Recent Activity in Potters Bar

We were contacted by a client who owned a substantial detached house on Pine Grove in Brookmans Park, to the north of Potters Bar. The original building had been extended to the side and the rear incorporating the original house and an outbuilding.

The owner had noticed cracks opening up at ground and first floor level in different areas of the building. Our Senior Surveyor William Weaver contacted the owner to discuss the issues prior to visiting. He was then instructed to investigate and identify the cause of the cracking, form an opinion of how serious it was in nature and what remedial action should be taken.

William attended site with one of our assistant surveyors. He discussed the history of the building and its environs and then inspected the property including the areas of concern.

William identified the cause, confirmed that there wasn’t any immediate danger of collapse and proposed a course of action for the homeowner who was delighted with the outcome.

Recently used PB for a level 3 survey. We needed it turned around quickly which they delivered. Would use their services again
Very efficient service. Thank you!
My family and I required a defect survey on some cracks in multiple areas of our house. Shaun came to access these cracks. He was timely and professional, the report he gave us was informative, concise and easy to understand for a layman. We are happy with the service we received from Peter Barry charter surveyors and would recommend them.
Mi sono rivolto a Peter Barry per una valutazione della casa a Londra finalizzata al calcolo della Capital Gain Tax , sono stati solleciti, gentili ed efficienti . In meno di 15 gg ho avuto il documento di valutazione ufficiale
We are first time buyers, requested a RICS Level 3 Home Survey Report. We received the quote very fast, and the survey was also arranged promptly. Joanne was very helpful. She guided us very well about the report's content and the relevant services & fees.
Our surveyor was David. He was super helpful and responsive! He explained his findings on the day of the survey, so we were already aware of the biggest issues before the report arrived. The survey report was very thorough and reader-friendly, and it helped us renegotiate a better price!
Their fees are higher than other surveyors, but I am so glad we went with them. Wouldnt hesitate to work with them again!
