For mould, condensation, and damp
We inspect and assess all potential risks of damp or issues that could arise on your property in the future. If we see something that is not a cause for concern now but could be in the future, we will let you know.
​
One example is pointing
We will let you know if we find gaps in your brickwork, and if we recommend pointing to prevent problems in the future.
Pointing is the ‘finish’ between the bricks or stonework of your property, and the term used when repairing those mortar joints. Repointing prevents water from penetrating your property while letting the wall breathe and drain. Also, it must be flexible enough to allow for small changes caused by things like thermal responses and settlement.

What happens during a damp survey?During our consultation phase, we will gain a good history of what you have been experiencing with your damp problem. This will allow us to start the survey with a good idea of the main issues you have been facing and the location of mould or signs of damp. We will then carry out a full survey that typically lasts two to three hours. At this time your Damp Surveyor will check the moisture levels in floors, ceilings, walls, lofts, and cellars. Your damp surveyor will also test areas of your property for leaks including drains and thoroughly examine windows, doors, and roofs. After the survey is complete, your Damp Surveyor will discuss with you verbally the results of the survey and what is causing the problem. If a full written report is required, this can be supplied after 7 days at an additional cost.
