Testimonials

I have recently used the services of Silverstone Residential Surveys to undertake a house survey in Durham.

Silverstone completed the survey promptly providing a comprehensive assessment of the property in question. They identified some significant issues that would need to be addressed prior to a purchase.

In addition they were very proactive in explaining the key issues helping us to make a highly informed decision on whether to proceed.

I found their local property knowledge and expertise invaluable.

John Tyson

I would have no hesitation recommending Silverstone. Their professional standards have been exemplary and provided peace of mind, and all conducted in a very friendly, human way.

Jonathan Edwards, CBE

Thank you very much to you and your team. The service provided is very good. I was happy after getting feedback provided over the phone. I was worried about buying the house and my questions were all answered.

Ms H Kaur

Richard Farrey at Silverstone was a joy to deal with. He provided clear and concise recommendations and was easy to communicate with. We would highly recommend Silverstone.

Ian Thornhill

We had a Level 3 survey carried out on an Edwardian property in Whitley Bay. The report was detailed, comprehensive and clear, with supporting photographs throughout (79 pages long). It included a summary of work to be done and documentation to request, along with urgency and estimated costs. After-sales service was great; Ross took the time to assist me with further queries

Joe Hopkins

This is the second time we have used Silverstone Residential Surveys and each time we have been exceedingly impressed with not only the service from Joanne and the team, but also the quality of the survey report from Ross Haggie our surveyor on both occasions. Ross is a true professional who knows what to look for, what is an important concern and what is ultimately a cosmetic issue that should be noted. The quality of the recommendations regarding water management, airflow management and building envelope advice was second to none. If you are looking to purchase a house in the Newcastle upon Tyne area, Ross and Joanne at Silverstone are the ones to trust.

Moss Family

We've recently completed on our first home, and chose Silverstone as our surveyors. As soon as I got in touch, the team were very quick to send a detailed quote, along with their T&C's and potential survey dates. Once confirmed, they handled the booking with the Estate Agent, and kept to the agreed timeline precisely.

Before commissioning our survey, we had read a few examples from other providers, and one real survey for another property that someone else had commissioned, and all of them had seemed a bit generic, so we were a bit worried that ours was going to be the same.

However, this should not have been a concern at all, as our survey came back fully tailored to our house, confirming some of the things that we suspected already, and offering lots of new useful information we didn't know. With this info, we were able to instruct builders to provide quotes for some extra work required before we could move in. We didn't need to get in touch with Ross, the surveyor again, but he did offer to answer any follow up questions we had regarding the survey. From the contents of the report, we could tell he was very knowledgeable and thorough in his revision of the house.

We are very grateful to Joanne and Ross for handling our survey so quickly and well, and would highly recommend Silverstone Residential Surveys to anyone looking for a survey in the North East.

Gretel Ferat

A very professional service covering all aspects of risk consideration during a property purchase. Prompt with reporting with a high level of detail and easy to follow summaries of each element under review. Very responsive to questions to support clarity. I would very much recommend.

Steven Rohan

A very comprehensive level 3 report which was received within a couple of weeks of instructing Silverstone. Tremendous level of detail and a vast amount of pictures, both of which have helped immensely.

Paul Leighton

I have been delighted with my experience working with Silverstone Residential Surveys as my building surveyor.

With a previous property I made the mistake of going with a different surveyor that the estate agent had recommended - their report was underwhelming. This time, I hired Silverstone Residential Surveys, who had already done an excellent job for some family members.

Ross at Silverstone provided a meticulous Full Building Survey, complete with extensive explanations and a multitude of photographs, within an impressive five-day turnaround for such a lengthy report. His professionalism and efficiency exceeded my expectations, and the other staff at Silverstone were also great.

I wholeheartedly recommend Ross and Silverstone Residential Surveys to anyone in need of a building surveyor. His expertise, attention to detail, and impressive turnaround time make him a true standout in the field. Thank you, Ross and Silverstone, for your exceptional service; I couldn't be more satisfied with the results!

Jeremy Coulon

I had a full building survey carried out by Silverstone as a first time buyer. My initial contact was with Richard, he called me the day after sending a quote request.

All contact was polite and helpful. The survey itself was carried out in a quick timeframe. It was to a very high quality, with 99 pages of useful information, with images etc. It was also well presented.

Lastly the price was very good. "Cheapest" is not the way to go on a survey, but the price was definitely a bonus.

I would use Silverstone again if I'm in need of a survey.
