  • Damp proofing

    10Verified Review

    I would highly recommend Ryan and John for damp proofing / plastering work. Ryan is extremely knowledgeable and kept us fully updated throughout the work, especially when unexpected challenges cropped up! The work is of the highest standard and they left my house clean and tidy afterwards. We would definitely use them again and would recommend.

  • Damp-proofing most of downstairs

    10Verified Review

    We honestly couldn't recommend Ryan and the team enough! From start to finish he was the best we spoke to. Came round and ran a number of checks to locate all areas of damp, including advising that an area other people had tried to sell us damp proofing on didn't need it. Once working at the house, he sent regular updates and they kept the house so tidy! We weren't living in it while the work was being done and it would have been quite easy for them to leave the mess there until the last day but every single day they cleaned and removed their waste. Unbelievably happy with the finish!

    Had an excellent experience with RB Plastering. Ryan provided us with updates throughout the works, promptly answered any questions that we had and the completed work was done to a very high standard. We would highly recommend RB Plastering.

    10Verified Review

    From start to finish they were completely professional, friendly and helpful in explaining all the steps of the work. The quote was free and thoroughly detailed what would take place, from that point they were very prompt booking a date in to carry out the work. I was sent video updates throughout to keep me posted on what was happening, and there was minimal mess left from the work, just some dust which can't be helped. The consistent level of communication and a very reasonable cost - lower than others I'd been quoted - really sets these guys apart as an excellent standard. Highly recommend!

    Contacted R B Plastering and Damproofing for a diagnosis of some damp in 2 rooms Ryan responded quickly and came to see us when he said he would he gave us a full diagnosis and recommended a reputable company to contact to carry out the work when we were ready to. We would recommend Ryan and his company to others he was honest and genuine two rare qualities in any business these days.

Company info

RB Plastering & Damp-proofing Ltd has over 20 years experience in the plastering and damp-proofing industry. I am a CSRT trained damp and timber surveyor and also a qualified damp-proofing technician completed through the PCA (PCAQT). I am qualified to NVQ level 3 in solid plastering and also NVQ level 2 in dry-lining (suspended ceilings and partition walls). The company is a Wykamol approved contractor. Aside from myself I have two full time employees who have both completed, and passed, damp and timber technician training through Wykamol. All rising damp treatment is offered with a 20 year contractor guarantee as standard and I am able to offer insurance backed guarantees through a company called CGS. I am a CITB registered employer.


Areas I specialise in but aren't limited to:

Dry rot

Wet rot

Rising damp

Penetration damp



I have the most up to date equipment available (including thermal imaging) to diagnose the causes and sources of any type of damp in any home. The testing we complete is thorough and in-depth but in my view essential to obtain all relevant information to determine what issues are happening within your home. An inspection will normally take around 60 - 90 minutes to complete and discuss with a customer (possibly longer if a sub-floor void inspection is necessary). A full written report will then be sent via e-mail advising of the findings and recommendations of remedial works if necessary.
