Report
We found Magryn to be very courteous and professional. They explained the process and timelines, talked through the potential issues and kept to the original schedule. They did take longer than expected to supply an additional letter required for Development Approval but were appologetic and in the end provided exactly what we required. Overall a good experience and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Report
I recently contacted Magryn & Associates to discuss a cracking issue I had with a wall in my house. After discussing the issue over the phone, we organised a time to meet, and Terry was on site right on time, early that morning. He reviewed the issue and also answered every one of my questions in a very clear way. His report was very thorough and he even explained the questions which I had posed to a previous engineer (who wouldn't contact me about them). His costs were outlined prior to my accepting his services, and they were extremely accurate when comparing to the actual amount.
