“A replacement Lintle was needed above front door. Repointing in an area which was causing damp in a bedroom. These lads are very polite and considerate. Explained what was needed to be done. Kept me updated at each stage. Tidied up after themselves. Even washed a bit of carpet that had been accidentaly marked with plaster. Went above and beyond, they noticed down pipe from gutter at back was loose. They fixed it back in place and cleared debris from gutter at front of the house. I would most certainly recommend this company and will use their services again.”

Highlights
“Replaced lintle above front door. Repointed brickwork in top corner at the front of the house. Took off old plaster and replastered damp wall in bedroom. The lads were extremely polite, explained what needed doing and got on with it. They Covered carpets and furniture and cleared up after themselves. They went above and beyond, by fixing the down pipe which had come loose from the gutter at the back of the house and cleared the gutter at the front Which neither were near the place they were to there to fix. I would most certainly recommend this company to anyone.”

Damp and timber work isn't licensed in the UK, and "rising damp" is often over-diagnosed - so a real qualification matters. Property Care Association members hold recognised damp-surveying qualifications (CSRT/CSSW), follow a code of ethics and must have traded at least three years. Check they're a PCA member before you accept a damp-treatment quote.
Check the PCA registerGet an INDEPENDENT damp survey, not a free one from the firm that wants to sell you the treatment. A free survey has every incentive to diagnose expensive 'rising damp', when the problem is often condensation, a leak, or high ground level that needs no chemical injection.
Insist they identify and fix the underlying CAUSE (a leak, blocked airbricks, poor ventilation, failed pointing) before agreeing to an injected damp-proof course, and ask them to explain why simpler fixes won't work.
Get the diagnosis and an itemised quote in writing, and be wary of pressure to sign on the spot for a long 'guarantee' that is only worth anything while that firm is still trading.
