    Prompt, efficient and a very good value service.

    Posted 3 days ago

    We needed a prompt survey on a property which we were interested in. Fran was very helpful and the survey was conducted the following week. Toby produced the report the same week which highlighted issues saving us further expense and worry.

    Prompt, Efficient, High Quality Service

    Posted 10 September

    The work provided by Active Services was prompt and of a high standard. The customer service team was great in responding to queries and has been very helpful in providing advice. I really appreciate their pro-activeness, which enable us to complete a job, which took others weeks to complete, within days without compromising on quality.

    Very good service

    Posted 27 August

    Toby completed a damp survey of a property I was buying. He did this quickly and efficiently, and provided clear and honest information as soon as it was done. He produced the report very quickly after the survey.
