Highlights
"Incredible professionalism and efficiency! Hysen was brilliant, a same-day competitive quote was provided. On the day of the work they were there on time and were very polite and keen to get on with the work. There was great explanation of the issue (rising damp) and no messing around with suggesting extra work etc. The work was completed really well and they were incredibly tidy. Would thoroughly recommend Syla Damproofing."
"Knowledgable, trustworthy and a professional job that was well done with minimal fuss"
"Hysen and his team were from start to finish excellent! They listened to what we needed, came with a reasonable quote and did the job in a timely manner and cleaned up after themselves! Highly recommend them! Our basement is so much better now. A big thank you!"

Hysen was able to provide a free quote for the work and gave a thorough proposal of what needed to be done. The work was completed on time and as per the quote. Thank you

Syla and team did a great job of turning a damp basement into a usable and dry space. Very sophisticated approach and they understand how to manage water ingress. Plenty of builders would advise tanking and concrete but Syla understands the correct way of removing water using a technical approach. Also turned up on time, removed all the waste, good pricing. This is the best option for a damp basement
Very polite and professional
Did a very good job. Completed work in timeframe he promised. Good guy.
Punctual. Great job. No complaints.
Already recommended to friends & family. Reliable, honest & competitive pricing..
Brilliant service from start to finish. Advised on what needed to be done, did great work and really good value for money. I have already recommend this business to many contacts.
I recommend Hysen and his team, we were happy with the work they carried out in our premises.

Before you hire a builder
Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
