We had a fantastic experience using Greg for our structural survey on a property we were looking to purchase. His report was incredibly thorough and detailed, giving us total peace of mind. He was very professional, always quick to respond to our questions, and really went above and beyond to look out for us as his clients even after the report was done. If you want a surveyor who is honest, reliable, and brilliant at what he does, definitely use Greg!
There really aren’t enough words to describe how helpful Greg has been and how valuable his expertise is. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is clearly an expert in his field and an all-round great person. His structural calculations were excellent for our knock through. He is friendly, professional, efficient and approachable and he has repeatedly gone above and beyond to help us when unexpected issues have cropped up in our renovation. He has answered all our questions comprehensively and shared such valuable advice. His expertise has given me peace of mind and I would recommend him to everyone who needs any structural engineering expertise! Thanks again Greg!
Greg responded very promptly to all communications. Excellent communication. Punctual with site visit and his knowledge and willingness to help is second to none. Survey completed and drawings with me soon after. Will have no issues recommending Greg to anyone.
We would highly recommend Greg from GB Create!<br>We needed a structural calculation/design for removing part of a load-bearing wall, and after some googling went with Greg’s company.<br>Communication was prompt and professional from initial to last (so far) contact, the report is clear and very detailed. Also, we wanted more than just the calculations and a report – we wanted to understand how to alter the house gradually and respectfully to suit our needs. At his visit, Greg would listen to our questions and pitch the answers with clarity and without excessive jargon – he clearly loves what he does, and has a gift of explaining to somewhat clueless audiences without making them feel daft! That bit was almost as much appreciated as the report.<br>Thank you Greg, you have been so helpful!
We contacted Greg to get advice on the structural integrity of our roof timbers, and to draw up weight calculations for a roof that had previously had slate tiles replaced with concrete tiles, both to satisfy lender requirements on our house, that we planned to sell. Greg was helpful from the outset, offering advice. He then sent a fair quote for a full report. He attended our house, and carefully inspected the items we'd agreed upon. The report was thorough, and explained everything in detail. He then organised contractors to come in to strengthen a selection timbers, to ensure structural integrity in the roof. The contractors were friendly, professional, always on time, and completed the work to great standard. He turned around the work very quickly for us, which allowed us to list our house on the market promptly. I had to call and email Greg a few times to discuss things, and he was always happy to help, and continued to offer advice. The completed work was signed off by Greg, and he provided a completion report. He also advised on how to apply for building regs from the council during the process. All work was signed off by the council and we received their certificates after they'd inspected the work and calculations. Really can't recommend Greg (and the contractors he used) enough. A really positive experience. Thank you!
I used Greg because the price for an inspection to see if my wall was load bearing was very good, with the main chunk of the cost only coming if it was load bearing for the reports and stuff, whereas most competitors were charging pretty much fully price regardless. It did turn out to be he load bearing, but even still the price turned out a bit cheaper than any decent rated company out there.<br><br>In terms of the actual work, Greg was a nice fella, explained things well once he had took measurements and stuff, and emailed me the report ober in reasonable time, so I've now got calculations and stuff that I can give to a builder for a steel beam.
We can’t recommend Greg highly enough. We contacted him after our homebuyer’s survey flagged some potential structural issues with the house we’re buying, and he was incredibly quick to respond. Greg read through the existing report and came back to us with clear, helpful advice in under 24 hours, along with a very reasonable quote.<br>Once instructed, his communication was excellent throughout. He kept us fully informed about the progress of both the survey and the report, which we really appreciated. The final report was delivered a full week earlier than expected and was extremely thorough. It included clear photographs and diagrams, making it easy for us to properly understand his findings.<br>Greg was also more than happy to answer follow-up questions and took the time to help us understand the likely costings for the work he had identified. Overall, it was a really positive experience and gave us much more confidence and peace of mind about the condition and structural integrity of the house we’re buying.
We had Greg out from GB Create and it was a pleasure to speak to him.<br>Really great guy.<br>He advised us on whether a wall was load bearing or not and also gave it in writing. He also said if we had any concerns going for forward he would pop back out.<br>We would highly recommend Gregor for your needs.<br><br>Thank you Greg.
