Excellent service in every way from the very thorough, detailed and helpful report from Martin, to post report. If you have any questions or clarifications you can talk to the surveyor, and I had a most helpful conversation with Martin. It really does feel a personal service. I would thoroughly recommend this company. Ruth

Amazing customer service

The Novello team made my experience a great one and were always easy to contact. From the outset, they were informative, helpful, and able to match similar quotes, which gave me confidence in choosing them.

After I made payment, there was a slight delay in contacting the estate agent, but once I raised this, the response was excellent and everything progressed quickly.

Claire, in particular, was outstanding throughout the process. She fully understood my situation and acted professionally and efficiently to help arrange my survey. Later, when my circumstances changed and I needed to cancel the survey, Claire was once again incredibly helpful. She assisted me in securing a refund without hesitation and showed genuine understanding of my position.

I am extremely grateful for Claire’s support, professionalism, and excellent customer service throughout my experience with Novello. Based on my experience, I would happily recommend them.

Excellent company! I used Novello towards the end of last year for a house survey! I spoke with Raymond and Rae and then the survey was carried out by Archie! All a pleasure to deal with and have recommended to friends since. Post survey Archie took time to have a Teams call to go through the report, very knowledgable and professional guy! Thank you Novello!
