Timber and Damp Appraisal

Damp and timber problems are some of the most mis-diagnosed and mis-treated areas in the whole spectrum of housing, simply because clients put their trust in salesmen who have a vested interest in selling them treatments of one kind or another.

Most people have no idea whether these treatment will actually work and often they are never told of the alternatives that may be available. What's more, they can be encouraged to contact unknown companies by building society surveyors, who regularly advise mortgage applicants and others to consult a specialist company.

Unfortunately they seldom clarify exactly what it is they mean by 'specialist' and people very often contact any local advertiser who offers them a sweetener in the form of a free survey.

The survey may be free, but the subsequent bill for unecessary repairs and treatments may be enormous!

We offer unbiased advice on timber and damp problems and can often point clients in the direction of lowest cost remedies and solutions.
