Record Associates review

Ranked 6 of 10 in Quantity surveyors in Telford

Best for: building surveys and construction project management

Active

Trading as Record Associates 2012 Limited · Telford · Service area: Telford, Shrewsbury

Record Associates in short

Record Associates is a consultancy spanning building surveys, defects diagnosis, dilapidations, valuations and full project management. That project-management arm is its signature, meaning running building work rather than cost consultancy. RICS listings cover both its Telford and Shrewsbury offices. Two direct office phone numbers and an email address are published.

There is no review record to report: no Google reviews are on record for Record Associates, and no other platform appears in the evidence. That silence is a gap rather than a verdict, and the firm's long company record and dual RICS listings carry the assessment instead.

What counts against the firm is published detail: fees, VAT position and insurance details are all unpublished, leaving little to judge the commercial terms on.

Our verdict

Our judgement: Record Associates suits you if you want a consultancy spanning building surveys, defects work and project management, backed by a company record since 2012 and two RICS office listings [1] [3] [4]. Project management here means running building work rather than cost consultancy. Fees and insurance details are unpublished.
