Gardner Surveyors Reviews 

I had a very pleasant experience with Gardner Surveyors who carried out a level 3 survey for me.

Extremely responsive, and were more than accommodating of all my (maybe even unreasonable!) requests and questions before the survey date.

After the survey, I received a phone call from the surveyor immediately following the appointment to go over some of the findings. I received a detailed report shortly after.

A very pleasant, fast and smooth experience end-to-end.

Our enquiry was picked up within 24 hours. Efficient service from Lesley to get survey scheduled. Report received within a matter of days. Andrew’s report was detailed but easy to read and understand.

Quite happy with the service I have received.
I would not hesitate to recommend Andrew and Lesley given their approachability and professional attitude.

Great from start to finish - arranged quickly, thorough report with useful tips for the layman and lots of pictures, and Andrew has been great with follow-ups after as I’ve used his local connections to find good trades. Would recommend.

Excellent service. Very efficient Paul really helped to make the survey easy to understand

I couldn't recommend Gardners highly enough. They were recommended to us by an friend & were very impressed with the service. Both Lesley & Andrew were excellent.
Andrew phoned me on the day to discuss the issues found & we received a full, easy to follow report in the subsequent days.

Andrew was great, very professional and friendly. Easy to get booked in with Lesley. Andrew called after he had done the survey to give us the main issues and brief description of his findings before he write the report so we were aware of what to expect and also made us feel confident we had purchased a good solid house. Report was over in a few days and easy to read with the colour coding traffic light system. Report was lengthy and every area covered with supporting pictures making it easy for us to highlight any issues to the vendor
Highly recommend. Thank you for your 5* service

The whole experience was simple, personable and highly professional.

The report was detailed and clearly well informed, and has helped put our mind at ease in the process of buying our first home.

It was also great to be able to speak to Andrew over the phone to discuss some of the points raised in the survey, and get his recommendations.

Would highly recommend.

Honestly couldn’t have done more for us!

Recently used Gardner Surveyors for a new family home we’ve bought. From the very first phone call with Lesley to the follow up phone call to explain the survey I knew we were in safe hands.
Lesley was amazing and even booked us in for the same week after finding out I am heavily pregnant and hoping to move before baby is here. She then handled everything taking one thing off our plate.
Two days later we got a call to say the survey had been completed and to expect the written report soon. Well by soon I didn’t expect the next day! Amazing

Survey to an amazing standard and done properly! Be careful of surveyors using AI to do all the hard work and giving dodgy results.

Will be recommending to everyone that will listen to me.

Thank you!

I would definitely recommend Gardners as your surveyor. Andrew was brilliant. After carrying out the task at hand he called me to provide a summary of his findings. We received a full, easy to follow report a few days later. Thanks too Lesley for your kind help and support.

We have recently had our survery carried out by Andrew and were very impressed with the service provided. The turn around was quick and thorough, and Andrew phoned me on the day of the survery to give a brief summary of his findings.

I would highly recommend Gardner Surveyors to anyone looking for a reliable survey.

I was recommended to Gardner Surveyors (Andrew) and booked a level 3 survey on an 1910 house. From the first quotation off Lesley, to the completion of the very in-depth survey, the whole experience has been seamless.
Communication has been clear and Andrew’s personal explanation was very much appreciated.
Rarely in this time of tech and complexity do you find a straight forward quality company and that’s why I’ll recommend to others and will use Andrew in the future for surveys and property advice.
Many thanks.

I used Andrew for the first time last year and am delighted to recommend him for surveys. He gave a quick turnaround on a property I have purchased and has remained on hand for general advise about the age and condition of the building since we moved in.

I organised this survey and valuation for my mother and opted for a full survey even though it wasn’t required for a mortgage, and in hindsight I’m extremely relieved that we did. I was very impressed with the service we received from the initial conversation with Lesley in the office through to the detailed feedback from Andrew. The survey was very thorough and clearly carried out with a great deal of care and attention to detail. Andrew clearly spent a good deal of time at the property and the report reflected that level of diligence, identifying both visible issues and potential risks that might otherwise have been overlooked.
What stood out most was the balanced and practical nature of the advice. The report didn’t just list defects — it explained their significance, suggested sensible next steps, and included realistic cost guidance. This has been invaluable in helping my mother make an informed decision and negotiate appropriately with the seller.
It’s clear that Andrew has extensive experience in property and refurbishment, as many of the comments demonstrated a strong understanding of where shortcuts may have been taken. The inclusion of recommendations for further investigations and certification was also very helpful as was the separate valuation report.
Overall, a highly professional, detailed and pragmatic survey. I would not hesitate to recommend this service to anyone purchasing a property and wanting a thorough, honest assessment.

We are extremely happy to recommend Gardner and Co having used the company for three surveys in recent months. Between November 2025 and January 2026 Lesley is super efficient organising the booking and payment process , also responding really quickly if you need clarification of any aspect of the survey. Andrew gives feedback on the day the survey is carried out. Giving down to earth comment and explanations of his advice, in light of his findings.
We couldn't ask for a better experience. You can ask a question and get a full and detailed answer, to aid decision making, at what can be a stressful time. Appointments are arranged very quickly, again to get the property buying process moving.
The fees are very reasonable for an exemplary professional service.
Thank you for your help

First class communication and impressive turnaround time. Good value too. Thanks to all concerned.

I would highly recommend Gardner & Co for a home survey. Graham completed a very thorough and realistic survey and called on the day of the surveyor to go through the key points and allow for any questions. It was a brilliant service for someone who has little to no building knowledge as he would explain things very clearly.

We have recently completed our survey with Gardner Surveyors and they couldn’t have been better. They were brilliant! Andrew came out to our property and completed our building survey. He called us soon after to let us know that everything looked okay which meant we were reassured without having to wait for the full report. When the full report was sent it was in depth and well explained. Andrew answered all our questions and always responds promptly. We couldn’t recommend Gardner Surveyors more and have been spreading the word to all our family and friends. Thank you so much!!

Myself and my partner are first time buyers and Gardener Surveyors couldn’t be more helpful. From start to finish the experience was super useful. The report itself was thorough and detailed as well as easy to read and navigate. Andrew is incredibly responsive and talked us through the report via phone call highlighting concerns and also sharing his valuable and professional advice.
As first time buyers this was all very new for us and we were unsure what certain things meant/ if we needed further action. Again Andrew took time to explain this further and provide recommendations. We are beyond happy with our survey and overall experience, highly recommend!

I am very pleased with Andrew’s survey.

We requested an in depth, Level 3 survey as we are due to buy our first home.

The survey was done promptly and the report was back with in the same week.

Andrew covered everything we had minor concerns about, and much more.

The report was well detailed with a good explanation to make us understand anything.

Additionally, Andrew let me follow up with a phone call to discuss a couple more things further which really helped us address any concerns.

I am pleased Andrew was our surveyor and would 100% use Andrew at Gardner Surveyors again.

It also helped that he was genuine, honest and pleasant to speak too.
