Testimonials
“Vail Williams have acted on my behalf, successfully gaining reductions in my business rates for the past three Revaluations. They always let me know how my appeal is progressing and are quick to respond to any of my concerns. They have gained reductions for temporary building works as well as general reductions in my assessment. Their knowledge of Rating Valuation law is excellent and our Valuer at Vail Williams is very personable, I would recommend them to anyone”
Rod Hillier - Beken and Son Photographic Retail
“Vail Williams have been dealing with our south of England rating work since the 2000 rating list was published. We wanted to move away from the big, impersonal firms we had been using before then, and Vail Williams was recommended to us. We gave them the work, and they have been with us through all the subsequent revaluations. We like to deal with small, specialist firms whenever we can and Vail Williams are a great example of why: the personal service, the fast responses to unreasonable questions, the bright ideas and the accessibility of Directors who know both what they are doing and what you need from them. And they are nice guys as well!”
