"Competitively priced service, the agent I dealt with was very helpful. On the day of the survey itself I received a call from the surveyor to run through his initial findings. The quality of the report produced was excellent, very detailed and thorough. If needed I will be using SAM Conveyancing's services again in the future for sure."

Types of property in Old Woking?
There are a number of Georgian and Victorian properties and the vast majority of housing in the area is semi-detached, much from the 1920s to the 1950s, including some interwar council housing in the Elm Bridge Estate.
Shared ownership resales can be found sometimes, such as in Baynton Road, where some of the 1950s terrace houses there have been sold in this fashion.

Frequently Asked Questions: Homebuyers Survey Old Woking
We take problems very seriously, and if you encounter an issue, we ensure your concerns are addressed promptly and professionally. The initial step involves submitting a formal, written complaint, outlining the problem and supplementing it with any supporting evidence, like photos.
Our Manchester-based surveyor will send you their Formal Complaints Procedure outlining the expected response timeframes. They will work to rectify your complaint and might even propose revisiting the property in Manchester. After a comprehensive review, they will write back to you, hopefully resolving your complaint through the provision of further information.
If you remain unsatisfied, you can resort to a third-party dispute resolution service to which the surveyor is registered. This service becomes accessible only after you have formally complained to your surveyor.
