    Woodworm treatment

    I used cedar preservation to treat woodworm in our garage roof frames, they replied fast, and came and did the job really well and were easy to use. I would recommend them, I have used them previously on other properties. Thanks nick

    Damp Investigation

    Posted 20 April

    Fitting of a specialist condensation unit

    We thought we had a rising damp issue so looked into damp specialists and Cedar Preservation came up. They came out to survey the problem and concluded that the issue was due to condensation. We received the recommendations and a quote for fitting a specialist condensation unit in the roof space. The fitting only took a couple of hours which included putting a vent through the landing ceiling. They were very clean and tidy with no dust left from the drilling. Our electrician connected the power later that day and we haven’t had any condensation since.
