precisely the service that he would provide and the assessments that would be undertaken. He provided an extremely thorough written report as well as backing up his findings with a large portfolio of photographs. He is an extremely experienced structural engineer with many years in the industry and indeed I wish that I had used this company to carry out my initial RICS 3 Level Survey in the first place. I recommend this Survey World wholeheartedly. More...
Mr hardwidge
After contacting survey World we were quickly put in touch with Paul Weston who after agreeing a date time and price was on time and soon put you at ease with his professionalism.
We were needing a roof survey in order to check that expanding foam had not effected our roof structure.
After a short period of time Paul had inspected the roof space, took lots of evidence of the roof quality and then proceeded to leave and a couple of days later our comprehensive survey was with us.
I can not speak more highly about the service and Pauls friendly manner.
Its nice to know that there are companies out there that do still care.

Recently used their services for a structural survey on a residential property, very quick turn around.
I had received a call from Paul on Friday morning and by the following Thursday the surgery was completed and the next morning I had the report sent to me.
Less than one week and it was all sorted. Very friendly staff and very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend.

Structural Engineer
From the first phone call to access what was needed, to the survey itself, Paul was professional and friendly in his approach.
His knowledge and time in the business is a most valuable asset and he put our minds at ease with explaining every step of the process. Even payment was straightforward and easy and all correspondence from his office was prompt and courteous.
Both myself and my husband are very pleased with the service provided and we would happily recommend and use Survey World again.

Stephanie & Sam
5-Star Review for Paul and his team!
We are incredibly grateful to Paul for the immediate reassurance he gave us during a particularly stressful time with our lender.
We were starting to lose hope, but then Paul called me back, took the time to listen, and truly understood the difficult situation we were in.
Not only did he speak with me, but he was more than happy to explain the process clearly to my husband as well. Paul truly went above and beyond, going out to survey the property on a Saturday, calling us on a Sunday, and getting the report over to us so quickly.
We honestly can’t thank you enough, Paul. Your professionalism, empathy, and dedication made a world of difference. I will certainly be recommending your services to anyone in a similar situation.
Thank you again!

M Singh
I am completely delighted with the service. Paul was extremely helpful and understanding, and arranged an urgent survey for me. We booked it in for Thursday and when i received a call on Wednesday i assumed Paul was calling to confirm the appointment, but to my surprise he had carried out the survey. He also explained his finding to me and reassured me all is well. 24 hours later i had the report in which was detailed and written to a very high standard. Following on from this i received my mortgage offer. Special mention to Debbie also who kept me updated via email. Lastly if you require a Structural Engineers Report i would look no further than Survey World, as they are an honest, professional and reliable business. Thank you once again. More...
Max
Quick, efficient booking process. Paul was great, really knowledgeable and took the time to explain his findings to me on the day of his inspection. The report was then produced a few days later with lots of helpful photos and explanations of how to conduct the repairs. I look forward to working with them again in the future. More...

Adam
Structural Engineer
Paul provided an excellent service, undertaking a structural assessment for me as the seller of my bereaved partners house. He agreed to a price reduction due to the very limited assessment I needed following the buyers survey. He was able to complete the assessment within a few days and issue the report a couple of days later. He also agreed to discuss his assessment with the buyer at no extra cost. At what was a very stressful time for me he made the whole process very easy. More...

Aly
Paul and Debbie have been absolutely marvellous. We needed to be re-assured on the results of a level 3 survey and instructed Paul to do a structural survey on our potential forever home and I could not have asked for a better service from the phone call before and after the survey and the report sent in a timely manner we are now 100% confident in our choice. I would recommend Paul to any house buyer that want a piece of mind and clear answers. We will get in touch again when we decide to extend the house! More...

Excellent service at a difficult time for me. I had to arrange a structural report on the house I wanted to purchase and I had no idea where to go. Within minutes after looking on Bark and sending a message a lovely man called Paul called me and he was so helpful and reassuring.

Structural Engineer
I initially spoke to Paul in the phone and immediately felt I was in the hands of a professional. He has many years of experience especially in my local area. When he came to our house he was really friendly and professional, he took time and did not rush the appointment, both my husband and myself felt very comfortable. He took the time to go through in detail the specifics about our house and also gave us sound advice on other areas not related to the initial query. We were really pleased that we chose Paul and would highly recommend him to all. Thanks again surveyworld!! More...

I received great service from Paul and everyone at Survey World. We were moving house and it was all at risk of falling right at the last minute. Amazingly Paul was able to attend the property in question the same day that I contacted them. He produced the required report by lunchtime the next day as promised, put us all at ease and saved the whole chain. We now are very happy in our new home, thanks to Paul and Survey World, so thank you VERY much. I would strongly recommend More...

Spotted things that were missed by other companies. Debbie was great also, every email answered promptly and ensured everything went through smoothly. Survey report was great. Concise and to the point, no confusion.
Thanks again

Innocent
Structural Engineer
I needed a structural survey done urgently on a residential property in order to secure a mortgage. I advertised the job and Survey World contacted me promptly.
They understood the urgency of my situation and took it very seriously. It is no exaggeration to say they took the matter "personally" in a way that pleasantly surprised me. They listened to me to understand my concerned in a reassuring way. By their professional and confident conduct I was quickly reassured that all will be ok. Normally the survey and report would take weeks. However, they made room in their diary to get me the report ASAP, within 24 hours, depending on how soon they can get access to the property. Paul Weston was the structural engineer assigned to the case. Getting access to the tenanted property was not easy. They liaised persistently with the letting agent to arrange urgent access.
As soon as they secured appointment they attended without delay. Paul completed the survey on 22/10/2024 and I received the report on 23/10/2024 at around 9am.
I give them top mark on customer service, professionalism, industry knowledge and reliability.
I am extremely delighted with the service and will highly recommend without hesitation.

Naz
Structural Engineer
I am a FTB and found a large crack in my new house's concrete floor on the first day I collected the keys. I contacted Paul and his team in a panic not knowing what to do. Paul arranged a site visit within 2 days of me making initial contact. He arrived, carried out his wonderful work and I had the full structural report a day after his visit. While Paul was on site, he also took me through exactly what was happening with the floors in my new house, which helped put my mind at ease. I cant express how grateful I am to Paul and for the work he did - prior to his visit I was a nervous wreck and had not been able to sleep due to the stress and worry. After Pauls visit, I finally was able to get a good nights sleep. If Bark allowed, I would be giving him a 10 star review. Thankyou Paul, Debbie and the whole team for everything, you guys are life savers. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommended 10/10. More...
Jon
Had a recently had a survey done by Paul, and was incredibly impressed by his thoroughness, professionalism and understanding. He is the first person I would get in touch with if/when I need a survey. Paul goes the extra mile and puts you at ease with his friendliness, compassion and knowledge. For anyone who wants a survey, I personally think that there is no one better than Paul from Survey World . Thank you Paul and the rest of the team. I would highly recommend Paul for a survey.

Emma
