Many thanks to Luke for his excellent service.
His report was thorough going above and beyond, enabling important issues to be raised with the seller and the necessary action needed.No hesitation in highly recommending Luke and Thornes.
I was delighted with every aspect of our dealings with Thornes. First of all, Georgi is really helpful and a pleasure to deal with, making great efforts to accommodate us with our timeframe. Luke is extremely thorough in every aspect of his work, producing a very detailed Level 2 survey for us. Not only that, he took the trouble to call me out-of-hours to discuss his findings before he wrote up the final report (giving us an early indication of any points we need to focus on). After the call, we received the final report well within the time we had agreed. Couldn’t be happier with our experience of Thornes – thanks very much, Georgi and Luke.
Luke was incredibly detailed and diligent in his surveying spending several hours at the property and even speaking with neighbours!
I was very happy with the Level 3 report itself and the post report support Luke offered.
I would recommend Thornes to others.
Great service from start to finish. Highly recommend. A++
