What Our Clients Say

Phil

Level 2 survey

I engaged Destin 4 to perform a Level 2 survey on an apartment for which I had an offered accepted. The report they produced was comprehensive and as a result has enabled me to make informed and accurate decisions going forward. In addition, they were happy to spend time with me face to face to explain the contents and answer my questions. All in all, an excellent service. 

Ruth Pugh

Survey

We were recommended Destin 4 to perform a survey on a property we are purchasing.

We found the pre-survey information provided by Destin4 really helped us to understand the survey options. The timely, comprehensive report they produced was clear and detailed enabling us to determine actions and decisions going forward.

When we contacted them by phone for some further clarification, they kindly offered for us to visit their offices to discuss any decisions in detail and answered all our questions clearly which allayed our fears. (The tea was good too!)

This process can be complicated and worrying but at Destin 4 the whole team contributed to our discussions and gave personal insights and experience to assist with our decisions.

An excellent service offered by a knowledgeable, friendly team. I would not hesitate to recommend Destin 4.

Colin and Hilary Rampton

Survey

I am writing to thank you so much for such prompt and professional service.  Ian was a delight and managed to find a time to suit us perfectly and could not have been more helpful or accommodating - thank you.

Mr Ian Crown

RICS Homebuyer Report - Survey.

Very comprehensive service. It was great that you provided a face to face meeting to discuss the survey and took the time and patience to discuss any concerns. Would recommend Destn4 very highly.

Nicholas

Thank you for your excellent report which I have now read in full and forwarded to my solicitor.  It all made sense! (although I was surprised by the seven urgent ‘red 3’ ratings in a property that was “a reasonable proposition for purchase” – definitions, definitions ….).

I’ll see how my solicitor reacts and get back to you about a possible meeting to discuss the report idc.

Many thanks – I appreciate the quality of your work.

Mr Gary Porter

Miss Ellie Sastre

RICS Homebuyer Report - Survey.

We were recommended Destin4 by our estate agents for a Homebuyer's survey. Chris got back to us very quickly and the booking process was simple. The survey was carried out quickly and we received the report sooner than expected. The report was detailed but easy to understand. We then had the chance to speak with Chris to ask any questions. He was very helpful and honest about the work that would need doing to the property. I would definitely recommend Destin4 to anyone purchasing a property and would be happy to use their services again. Thank you!

Colin Gale

Survey

Thank you for your very thorough and informative report. We appreciate your views and good advice. Thank you for being very understanding with you follow up service and being very reassuring whilst explaining details over the telephone about certain parts of the report..

Miss Zoe Morgan

Survey

No hesitation for a 5* review. We dealt with Ian, Chris and Mark. All three of these gentlemen showed us great customer service. Chris was our surveyor on buying our house. Explained everything and even gave us the option to discuss anything once we have sight of report ( through teams or face to face meeting in the office) even messaged Chris whilst he was on holiday to arrange to see him in the office and this again was not an issue. Will be recommending you guys 100%. Thank you for your service - being first time buyers is daunting enough - but you three were outstanding and explained anything thorough when needed.

Mrs Danielle Tricker

I have been very happy with the experience regarding my Survey from the day I booked to have it done to completion. Very impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of your Company and also very grateful to Chris regarding a very comprehensive report and, especially for his recommendations regarding having an electrical test and a water test done. The electrical test has been carried out and a service on the hot water storage tank is currently being organised. Thank you all very much . Regards. Janet Rogers.

Mrs Lisa Bartlett

RICS Homebuyer Report - Survey.

We were able to secure a quick appointment due to our travel plans and Chris spent a considerable time patiently answering my questions at the end of the survey. The report came back quickly and was very thorough, citing reasons for not being able to access parts of the house as well as providing photos to hilight various issues. We would very much recommend Chris and the service provided
