What Our Clients Say

Reviews from property buyers across Milton Keynes and the surrounding area

★★★★★

"I cannot recommend Milton Keynes Surveyors highly enough. David conducted our Level 3 building survey on a 1930s property in Milton Keynes. The report was exceptionally detailed with photos throughout. He identified subsidence issues that would have cost us thousands. We renegotiated the purchase price thanks to his expert advice. Truly professional service."

Andrew Foster

★★★★★

"Sarah was our surveyor for a HomeBuyer report in Bedford. As first-time buyers, we were nervous about the process, but Sarah explained everything clearly and answered all our questions. The report was detailed yet easy to understand. She even called us after to discuss her findings. Exceptional personal service!"

Lucy and Tom Harrison

★★★★★

"James provided excellent party wall surveyor services when our neighbours were extending in Northampton. He prepared detailed schedules of condition and ensured our property was protected throughout the works. Professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer questions. Would definitely use again."
