Common questions about our pricing
Why do you have fixed prices?
We believe homeowners deserve to know the full cost upfront. No scope creep, no hourly billing, no surprises. The price we quote is the price you pay.
Is there a call-out charge?
No. The site visit is included in the fixed price for all our services.
What if my situation is more complicated than expected?
If we discover during the site visit that additional structural elements need reviewing, we'll explain exactly what's needed and get your approval before doing anything extra. You're never surprised by a bill.
Are your reports really accepted by mortgage lenders?
Yes. Our engineers are Chartered through the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), which is a recognised professional institution. Our reports are accepted by all major UK mortgage lenders including HSBC, Barclays, Halifax, Nationwide, and others.
