Andrew Perrin supported me in the process of extending the lease for my flat. He is very knowledgeable and worked quickly and effectively in this matter, negotiating a reduction in price from the freeholder. Thank you, Andrew.

Andrew Perrin is a JOY! And you cannot say that about your average surveyor. BUT Andrew is NOT average. He is that rare professional, whose enthusiasm for his work is only exceeded by his enthusiasm to help me/you/his clients, navigate through the property maze. He uses straightforward language (no 'engaging with stakeholders' nonsense), gets the job done, without ANY fuss, and his services are incredibly reasonably priced. Frankly, the RCIS - the surveyors' tribe, should make HIM their 'go to' spokesman.
I say this with 20 plus years of radio hosting under my belt. He handled my lease extension so well, I have stopped worrying, and started breathing properly. Even the cat's chilled out! 'Thank YOU', Andrew.

I was impressed from the very first meeting with Lee Smith who was professional courteous and helpful as well as being very positive. His sales team, Jacquie and Denise were equslly good and through their persistence made an at times difficult situation much easier. Fraser Wood are longstanding and thoroughly deserve their reputation. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the Walsall area. Thank you for all you have done.
