We are independent surveyors who specialise solely in residential surveys. We cover North West England, including Merseyside, the Wirral, Lancashire, Cheshire, Greater Manchester and South Yorkshire. We will ensure you know all you need to know before committing to the purchase of a property.
Very efficient service, easily arranged. Comprehensive report presented in good time.
The survey was produced in a timely manner and was useful in identifying some issues which we have raised with the vendor. The survey included 119 numbered photographs but did not reference any of them . Photograph 49 shows feed trays presumably to address an infestation of some kind ,an opinion from the Surveyor on the ‘state of play’ would have been useful.
The survey was carried out very quickly. I am not sure whether I did receive value for money as it appears many of the inspections are now dependant on specialist. However, the office were very polite and efficient.
Sandra Manley did a Level 3 survey for me on a 100-year-old Grade II listed house. Her survey report was clear and comprehensive, and her advice was at all times prompt, practical and understandable. She was also very personable to deal with, and always available to help with matters arising after the survey. Highly recommended.
We bought a property which was built in the 1960's therefore instructed Walker Dunn Surveyors to carry out a full survey on the property to understand the extent of repairs, which needed to be carried out. When the survey was being carried out, my then (new) neighbour highlighted to the surveyor that the previous owners (then current) had had issues with a leak in the roof, and that they had been told on numerous occasions that the roof needed to be fully replaced. My neighbour offered the surveyor to take a better look from their bathroom window (looking out onto the side of their house, onto the property) for which the surveyor dismissed the opportunity and said that he/she can gain a good observation of the roof, from a ground level. After receiving the report back, it was obvious that the report was written to merely 'cover their arses'. There was no mention of the roof's overall state, as given by my neighbour and no mention of roof tiles missing. After moving into the property, we have had numerous quotes from roofers, confirming my neighbours statement and have been told that we need a new roof and even provided photos of a large section of roof, which has no tiles on at all. This has come as a shock given the findings we trusted in the surveyors report and we have only become aware of this after getting to know the neighbour next door and having quotes from various roofers. I would not use these surveyors again and would not recommend. If you do use them, make sure you take their findings with a pinch of salt and investigate yourselves (which funnily enough, you would think the surveyor you have paid, would do this for you!!!)
Absolutely fantastic service From Sandra Manley who made the whole process from Booking the survey, explaining various options to us, to then receiving a very thorough survey report. Wouldnt hesitate to recommend. Thankyou for making a very stressful time that little bit easier. Xx
Found the company helpful in arranging my Help to Buy Valuation and then extending it when my sale was delayed. Quick to respond and customer services very good. Would highly recommend.

Report professionally written Identified issues for the seller to fix
I am very pleased to say the process of instructing a survey via your company was extremely smooth running. I wanted to say a huge thank-you to Yvonne and Paul Howard Assoc RICS for your support with the survey on my property. I have been through the surveying process many times over the years and this was comfortably the best service I ever received. You have been friendly, responsive and efficient throughout.
Professional service, easy to understand and well written report
Made contact through a mutual friend's recommendation. Quote quickly given and survey done within 2 weeks as seller was on holiday. Survey easy to understand and passed on to the relevant parties.
Quick & easy service. Report was received within 24 hours. Very happy with service provided
They failed to inform me on plug sockets that weren't attached to the walls
I was purchasing a house for my son in Manchester, an area that I am totally unfamiliar with. I was pleased to receive a recommendation for Walker Dunn Surveyors from the estate agents. I still checked them out (!)...however, any doubts were cast aside by their prompt and attentive service, their extremely thorough survey and reassuring findings...I would not hesitate to recommend them in the future.
A very clear and honest survey. Booking the appointment was easy and the lady i contacted was very friendly. Price was better than other companies i also got quotes from. Highly recommend.
Walker Dunn was recommended to us by a friend. The whole process was quick and easy from start to finish. Communication was good and we received our report quickly even though it was bank holiday weekend. Happy with the price we paid too. All in all, very satisfied.
The process of organising the survey was straightforward. The price seemed reasonable. The content of the level 2 survey was to the level of detail to be expected. All in all, an efficient and good value service. We would use them again and would recommend them.
Would use again and recommend - really helpful and good value for money, plus knew follow-up support was there if needed further information.
