What our Clients say
Customer satisfaction and customer feedback has been our primary focus since we launched in 2001 and it’s always great to hear back from our building survey and building project customers.
We are so happy we chose Chawton Hill – Mark, our surveyor was brilliant. He was generous with his time and it was so reassuring to be able to look at the property together and benefit from his expertise. The meeting meant we were confident to proceed with the purchase, ahead of receiving the detailed report.
Mark knew his stuff and had time for us to ask questions. Happy with service provided. Felt I paid for knowledge which is of benefit rather than expert document formatting which is not.
