Amazing experience with this company.
We booked a level 3 Survey after Lee came to survey my mother in laws property for the buyers that were buying hers.
Lee was very professional, thorough and the report is very detailed.
Can’t recommend this company enough, amazing from start to finish.

Very disappointed
I thought the surveyor had done a thorough job. Followed up on the notes he made with a roofer and an electrician and they poo pop’s the comments he made, to the point the electrician said he’s just cut and paste generic notes! £600 wasted!!
29 May 2026
Reply from Camsure Home Surveys
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to read you feel disappointed with the report and we would welcome the opportunity to discuss this with you directly.
With regard to the roof, the surveyor identified lifted tiles and some localised deterioration at the time of inspection. Based on these visible findings, the report appropriately advised obtaining further contractor input and quotations prior to purchase, which is standard for a Level 3 survey. This element was given a Condition Rating 2, indicating defects that require repair or maintenance but are not considered serious or urgent.
In terms of the electrics, a Condition Rating 3 was applied as a precautionary measure. This does not confirm a defect, but highlights further investigation is recommended before committing to a purchase. Electrical installations cannot be fully assessed during a visual inspection, and recommendations for testing are made to verify safety, certification and compliance, particularly where parts of the system are concealed. It is also worth noting that industry guidance, including that from the Electrical Safety Council, recommends electrical installations are checked on a change of occupancy regardless of age. The advice given in the report is therefore consistent with recognised best practice.
RICS Home Surveys are non-invasive inspections and are designed to highlight risk and areas requiring due diligence. It is therefore normal and appropriate to recommend specialist checks, even where installations may appear relatively modern.
We do not produce generic reports and all findings are based on observations at the property together with professional judgement in line with RICS guidance.
The surveyor would be happy to talk though the report with you. Please feel free to contact us directly so we can assist further.

As first time buyers
As first time buyers, the survey process was something we were apprehensive about. We purchased a level 2 survey with a valuation. We were assigned Lee Whitehead for our purchase in the Otley area and he has been nothing short of fantastic. He called the day prior to the survey to check if there was anything additional we were concerned about or wanted checking in the survey (we had the opportunity at booking to also state). He then called us the day after and talked us through the report. This involved explaining why certain elements were flagged as a 3. This for me was an incredible help as it helped me understand prior to seeing the document and prevented panic and overwhelm trying to decifer what was actually needed. Once the report was shared, Lee was open to any questions and was supportive when our solicitors redirected questions back, pointing us in the right direction. Thank you again for all your support, it has made the process a lot easier and provided us with much more confidence in our first house purchase!

Professional on time
Professional on time , helpful. Reports of this type are always full of generalities, disclaimers and sections that do not always apply. A valuation that equals the selling price is always suspect especially when your survey fee is based on the valuation.
Not value for money.

Reply from Camsure Home Surveys
Good morning,
Thank you for your feedback and for taking the time to share your experience.
We are pleased to read you found our service professional, punctual and helpful.
We do understand your comments regarding the style of reporting as RICS Level 3 Home Surveys are designed to follow a prescribed industry format, which does include standard wording, assumptions and limitations. These are not included to avoid responsibility, but to ensure clarity on what can and cannot be assessed during a non-intrusive inspection, and to protect clients from unknown risks.
In terms of the valuation, this is an independent assessment carried out in accordance with RICS Global Standards. It is based on detailed local comparable evidence and reflects the market conditions and condition of the property at the time of inspection. It is not uncommon for a well priced property in stable market conditions to align closely with the agreed purchase price. Importantly, our fee is fixed and not linked to the valuation figure in any way.
Your report also identified a range of specific, actionable points, including urgent maintenance to rainwater goods, recommendations for electrical testing, and a number of further investigations and legal checks. These are intended to support you in making an informed decision.
We are sorry to learn you feel the report did not represent value for money. However, our aim is always to provide a thorough, evidence based assessment that highlights both risks and reassurance, rather than simply confirming a purchase.
If you would like to discuss any aspect of the report or valuation with the surveyor further, we would be very happy to arrange this.
Thank you for choosing Camsure Home Surveys.
