    Honest advice.

    Posted 6 days ago

    Great experience and a very honest person. Max came to assess our house for damp. Max looked outside the property, inside and asked what our concerns were. Max was honest and said that the issue was more condensation and gave us some further pointers to reduce it. His honesty was appreciated and meant no unnecessary cost for us.

    Damp inspection

    Posted 24 May

    Max was great, checked our damp wall and told us we didn't need him to do any work but instead recommended a plasterer. So nice to have someone knowledgeable and honest that could point us in the right direction with no charge. Highly recommend

    Lifting some floorboards in kitchen and hall and spraying wood with chemicals to treat woodworm.

    Posted 23 May

    Max is very knowledgeable and works efficiently. His price is reasonable and he gave me practical advice on dealing with my woodworm, including suggesting bigger ventillation grilles to improve underfloor ventillation.

    Rising Damp

    Posted 21 May

    From the outset Max was completely professional, and honest about what work was required. He offered his advice, and do not put me under pressure at any point. This was followed up a couple of days later with a printed copy of his survey, and an estimate of the work to be completed. We agreed a start date, and Max turned up on time as promised, he completed all of the work himself. max was on time every day, informing me of what he was doing at every point. The work was completed, and he left our house clean and tidy, taking all of the excess material with him. I would highly recommend him.

We are a small family run business and have been trading since the 80s.

I have been in construction since 1969 having served an apprenticeship in bricklaying which I gained a distinction. I worked on many prestigious projects over the years, in the city and west end of London including the Victoria and Albert museum, and many more.

I came into the remedial side of the business in the early 80s,and have been busy treating Damp and Timber problems ever since. We have resisted growing into a large firm because we like the hands on touch that only a family business can offer.
