Homebuyers Survey
Personal communications and personalised service were excellent. Was easily able to follow up a couple of queries and was also encouraged to get back to them if anything further emerged. Definitely would use again and recommend to others.

What a brilliant experience! Andrew and Simon undertook a level 3 survey on a house we are thinking of buying. The phone call by Andrew immediately following the survey was incredibly insightful and reassuring for us. Can't wait to read the report when it arrives!

Excellent service
I booked a level 2 survey and this was carried out very swiftly indeed. I received a call from the surveyor after their visit where they provided a brief overview which I found very helpful and reassuring. Nothing was too much trouble throughout the whole process and I received the typed copy of the survey report very quickly following the visit. The report was extremely thorough and comprehensive. Overall, a first class service and I would highly recommend Kempston-Parkes and their services.

Level 2 Home Survey and Drone Report
The survey was detailed and comprehensive and the surveyor was more than happy to explain his findings in more detail.
Where more information was required, or remedial action necessary, he volunteered details of how to obtain that information or could recommend tradesmen to carry out the work.
His approach was friendly and advisory and we felt that we were in very capable hands.

First class service
Having been recommended to me,Kempston-Parkes contacted me promptly, set out very clearly the service they could provide and the attached prices. They then organised in a very short period of time the survey of the interested property. The property having been surveyed I was immediately contacted by the surveyor to give me a concise overview and within one working day I was provided with a comprehensive written report. Throughout my dealings with Kempston-Parkes they have always been readily available to answer any questions. The surveyor himself has made it clear he will be very happy to answer any questions concerning the survey.I can say that I have been provided with a very efficient, reassuring and friendly service.

A detailed and helpful survey.
An efficient service with an exceptionally detailed report and the chance to have a chat with the surveyor to ask any specific questions. Just what’s needed when buying a property.

A very positive experience!
Our Homebuyers Report was thorough and clear, and the surveyor took time to talk us through this written report, highlighting key points and answering questions. He was reassuring, extremely practical and helpful. Everyone we have dealt with at the firm has been efficient, friendly and generous in their approach.We would not hesitate to recommend this company other house buyers.

Avoid and lack of services
I wouldn't use these guys again. The report says something else and the Surveyors guy saying something else on the phone totally mis match. Almost costing me more money on the roof. If you do get report don't listen read the report properly. Lack of miss communication of the Surveyors and the company does not want to take any responsibility.
Please think about it.
When I spoke to management director he said we can't do anything about it when he Surveyor guys call me said everything is fine. Yes so response to the reply please be careful the report says something else and the Surveyors say different so please read it or don't use them.

Dear Mr Patel,
We note your one star review, but feel it is important for our clients, present and future to understand some of the background.
We undertook an RICS Home Survey Level 2 for you.
In this report we made the following statements:
This property is considered to be a reasonable proposition for purchase at a price of £***,000 (*** ******* Thousand Pounds), provided that you are prepared to accept the cost and inconvenience of dealing with the various repair/improvement works reported. These deficiencies are common in properties of this age and type. Provided that the necessary works are carried out to a satisfactory standard, I see no reason why there should be any special difficulty on resale in normal market conditions.
You should obtain reports and quotations for all works mentioned in this report with a Condition Rating 2 and Condition Rating 3. These reports and quotations should be sent to the surveyor for further consideration as these are likely to have an effect on the valuation figure given above.
The main roof is hipped covered with natural slates with no underlay. Some of these parts were hidden from view.
The hip irons to the base of the roof hips are missing and need repair or replacement.
A number of slates are cracked, slipped and damaged with daylight visible within the roof space, and localised repairs are needed.
The mortar pointing to the hip and ridge tiles is cracked and loose, and localised repairs are needed.
Evidence of previous repair using metal clips indicative of 'nail fatigue or sickness'. This occurs as the covering nears the end of its useful life.
Several of the neighbouring properties have been re-covered suggesting that the roof covering of this property may be near the end of its useful life.
You may need to budget for the cost of replacement within the near future.
Condition Rating 3.
We also highlighted several other areas that needed repair, but despite our advice to you, you proceeded to exchange of contracts on 10th April at the agreed sale price, without negotiating on any of the items we mentioned to you.
You have subsequently discussed the matter with two of the directors of this firm and have requested that we pay you £500.00 for the repair of the roof and stating that if you did not get a satisfactory conclusion to your complaint that you would "leave negative feedback on Google and Trustpilot."
In our 30 minute conversation, I stated clearly that I could not compensate you, when my surveyors advice was so clear.
I also tried to reassure you, that despite your complaint to us, we still valued you as our client and would continue to help and support you in your property purchase, even if you followed through with your threat of a poor review.
It is with sadness that I post this reply to you.
Kind Regards
Andrew Kempston-Parkes
Managing Partner
Prompt and friendly service
Nick was very friendly and made the process very simple and I received the report within a day.

Delighted with the professional service carried out on a L2 survey and drone. We appreciated Nick’s phone call almost immediately after he completed the work. He outlined the main points and it was great to speak to him about any concerns there and then. We received the survey on the day specified and Nick welcomed any further queries we might have had. We recommend this company unreservedly.

I would highly recommend Andrew…
I would highly recommend Andrew Kempston-Parkes who came highly recommended to me by a friend. I contacted Andrew who completed a survey on my house in Cromer Street York and I found Andrew to be very helpful, extremely knowledgeable, professional and most importantly kind. Getting a house survey can be a daunting experience and Andrew explained everything clearly to me (in layman’s terms). I have since called Andrew about any further house questions I have had and cannot recommend his services enough. Many thanks Lisa Fisher

An outstanding experience!
Kempston-Parkes is an outstanding firm. I have used them several times and have always has a very positive experience. The whole team are extremely well-informed. We most recently used K-P when purchasing a home and every person we dealt with was genuinely invested in our specific needs. From the surveyor (Chris Wilson) to the team in the office, each member of the team took the time to explain the process, answer our queries and generally provide us with incredibly valuable advice.
I would not hesitate to recommend Kempston-Parkes!
