    Very friendly and helpful

    Jake was very helpful regarding telephone advice to address damp in my bathroom. The job is very small so not something requiring on site visit.

    Outstanding Team

    Posted 6 days ago

    I had my house surveyed for a rising damp treatment by HBSC ; the surveyor was really thorough with where the issue was coming from. It felt very different from other companies that offered what seemed only to be a quick fix. The job was big ; from DPC treatment to ventilation, joist removal and floorboard replacement. The team that came to my house to perform the work was outstanding ; Sam & Bob have gone above and beyond their responsibilities. The job was clean, on time and extremely well done. I'm so glad to have had the chance to have them taking care of the work. I would only recommend!

    Honest advice

    Posted 13 August

    Had a damp survey done and was really happy with how it went. The surveyor was easy to talk to, explained what was going on, and didn’t try to sell me anything I didn’t need. Just honest advice and a proper chat about the best way forward.
