You can request a quote using the contact form on this page, by calling us on 07850 407671, or by emailing enquiries@anslow-building-surveyors.co.uk. To give you an accurate price, we will need the property address or postcode, the property type (house, flat, bungalow), the approximate age if known, the number of bedrooms and storeys, and whether you have any particular concerns about the property. A link to the Rightmove or estate agent listing is also very helpful. We typically respond within one working day with a clear, fixed-price quote and a recommendation on the most appropriate survey level for the property.

To provide an accurate quote, we need: the full property address or postcode, the property type (e.g. semi-detached house, ground-floor flat, bungalow), the approximate age of the property if known (e.g. 1930s, 1970s, new build), the number of bedrooms and storeys, and any specific concerns you already have, such as visible cracking, signs of damp, or known structural alterations. A link to the estate agent's listing on Rightmove, Zoopla, or similar is also very useful as it gives us context about the property's size, condition, and construction. You do not need to provide all of this — even just the postcode and property type is enough for us to give you a rough guide, and we can refine the quote as more information becomes available.

Yes — this is one of the most common questions we receive, and we are happy to guide you before you commit to anything. The right survey depends on the property's age, construction type, condition, whether it has been altered or extended, and your own plans for the property. Send us the property details (address, age, type, and any concerns) and we will recommend the most suitable survey level based on our experience. We will explain why a particular level is appropriate and what it will and will not cover, so you can make an informed choice. There is no charge for this advice and no obligation to book.

We aim to respond to all enquiries within one working day, and often much sooner. If you contact us during the working week (Monday to Friday), you can usually expect a reply the same day or by the following morning at the latest. Enquiries received over the weekend or on bank holidays will typically be answered on the next working day. If you are working to a tight deadline — for example, an approaching exchange date — please mention this in your message and we will prioritise your enquiry wherever possible. The quickest way to get a response is to use the contact form on this page or call 07850 407671 directly.

Yes — once you have instructed us, we can handle the access arrangements on your behalf if you prefer. We will contact the estate agent, seller, or tenant directly to agree a suitable date and time for the inspection, confirm any special access requirements (such as keys for outbuildings or loft hatches), and provide the necessary contact details. This takes the coordination off your plate and ensures the appointment is confirmed with everyone who needs to know. We will keep you informed once the appointment is arranged and will let you know as soon as the inspection is complete.
