Reviews
Stephen and Jonathan simply exceeded our expectations. Navah Consulting offered a fairly competitive quote against many surveying practices in the local area. … Stephen not only answered our preliminary questions regarding the extent of the surveying work involved, but also honestly advised what was realistically required from a visit to gauge the true condition of the property. We were particularly interested in subsidence risk and in this respect, our inspection was very thorough and reassuring. We didn't have to wait long for the report, which was very detailed, including clear photographic records.

Jon carried out a survey at a property we’re purchasing and it was pleasure dealing with him throughout. He is extremely professional and was very helpful and knowledgeable when responding to any questions we had.
