Damp can be caused by a range of issues, including rising damp from the ground, penetrating damp due to leaks or damaged masonry, condensation from excess moisture in the air, or even faulty gutters and drains. Our surveyors will assess your property to identify the exact cause and recommend the right solution.

Yes, especially if you're seeing signs of damp or planning to buy a new property. A professional damp survey will help you understand the cause, severity, and best course of action. It’s the first step toward protecting your home (and your wallet) from long-term damage.

Costs can vary depending on the type of damp, the size of the affected area, and the treatment required. We carry out an initial damp survey so we can assess your property properly and provide a clear, fixed-price quote with no hidden fees.

Most treatments are completed within a few days, depending on the size of the job. We'll always give you a clear timeline upfront, and we work hard to minimise disruption to your home.
