Party wall surveyors are getting quite a bad reputation with one home owner answering my survey charged £7k and another £5k in surveyor fees.
From the results so far it appears over 30% of surveyors are charging excessive fees.
Please share your experiences and discuss
If home owners are being exploited this needs to be highlighted.
For my dissertation I'm researching the effectiveness of the Party Wall Act and surveyor ethics.
I want to know about good and bad experiences with surveyors
I'm assessing time frame, costs and surveyor ethics
Less than 10 people have so far filled in the short questionnaire but seeing some real horror stories
I need a minimum of 50 people to respond not only for my dissertation but for the professional bodies to sit up and listen
The questionnaire will literally take 2-3 minutes and is totally anonymous.
