10 Penetrating Damp Treatment
Posted 1 day ago
Damp survey
We were worried about some damp so booked a survey. The chap who came round was helpful and explained things so we could actually understand what was going on. Glad we had it checked.Verified reviewerJob location: OL310 Rising Damp

Friendly team and a tidy job
Had SecoMUR installed for rising damp. The lads talked me through what they were doing and what to expect while the walls dry out. Friendly bunch and left everything tidy. Happy with the work.Verified reviewerJob location: SW12Response from Home Building & Surveying Company

Honest advice and no hard sell
Had someone out to look at a damp patch and it turned out to be a leak. Glad we got it checked before spending money on damp treatment. Explained what was going on and didn’t try to sell us anything we didn’t need.Verified reviewerJob location: HA8Response from Home Building & Surveying Company

10 Mould Control
Posted 17 October
Honest, Professional and Reassuring Mould/Damp Inspection
Matt was friendly and incredibly professional when assessing the mould in my flat. He was honest and explained that I simply needed to replace the affected flooring rather than undertake expensive, unnecessary damp treatment. I really appreciated his straightforward advice and the fact that he wasn't trying to sell me services I didn't need. He put my mind at ease and potentially saved me a considerable amount of money. I would highly recommend this company.Job location: SE8Response from Home Building & Surveying Company

Damp proofing and plastering done well
Had a damp proof course installed and the affected walls replastered. The team explained what was involved and got on with the work without any fuss. Really pleased with the plastering finish, and they cleaned up well afterwards. A good experience from start to finish.Verified reviewerJob location: NG18Response from Home Building & Surveying Company
