We opted for a Ferring and Goring based firm for our conveyancing in Ferring and Goring recently. After carefully reading the small print I noteI am on the hook for costs even if our purchase aborts. Should I ditch them and instruct a web based firm who offer no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Ferring and Goring?

Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted.
