Highlights

"Ben is very professional, VERY tidy and very good at what he does, has really good communication and was polite and efficient. Reasonably priced and I would 100% recommend for anyone needing damp issues sorted in their house!"

"Ben and Kevin from Rightway Preservations were absolutely brilliant on a recent job to strip back a crumbling internal wall, damp proof and replaster (also sorting some rendering and exterior activity). You could set your watch by them in the mornings, they were engaging, explained what and why they were doing what they were doing and the area was clear and tidy when all the work was completed. So pleased with the result and would highly recommend Rightway Preservations to others"

"We have used this contractor over a period of years and always found them to be efficient in all aspects of the jobs in hand, we own and let out several properties in and around the Bristol area which means that the company staff have to be polite and able to converse with out tenants on our behalf."

Ben put in a new damp proof course and redid the sand/cement/plastering in my home. He was a nice chap to have around the house, I felt he did a very thorough and skilled job and went over and above to do things well, including refitting rads and skirting boards. He was always clear about what he was doing and cleaned up afterwards. Would recommend to anyone needing damp work done well.

I had some rain water penetrating the bricks on an exterior wall. Kevin did a great job surveying the problem and applying a fix. And has since come along to check on it again too. I hve also called back for some more internal work to be done too. Reliable and friendly.

Ben from Rightway Preservations was quick to respond to our initial contact. He was able to visit the house within a few days and quickly assess the issues and suggest appropriate action. Ben was polite and patient answering our questions while visiting, and afterwards by email. He gave us a great (and accurate) quote which we happily accepted. He and his colleague, Derek, promptly got to work on the house. They always turned up promptly and left the house in good order at the end of each day. They were happy to explain what they were doing and what the next steps were. Would recommend.

Kevin and Ben came and completed damp proofing, tanking and Timber treatments on my property. The work was carried out to a very high standard they were a pleasure to work with and very informative with any questions I had throughout the process. I would highly recommend them to carry out any damp proofing on your property.

Kevin & Mark serviced my outdoor garden office and were fantastic. After a long search on the internet I found Rightway and Kevin was by far the most responsive to my enquiry than any other potentials for the job. He arrived for a survey before Christmas and got the job booked in and done promptly for the first week back after Christmas. It was a joy to have Kevin & Mark around!

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.
