Highlights
"We contacted Ben after a long-term water leak was discovered and rectified by our plumber however the wall behind the leak remained damp. Ben was extremely efficient, quick and easy to deal with, managing to fit us around his other jobs at very short notice. The work area, in the kitchen, was left clean and tidy after each visit. After removing the damaged plaster and render, injecting a new DPC and re-rendering/re-plastering, the final finish was brilliant especially bearing in mind the difficulty in skimming behind existing pipework. We would thoroughly recommend using Ben."
"Ben investigated damp in the sitting room and landing of my 150 year old cottage. He advised on remedial work which he then carried out after supplying me with a detailed estimate of the cost and work involved. This involved moving old and damaged plaster, tanking walls and re plastering. He also injected a new damp proof course. Ben worked neatly and tidily, removed all rubbish from site. I would highly recommend him. 0"
"Professional, personable, fairly priced and tidy. Would highly recommend."
