Report
Literally the worst surveying firm i have ever come across - project for a RTM company of a block of flats in London severely delayed. The PM (second one during the project) isn't even RICS qualified. ABSOLUTE JOKE of an outfit

Report
Earl Kendrick have been the most unprofessional surveyors - They ignore phone calls, emails and letters of complaint while our construction project is on site going to pot which they are meant to be managing as contract administrator, and they do not issue weekly site reports as promised. They also grossly underpriced the cost of the job by 33%. Avoid at all costs!
