Complaining about a surveyor
Comments

Sorry Mr S. but I cant make anything out from your photos. Generally if there were no lintels installed above windows then the outer leaf of brickwork above would deflect (ie sag) severely with the load then bearing on to the PVC frames and causing them to distort. Based on your photos none of this seems to be occurring?0

Hi, thanks for taking the time to reply. To be totally clear though, this isn’t a question of whether the lintels are there or not. Im am 100% sure there are no lintels. This has been confirmed by my own eyes, 3x window fitters, 3x builders and my next door neighbour (who had the same issue when his windows were last replaced). The question was about whether there is any mileage on taking this up with the surveyor.Marshaltown said:Sorry Mr S. but I cant make anything out from your photos.

A lady I did a job for got 10 grand from her surveyors insurance for missing loads of stuff on her property. She was asking for 40.
Part of the deal was not to reveal the name of the company.
