    Woodworm Treatment

    Posted 21 May

    Woodworm previously found in roof beams treated

    Blackburn roofing came to my house and did a full inspection, he found roof beams had some woodworm and needed treating, once I bought the house I had this work carried out. He was very professional, on time and respectful of my property throughout his time at my home.

    Woodworm survey

    John was very helpful keeping me informed throughout, the job has not yet been completed as I have not actioned it yet but he carried out a full survey of the property and was transparent on the work that needed to be done. Cost of work was invoiced fully and we are yet to action the work to be carried out.
