Buying, selling, or simply looking for answers?

Whether you are a Home buyer looking for reassurance prior to purchase, a Seller preparing for the market, or simply want to protect your investment, we’re here to help. As Independent Consultants, we have no vested interest in finding or looking for work. If no work is considered necessary, we shall advise you accordingly. We provide clear and detailed reports, giving you cost-effective solutions.

Should significant damp or timber issues be discovered during the survey, we shall specify which remedial measures should be considered and provide a scope of works. This information can be used to seek comparative quotes from suitably qualified experts, based on the same specification. This will ensure that you are receiving the most cost-effective solution and we are happy to vet Contractor's reports and estimates, to help you decide on which Contractor to engage. We can guide you through the treatment process if required and give you peace of mind at every stage.
