 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cannot recommend Ed highly enough! Great communication from start to finish. Very professional & I felt confident in the knowledge & advice that Ed shared for the issue of cracking at my property. Ed’s Report was very comprehensive and I feel fully armed with the information I need to proceed to the next steps in rectifying the issue. Grateful to have found Ed to carry out the survey I needed.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I approached Ed to carry out a full structural survey on my property after losing a potential buyer who had received news from their survey, that my property had some possible serious issues.
I found Ed to be very professional,  approachable and reassuring .
He came up with an  excellent plan for a joint survey together with the adjoining neighbouring property and this was carried out in a calm, and very efficient manner.
Ed is very friendly and was happy to answer my questions
The resulting report was in depth and extremely well written.
The conclusions and recommendations for the two properties have given a clear and reassuring outlook for any future plans, remedial works, or possible sale negotiations.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed a survey doing at short-notice and Ed shuffled his diary to help me out. He took the trouble to provide the results verbally because of the urgency, and then followed up with a comprehensive report that covered all my concerns.
He was professional and courteous at all times. I would definitely use him again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ed Houlton responded promptly to our initial enquiry and all subsequent communication throughout the process of completing a structural survey on a property, that we were selling. He provided clear information on what could be expected, the pricing and timescales, which were adhered to. Ed was friendly and approachable throughout the process and fully answered the questions that we required clarity on. The final report was very comprehensive.
