John Murphy Surveyors Ltd

John Murphy Chartered Surveyors has been established for 33 years and specialises in providing professional residential and commercial surveys and valuations, party wall matters, planning and building regulations advice, schedules of condition and boundary disputes. 

We are an independent company operating in Central and Greater London, Southend on Sea and around the Home Counties.

For your house purchase we can offer:

  • Valuations
  • Homebuyer Reports
  • Building Surveys

The Homebuyer Report and Building Survey will make you aware of any defects that may otherwise go unnoticed if you do not commission a survey.

The Homebuyer Report is most suitable for conventionally built properties built after 1900.

The Building Survey is appropriate for all properties that should not be covered by the Homebuyer Report, including properties that are old, listed, unusually constructed or intended to be renovated.

It is important to get a house survey to ensure that such defects are repaired as soon as possible to save potential considerable expenditure should they remain unrepaired over a long period of time.

The surveys may also allow for a reduction in the purchase price should repair work be costly.

Surveys are carried out within 3 days of the instruction and the reports are sent simultaneously by email and post 2 days after completion of the survey. We are a fast, reliable company providing efficient and flexible property surveys in London.

The reports you will receive from us will be user friendly and easy to understand, providing you with the sufficient information to decide on your next steps in your property transaction. When you choose John Murphy Chartered Surveyors for your house survey there will be no hidden, costly surprises when you move into your new property.

We are a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and all surveys and reports will be carried out by fully-qualified Chartered Surveyors. 

You can have peace of mind with John Murphy Chartered Surveyors.

I was initially disappointed that my clear (and agreed) instructions re carrying out the survey were not carried out and I returned from holiday to find the survey had not taken place. However, the surveyor responded very quickly once I shared my concerns and the survey was then carried out promptly - I had the report within days of returning to the UK. Learning point for surveyor: be more proactive. If someone doesn't return your call (within max 24 hours) call them again - and again - till you speak to them. The report was well-written and the content was helpful. The valuation, my primary motive for a survey, shocked me at first but then made sense, and enabled me to negotiate a small reduction in the agreed price. Overall: very good value for money and I was very glad I decided to invest in it (I didn't need to as I was not applying for a mortgage). I would strongly recommend this surveyor to future potential customers.

I found John to be very customer focused and responsive to our request at short notice. Even with the Easter Holidays he was still able to turn around our report in 3 days. It is very reassuring to find someone that sticks to the timescales they advertise and still provide a quality and value for money service.

We were very pleased with the communication we received from John Murphy. The survey was carried out very quickly and we received the report via email and a hard copy on the date that had been promised. We chose the Hombuyers Report Survey which was very good value for money and quite comprehensive.

This is a great service - three of the companies contacted us within a few hours and we selected John Murphy primarily on the basis of his location near to the property we are buying. From initial contact to having the survey report in our hands was 5 working days so its been very efficient.
