Customer Testimonials



At the beginning of my search for the right property, I knew far less than I do now. I found a flat in the perfect location within my budget and I couldn’t wait to move in. I knew that people got surveys done before exchanging contracts to make sure the property they were buying was in good condition, but I thought this was required for period properties only. Considering my dream flat had only been built 10 years ago, I wasn’t sure if I needed a survey - what could possibly be wrong with a modern building?

However, being a first-time buyer, I wanted to take extra care with every single step of the process, so I decided to get a home buyer report done, thinking it would only be a formality to put my mind at rest. I was wrong and in for a nasty surprise. The report uncovered major issues with the roof, damp problems and less than ideal maintenance management of the building. These issues were not obvious during the viewing and I wouldn’t be aware of them until it was too late without the report.

Thanks to House 4 House Limited and their thorough job I made a well informed decision to pull out of the transaction and I would never consider buying a property without a survey now. It saves a lot of money, hassle and stress in the long run.

I highly recommend the services of Mike Ashby as a Surveyor. He did a great job in identifying all the important issues in a studio I bought in Hove. Some of those issues became contentious during the purchase and Mike was supportive and informative and always followed up on his work. He was very honest, friendly, professional and straightforward to deal with. I would certainly use him again.

Miss S Burns - Buying Flat in The Avenues Hove




I can’t rate my experience with Michael Ashby highly enough. A house move is very stressful (especially as a first time buyer) and it can feel that not everybody is on your side. Michael was extremely helpful, professional and knowledgeable from the moment he took the initial enquiry. He responded quickly, and he really went above and beyond his requirements.

My homebuyer survey was booked within the deadline needed. As a first time buyer there was so much I didn’t fully understand, and no question was too silly or too small.

I would highly recommend Mike to any other homeowner looking for a honest reputable company. I felt confident the survey was completed with the greatest detail.
