Jo completed the survey and was brilliant with my tenant - turns out it isn’t damp but Mould due to lack of proper heating and ventilation. My tenants and I have been given advice regards to this and I have also been given options for how I can help prevent this in future.

FAQs

I cover all of London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex and Berkshire.

I am happy to conduct surveys elsewhere should I have the capacity. Simply contact me to find out my availability.

I use different types of electronic moisture meters, thermal imaging (as required), wall surface temperature guns and hygrometers.

The readings from these will be analysed along with the notes from all visual inspections to compile your full damp timber report.

The cost of a survey will vary based on the size of property, location of the property and the type and scale of survey that is required.
