Why Damp and Mould Should Not Be Ignored

Damp and mould can damage the fabric of a building and create unhealthy living conditions if left untreated. A professional survey helps you address the root cause, avoid unnecessary work and protect both the property and the people living in it.

Damp and Mould Survey

If you are dealing with damp problems in your property, our damp and mould survey service provides clear answers and practical solutions. We support homeowners and property professionals, helping identify the cause of dampness and how best to treat it.

Damp and mould can affect any building, particularly older buildings where moisture ingress and ventilation issues are more common. Whether you have noticed black mould, musty smells or damage to plaster and walls, our experienced surveyor will carry out a detailed inspection to assess the extent of the problem.

Our team combines local knowledge with a high standard of service, ensuring every survey is thorough and easy to understand.

Professional Damp Surveys

We carry out damp surveys for both domestic and commercial properties. Each survey is tailored to the specific property and carried out in depth to identify all relevant issues.

Our inspection includes:

  • Identification of rising damp and penetrating damp
  • Assessment of condensation linked to poor ventilation
  • Checks for moisture ingress through external walls and external levels
  • Measurement of moisture levels
  • Inspection of timber where required through timber surveys

We look for signs of damp such as peeling plaster, mould growth and damage caused by excess moisture.

Identifying Damp Problems and Causes

Damp issues can develop for a number of reasons, including poor ventilation, heating patterns, or defects in the building.

We assess:

  • Rising damp linked to a failed or missing damp proof course
  • Penetrating damp caused by water entering through external walls
  • Condensation problems linked to everyday activities such as cooking and heating

During winter months, condensation can increase due to cold surfaces and limited ventilation, often leading to mould growth and black mould.

Understanding the root cause is essential, as damp left untreated can lead to structural issues and further damage to the property.

Damp Proofing and Treatment Advice

We provide independent advice on damp proofing and treatment, without promoting unnecessary work.

Where required, we may recommend:

  • Installation or repair of a damp proof course
  • Structural waterproofing or basement waterproofing
  • Targeted damp proofing solutions to stop penetrating damp
  • Improvements to ventilation to help keep your home warm and dry
  • Increase insulation
  • Basement tanking

As damp proofing specialists and damp proofing specialists with local expertise, we focus on long term results for your property. We understand historic properties well too, so happy to help with any property challenge you may be having.

Detailed Reports and Clear Guidance

After your survey, you will receive a detailed report outlining all findings.

Your report will include:

  • A clear explanation of damp problems and mould issues
  • Identification of the root cause
  • Photographic evidence
  • Practical recommendations for treatment and repairs

We also offer advice following your survey to discuss the findings and next steps in detail.

Supporting Property Owners

We work with property owners, homeowners and commercial clients, covering a wide range of building types.

Our services are suitable for:

  • Domestic and commercial properties
  • Commercial properties requiring specialist assessments
  • Older buildings and properties with complex damp issues

Our local experts understand how damp can affect different types of building and tailor each survey accordingly.

Why Early Damp Investigation Matters

Damp problems can affect the comfort, condition and value of your property if not addressed.

Early investigation helps you:

  • Identify damp problems before they worsen
  • Prevent mould growth and improve indoor conditions
  • Protect walls, plaster and structural elements
  • Avoid more extensive repairs in the future

Taking action early is essential to maintaining a safe and healthy living environment.
