Highlights

"We had extensive work done in our home. Steve, John, Daz, Russ, Rob and Andy were all very knowledgeable and professional throughout, worked tirelessly in what we would deem horrible conditions and gave us outstanding finished spaces. They were consistently communicative, considerate of our home, and cleaned up before leaving every day. Due to the age of our property and the work it needed, their quote was very competitive and we would not hesitate to call on them again. They have our highest recommendation."

"We needed some damp proofing and timber rot treatment that was picked up on a survey, and Steve and his team were competitively priced, honest, reliable and able to come out at short notice. They left the house tidy after each day so that it wasn't like living in a building site, and were able to offer practical solutions to any issues. Would definitely recommend."

Called out as suspected damp in several areas of the house. Survey was efficient and clear about what was required. Quote was competitive. Clear communication throughout. Workmen were very polite and respectful of our house. Very thorough job and re-plastered all rooms to a very high standard. Best bit was came home from work and other than the job been done we wouldn't have known they had been there. Really tidy and cleaned up very well. Without doubt would use again and recommend.

Steve got in touch straight away, came to look and quote, came when he said he would and on time, which was great as we had been let down three times by other tradesmen. Communication all through was excellent. Shout out to Darren who did the job, again on time. Minimal mess very efficient and knowledgeable and polite and a nice man all round. Despite there being time issues from out side , Steve was accommodating and worked round it. All in all a great find

We have had two houses damp proofed by Steve in a couple of months. He always keeps you well informed, he is incredibly helpful and very professional. Can't rate him highly enough to be honest.

I initially asked for recommendations for a damp proofing company on Facebook and Acorn came up several times, so I got in touch. They were quick to respond and organised an on site visit to assess what needed to be done. Steve was great at explaining everything, which was very reassuring. Now the work has been carried out, they have done a fantastic job - the walls are incredibly neat and the house has been left immaculate. Would highly recommend this excellent service. Many thanks

Steve provided excellent expert advice on damp issues in two of our rooms. First impressions and workmanship count for a lot and Steve and team did not disappoint. From day 1 when he promptly arrived to give advice to the last day when he completed the works, Steve and team were professional and polite, providing us with an excellent service at very short notice. They couldn’t do enough for you, we were really impressed and would not hesitate to recommend them for damp proofing issues. Thanks Steve, your help is much appreciated.

We wanted someone to check our property to determine if we had any Rising Damp. Steve (of Acorn Damp Proofing Ltd) came to do this - he was punctual, polite, professional and very knowledgeable. Such a welcome delight to have someone who was friendly and had the customer's concerns at heart without being pushy . . . Top Man. Anybody asks me for a recommendation regarding 'damp-proofing' etc. it will most certainly be directed towards Steve from Acorn Damp Proofing.

Steve and team were absolutely fabulous from day one. My mum is 86 and doesn't want any hassle from work being done, it turns out she had a lovely morning full of laughter and a solution for the damp. Mum was so impressed with the work fitted and how tidy they were. Steve also very kindly communicated with me also to keep me informed. Absolutely wonderful company. 10/10

Smart checks

Before you hire a roofer

Never agree to roof work from a cold-caller at your door or an unsolicited 'we noticed your roof' note — that is the classic roofing scam.
Get a written quote that itemises access (scaffolding or a tower), the exact materials, and the workmanship guarantee — not a vague day rate.
Be wary of demands for a large cash deposit; agree staged payments against work you can actually see completed.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
