I have engaged the services of Peter Barry multiple times this year to prepare detailed reports for the buildings under my management.

Shaun has consistently produced exceptionally comprehensive reports.

I have already recommended their services and will continue to do so.

As a managing agent, having a reliable surveyor available is invaluable.
I had a RICS level 2 survey carried out recently and had a good experience. They communicated effectively and got me the report within a couple days of the survey. It was detailed and highlighted a couple of issues I wasn’t aware of, so well worth doing.
Excellent firm for party wall surveys. After a bit of sleuthing I chose Peter Barry as they have a good reputation for avoiding the kind of conflicts that can escalate fees needlessly. That certainly proved true of my very level-headed and helpful surveyor James Merewether. Highly recommended.
Shaun Blake who was my surveyor was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. He took time to examine my property and produce a very detailed and informative report. I will definitely use 'Peter Barry ' in future and will have no problem recommending the company to others.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Elizabeth, for your kind words. We're delighted Shaun provided a professional, friendly, and thorough service. We look forward to assisting you again and appreciate your recommendation of Peter Barry Surveyors.

Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words and recommendation. We're delighted to hear you received excellent service from Joanne and Justin, and that the report met your expectations. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to assisting you again in the future.
