Highlights

"David and his son, Aaron came to view the property and identified two issues: rising damp in the front & rear and a small leak to the front of the property. An injection of a cream damp-proof membrane was injected, front & rear, the leak identified and fixed and the walls and ceiling replastered. It’s clear from the drying plaster that the leak and damp are fixed. David & Aaron have carried out a brilliant job. And we would use them again without hesitation. The work has been carried to a very high standard and at a very reasonable cost. I highly recommend their work. Thank you."

David undertook Rising Damp Remediation in a bedroom and also supplied and fitted a Positive Ventilation System installation to help prevent condensation issues in the house. He did an excellent job on both counts. He was friendly, hard-working and punctual and cleaned-up on completion. We are very pleased with the work he did for us and would have no hesitation in recommending him to resolve any Damp, Condensation & mould problems.

We asked David for an estimate to fix a damp problem on the outside and inside of our kitchen wall. He arrived punctually for the initial estimate and gave us a clear explanation of the work necessary to cure the problem. David and Ian have carried out the work today to an extremely high standard and have left everything clean and tidy. They were polite, courteous and excellent tradesmen, so 5* all round. We would recommend to anyone.

David and his Son were excellent. Work carried out efficiently and with a minimum of fuss. Both polite and informative. They worked around the fact I have no parking outside my house and cleaned up really well after the work was done. Gave an accurate quote with no hidden extras. They were respectful of my home and of the 6 cats in it! Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

"From the initial visit and throughout the 3 days, the job was scheduled to take place, David and his son, Aaron, certainly merited the very positive reviews given by their previous customers. A step by step explanation was provided, as to how the problem with damp to our property was to be solved, with the work being completed to a very high standard. We would definitely recommend David’s company to other potential customers."

David was brilliant. He is quiet and methodical. He completed the job exactly as described without any fuss or drama. He cleaned up afterwards and left the flat in great condition. I would certainly use him again.

I initially met David on site to provide an estimate and he was on time, polite and courteous. He provided a quotation and how long the work would take there and then. On the day of the work he turned up on time. I left a key with him and asked him to let me know when the work was finished. He called me the next day to inform me the work had been completed upon which when going back round to the property everything was clean and tidy with no dust at all. Couldn't have asked for a better Job!

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.
