agree with @ReekBlefs, Id get the survey done now if you can
We also had no chain and ours took nearly 4 months, we instructed solicitor day after offer was accepted and had a surveyor round the following week.
As for asking for weekly updates, there may be periods at the start while waiting on local searches where a week between update is ok, but unless your solicitor is really good I would probably plan to be calling them every other day otherwise they will just sit on it.
If your deadline isnt important then I guess it doesnt matter if it slips a couple weeks, we had the stamp duty holiday to meet
