I have used Kani for 2 different Surveys and couldn’t recommend him enough. He took his time to explain the reports to me to ensure I understood everything. He was easily contactable when needed and would reply to emails quickly. Lovely, kind and professional manor so would highly recommend!! Thank you.

As an estate agents for a leading agent in the area we recommend Kani from southern surveyors. We always get great feedback from buyers when they have used him and they in turn have recommended him to friends. We also find sellers who’s houses are being surveyed have ended up using him as they see how thorough he is.

Kani handled the property surveys for me in the past and was truly exceptional. His professionalism, meticulous attention to detail, and commitment to accuracy were outstanding. He ensured clear and consistent communication throughout the process, making everything easy to understand and stress-free. His expertise and efficiency gave me complete confidence in his work, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the results. I highly recommend Kani to anyone seeking a skilled and reliable surveyor. Thank you for providing such excellent service!

We have had two surveys performed by Kani very recently as the first property fell through based on issues with the roof which Kani identified but for which the vendor would not put right or reflect this in a lowered asking price. After pulling out of this one we found another property and had no hesitation in going back to Kani who carried out this and the previous survey with the utmost of professionalism and providing a very comprehensive report. Fingers crossed we will complete on this second property and move in October!! I would certainly recommend Kani's services to anyone wanting a thorough survey to give them reassurance about their potential purchase!!

Choosing a surveyor is very difficult when moving into a new area. However, we were most fortunate to have a recommendation to Kani Premathilaka at Southern surveyors. Not only did Kani produce the most comprehensive report ; he purposely went to great lengths to show photographs and discuss various items with us personally. Further, and to our great surprise , he most happily continued to make himself willingly available , with advice and recommendation , even after we had purchased our house. We found his friendly and professional manner most reassuring . He certainly helped us to avoid a number of possible difficulties. You can always be confident that Kani will be someone you can turn to and be genuinely interested in your own situation. Most highly recommended !

Kani has been incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. He has made the survey process effortless and is very friendly and professional to deal with. I would not go anywhere else and regularly recommend Kani to friends and family.

Southern Surveyors were mentioned to me by a stranger in a pub after the topic of house buying came up, and after reading reviews online I was really impressed and so instructed Kani to carry out my level 2 survey. Kani was very pleasant to deal with, and made sure that everything was clear and understood before agreeing to complete the work. There were some initial delays to my buying process so I had to put the survey on hold for a couple of weeks, but Kani was very understanding and then moved forward as soon as I gave the go ahead to continue. The survey was very thorough and easy to understand, and I was also able to have a phone conversation afterwards to discuss the results. Since having my survey I have realised several friends have also used Southern Surveyors! I will definitely recommend to anyone buying in the local area, especially a FTB such as myself.
