Thank you for such a lovely review. We hope you all the best with your property purchase and thank you again for using Risk Averse Ltd. Kind regards Katie
Amazing service
I could not have asked for a better experience. Katie has been amazing from start to finish. There were a few issues with access to the property etc which made completing the survey a challenge at times but Katie has been so flexible and accommodating throughout the whole process. I am a first time buyer and Katie has been brilliant at explaining things in simple understandable terms. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic service and good job from Katie
I contacted Katie as I needed a full buildings survey completing at short notice. She was extremely polite and courteous and managed to get the job done within the week. The report was timely and thorough as I wanted. I am buying my first house and Katie helped make it possible.
I would highly recommend her services and wish her all the best in life.

Excellent service to date
As a developer, being informed when buying property is essential. I have only started to develop a relationship with risk averse recently, and so far Katie has been excellent, providing invaluable advice regarding potential purchases. I envisage that we will be working together for a long time to come.

Thank you Natalie for your kind words. We hope your move went well and that you have many years of happiness in your new home from all at Risk Averse Ltd.
Excellent service & detailed report
Katie conducted a Building Survey for our new home and the service was great. An appointment was made quickly and we received a red flags email within 24 hours. The full report followed a week later and was incredibly detailed, including photos. Our mortgage wasn't dependent on a survey but this was money well spent when investing in a new house. The information provided will help us prioritise our maintenance tasks in the months/years to come. No hesitations in recommending Katie and Risk Averse Surveyors Ltd.

My First Home
I had the pleasure of dealing with Katie, and from start to finish she was nothing but professional and answered any queries I had promptly. I was informed of any "red flags" within 24hrs of the survey and received the full report a few days later. The report genuinely surprised me, not at what was found with the property, but the sheer amount of detail throughout.
None of the language used with the report was too baffling which I appreciate as it didn't make it a chore to read. I will definitely used Risk Averse again in the future, and will recommend whenever possible.
Thanks again!

The director contacted us directly to discuss our requirements and tailored the quote. Katie was approachable, prompt with communication, replies throughout and the report provided was very detailed. We will be using Risk Adverse for our future projects and highly recommend Risk Averse LTD, Thank you. “
