    Damp and room restoration

    Posted 19 June

    Excellent firm for fixing damp and restoring your property. We have just had a great experience with them. The work was done in phases, initially plastering, then installing ventilation systems to fixing renders; the attention was formidable. Highlighting Michelle and James to name a few. Keep them in your list !

    Would not recommend

    Posted 26 May

    Very disappointed with this company. I asked them to do a damp survey on a house I was interested in purchasing, at a cost of £600. The vendor was there during the survey. They said the surveyor spent 15 minutes at the property and didn't take any moisture readings. The results of the survey said there wasn't any damp in a room when my level 3 builders survey said there was significant damp and elevated moisture levels. I asked them if the seller's version of events was correct; that was five weeks ago and I am still awaiting a response. I do not recommend using this company.

    Response from Bramley & Stone - Period Property Damp & Timber Specialists

    Nikola, thank you for speaking with us. We refunded your survey fee in full and appreciated your offer to remove the review, though Checkatrade's policies don't allow this once submitted. We do want to note that the account of a 15 minute visit with no readings taken came from the vendor, not from you as our client. Our surveyor's account differs significantly. We're sorry the experience didn't meet our standards. We wish you well. Mike, Bramley & Stone

    Do not touch with a bargepole

    Posted 28 April

    Do not touch Bramley and Stone with a bargepole. Their incompetence knows no bounds, and I paid a heavy price for employing them to remove dry rot which was attacking the floors and walls of my bathroom, small toilet and adjoining bedroom. Do not believe the founder and principal surveyor Mike Walker’s claptrap that he “provides honest, skilled and sympathetic care for period properties.” He carried out an inspection in August 2025 and quoted a price of £3000 to remove the affected timber and plaster and treat them with a fungicide. I got rather worried on the first day when a man called James

    Response from Bramley & Stone - Period Property Damp & Timber Specialists

    Murray, we carried out the agreed dry rot removal and recommended a drainage survey when a further fresh patch was found in an adjoining area to be sure there were no new active water sources. The subfloor void was left open at your request, which we advised against. We offered to return to site and note that you opted to employ another company that had a commercial interest in recommending further treatment to you which you proceeded with without notifying us. Our door remains open and I’m disappointed this did not get resolved when every effort was made. Mike

    Fantastic Company

    Posted 22 December 2025

    We recently moved into a property in Hartley Wintney with a number of different damp issues. Mike came out and took the time to talk through the issues and provided an upfront cost. Jay and the team were fantastic whilst the work was being carried out - they took time to answer all our questions and nothing was too much trouble. The work is of the highest standard, the house was spotless after the work was completed and the team were friendly and courteous. Bramley & Stone clearly understand older properties and it shows - we are delighted with the results and will be using them again.

    Highly recommend this company!

    Posted 17 December 2025

    The whole team were really professional to deal with, right from the initial inquiry to signing off the works. Our project turned out to be a bigger one than we all thought due to hidden water ingress. A plan B was put in place with up front pricing for the extra work involved and the works were still completed in the original timeframe. The site operatives worked really hard and so did our senior surveyor! Really happy and grateful to have our living room safe again! Would happily recommend Bramley and stone!

    Brandon and Nick were very knowledgeable and helpful. Saved us from being ripped off by another team. They were professional and excellent throughout which really put our minds at ease.
