Our Free Survey can diagnose your damp issues
Our Free of charge survey is always honest and accurate and if that means there is none or only a small amount of work to rectify an issue then thats what we will recommend.
We recently carried out a survey on a Victorian terraced house in Yeovil and for the most part the house was in excellent condition. At ground floor we identified a few isolated areas of visible staining and these where accompanied by meter readings common to rising damp. Treatment of rising damp normally requires plaster to be replaced and a chemical damp proof course injected and even for small areas this will always take at least a couple of days as plaster coats need to dry however our costs are fixed and small jobs are priced as exactly that !
Customer was happy with the price so the works where completed, old plaster was removed, damp proof course injected and new plastering completed.
Even though the entire works encompassed less than 2 linear metres our full guarantee still applies so even if you think that your job is too small or you’re not even sure if you need any work then give us a call today to arrange your FREE of charge survey or complete the online survey request form…..

Some of the services we offer in property preservation
If you have issues in your home such as peeling paint or loose plaster, mould spotting or visible stains and ‘tide’ marks then you may have a damp problem and if so we have the solution. Whether it’s rising or penetrating damp we will provide you with a diagnosis and the solution.
Condensation in its simplest form is when moist air comes into contact with colder air or a colder surface and the water contained in the air is released to form condensation in the air or on the surface. It often results in black mould growth on walls and surfaces or you can see water droplets.
Aged and Period properties can often be cold and condensation will form on external walls, we can provide various types of solid insulation and often incorporate this with a level of damp proofing. Internal temperatures will improve and mould spotting reduces.
