Highlights

"Had a complete damp course throughout the house. Luke came out to do the initial survey. He was fantastic from start to finish- really personable, professional and competent. He explained everything very thoroughly and ensured we knew/understood exactly what work was needed. Lee and the team who carried out the work are a credit to the company- really lovely and trustworthy people. They left the house very tidy once the work was done. Communication with the wider team (June and Becky) was also very professional and friendly. Absolutely cannot recommend this company enough. Thank you:)"

"I was very happy with the process from start to finish, they came out and checked where I had found issues, explained to me why, how it could be rectified and what they could do to resolve the issue. Booking in was straight forward, they arrived on the day, on time, polite and cracked on, they were respectful to my house and finished the job with no issues and no drama. This is the kind of service you want and the kind I would be happy to go back to if I do find anymore issues in my house"

"Lee and Lukeash were amazing and so friendly. They came to fit an air brick, some damp proof board I cannot remember the name of and replaster my bedroom closet after finding damp/mould. They were very professional and very very respectful of my 2 cats which one has an illness stress can trigger. They were so efficient to keep my cats stress level down and that was a highlight for me. The work was amazingly done and they didn’t leave any mess. Thank you, hopefully I won’t need it but will return if I ever do."

We were really pleased with DPS from Stuart’s thorough survey to Dave and Lee on the day. Stuart explained things carefully which we appreciated. Dave and Lee were good to have around - cheerful, communicative and tidy. They did a great job. We would happily recommend DPS to others as a good professional firm with a personal touch!

Damp Proofing Solutions carried out work on 4.5m2 of rising damp in an Edwardian terraced house in Evesham. The blistering plaster was in three locations and was stripped back to brick, a cream damp proofing solution injected into the mortar, then a polypropylene membrane was attached to the tanking coat before applying two coats of plaster. A ten year guarantee was provided backed by the PCA. The two plasterers completed the work in about 5 hours leaving the premises reasonably tidy with all waste removed. The Company was chosen on the basis of cost ( three quotes obtained) and availability.

DPS were similarly professional as when they last performed work at my house. They arrived promptly, early in the morning, and a sizeable amount of work was complete by early afternoon. It looked expertly done and their staff were curious and polite. Please be aware that fixtures like skirting board were not reattached, and if DPS wished to further improve their service, this would be appreciated.

We've recently purchased a property with a hidden damp problem. We were really worried about the treatment and the time it would take to complete. From the moment I've met Luke for a quote right through to completion of work, everyone behaved in a very professional manner. Luke was able to squeeze us into their busy schedule. The process of treating our damp issue was explained in detail. The communication with the office was second to none. The finished effect is obviously yet to be determined, but the house was left in the condition as expected and new plaster is looking good.

Great experience from start to finish. The survey was thorough and clearly set out the proposed solution and quote. The lads who came to do the job, arrived early and were really friendly and happy to answer any questions. The work was completed to a really good standard and earlier than expected, leaving the room clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend Damp Proofing Solutions.

Excellent service from start to finish. Honest advice given on first inspection and then great job done. Friendly, tidy and hardworking. I initially thought the vent would damage the boards in the bathroom or ruin the aesthetics, but to the contrary! I already see and feel the benefits. Don't take chances on rogue traders! Damp Proofing Solutions are the real deal. I highly recommend them.

Professional service received from start to finish, by initial contact on phone, to person who came to investigate and quote, to the workmen that carried out the job. They did what they said they would do, on time and fit the price quoted. Would recommend willingly.

Sadly the work done has been massively undermined by damage done to my property, which the company failed to acknowledge or take responsibility for. The sales pitch oversells what state the place will be left in, and the customer service when trying to deal with this is shocking to say the least. I’m sure the work itself is good, but I shouldn’t be left with damage, a much bigger mess than I was promised, sockets hanging out (when I specifically checked if these would go back in) and incredibly disrespectful customer service.

I had issues with damp in two of my downstairs rooms. After contacting the company, a survey was done of the areas requiring attention, it was carried out professionally and I was given all the information needed to explain the cause of the problem. The quote given was reasonable and work started very quickly. The team who came to do the work arrived on time, were friendly, and worked efficiently and with great care to cover up and protect living areas from dust, and tidied up brilliantly! I was really impressed with the company from start to finish and would highly recommend them.

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.
