I recently bought a Grade II listed building in a conservation area, not realising the extent of the damp and water ingress problems prior to purchasing. This can cause real distress, not knowing the cause or remedy. Step in John and Alison. As well as being lovely people, they are very knowledgeable in their field. They reassured me and helped alleviate some of the stress by breaking down concepts and explaining the reasons behind the damp issues over the course of the day.Equipped with a selection of measurement devices, they surveyed both the interior and exterior of my property, providing their initial prognosis verbally on the day. A few days later, I received a comprehensive report detailing all the areas of concern and indicating the priority level for each task. This report has been very useful when contacting contractors to carry out the various repairs.They were well worth the money and know how to treat historic buildings correctly, unlike some other surveyors who merely suggest lining the walls with plastic and hoping for the best. Many thanks indeed!
