Report
Excellent service from everyone at Castles. The surveyor was very professional and always there, or received a call back when I had silly questions/requests. Receptionist was friendly and explained everything I needed to know. It wasnt the cheapest place I found but Im glad I went with them no regrets.

Castles did a very thorough job, produced a clear and detailed report and all great value for money. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking for a surveyor.
