The £5000 Repair and Renew Grant to make properties more flood resilient requires that a professional surveyor conduct a survey. I have been quoted £200 +VAT by a Huddersfield company who tell me that this is a reduction on their normal fee as they are so busy in Hebden.

Two questions (the first is really a plea)

1. I have a pal who is unemployed. Is there a surveyor out there who would be willing to do one for free (or at a very reduced fee which his mates will pay for)?

2. Failing that I could hook him up with another pal on Oxford Street who also has two neighbours who will require surveys doing making four in all.

Offers or quotes for either proposition would be very welcome. I've been into the Town hall and they were not able to give me the names of any surveyors although my request will be passed on. I'm not on Facebook so if anyone who is has seen something on there either email me or ring on 843105.

Thanks in advance.
