ZFN Chartered Surveyors

Needed a building survey for a new build high rise apartment ASAP and ZFN delivered! Zaid was extremely thorough with the process and patiently answered all my questions. Everything was done very efficiently and communication was always clear and quick. Highly recommend them!

Everything was done professionally, thoroughly, and on time as promised. Received verbal feedback the day after the survey, followed later with the full written report with photos.Zaid explains everything well and has been easy to contact with a few follow-up questions. I really liked using WhatsApp as our communication platform. The cost breakdown is helpful especially being a first time buyer. I would definitely use this company again.

Zaid has accommodated to the tenant's schedule to visit our prospective flat. Report was prepared as ETA. thorough reporting n scope was similar to example (feel free to ask for one to decide on scope). He had been helpful to follow through n suggesting other vendors.

We did a defects only survey with ZFN. Zaid was very professional and did a very thorough job with lots of pictures and descriptions. He was also very helpful with providing recommendations and advice on the property even after the survey. Overall excellent service. Would recommend using them.

I'm a bit confused why there are so many good reviews for these surveyors. Perhaps I misunderstood their service but their survey seemed very below par to me. Yes it's easy to understand, as it's just pictures with a single sentence describing an issue. A lot of the survey was just pictures of cracks in tiling. Their survey was three times shorter than my previous survey and didn't evaluate in detail lots of key stuff I wanted clarity on.They are very quick to reply and communicative, but fundamentally aren't offering the service other surveyors do, but charging the same price. And the fact they instantly gave me a full refund when I raised this suggests they know this. To be fair to them I guess on their example survey you can see how detail light their surveys are - but you kind of expect quality from a RICS surveyor at that price. I went back another surveyor I've previously used and got the detail I needed.

I used Zaid's service, and I genuinely appreciate his professionalism and care towards his clients. He's a lovely guy, and initially, I had high hopes for his expertise. However, my experience took an unexpected turn. As a first-time buyer, I relied on Google reviews to find experts like him. When I instructed him for a survey of the house I was about to purchase, it turned out to be a non-traditional house, and the lender required additional information about its construction and materials.Regrettably, Zaid, the surveyor, couldn't provide the necessary answers. I felt like I was investing my hard-earned money in vain, money that could have gone towards my deposit or a different expert who would have been upfront about not dealing with non-traditional houses.Zaid initially offered to help if I found another house, giving me hope that I wouldn't lose my previous investment. However, when the time came, he asked for even more money than I had already paid, resulting in a disappointing experience.If you're a first-time buyer, my advice would be to consider finding experts through recommendations from friends. This approach might save you both time and money.PS: I eventually purchased another house without a survey, just to avoid any further frustrating situations.

Communication with Zaid was very easy and he was very responsive throughout and accommodating to our agent changing the dates. Survey was very thorough and exactly what we needed.Couldn't recommend highly enough!!

Zaid provided a comprehensive and efficient survey of our new home in Stoke Newington. It was easy to understand and he talked us through our queries very helpfully. We were happy with his reasonable price and the quality of work done and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Thank you!

I spoke to Zaid regarding a roof defect of a property I am planning to purchase. My concerns were specific in nature and he was incredibly helpful. He took the time to advise in great detail. In future I will absolutely instruct his services if needed. Thanks very much.

I was extremely satisfied with the survey ZFN produced. It was timely and in depth, giving me all the information I needed to make an informed decision about a property purchase. The follow up has also been excellent. I thoroughly recommend them to anyone wishing to understand a property before purchase.
