Assured Preservations Limited

Having had contradictory diagnosis from several different companies for damp/moisture affecting the skirting boards in both bedrooms of double fronted bungalow my roofer recommended Assured Preservation because some of his customers had been very happy with the work undertaken by them. I arranged a free home visit. Paul arrived on time and after careful assessment/examination of the damaged areas he diagnosed the problem and recommended French drains to stop rainwater from settling by the external walls and change the damaged skirting board. Paul was professional, polite and very knowledgeable. I received detailed quote with diagrams of the work to be undertaken within a couple of days. 3 men undertook the work over 2 days arrived on time and were pleasant, professional, hard working leaving the place clean on completion. First class. These days you rarely find such a competent, conscientious and trust worthy company. Would definitely recommend this company.

Needed a substantial damp proof course on one side of the house. The initial survey carried out was quick, concise and clear. All details regarding the problem and subsequent work was clearly explained. The work was completed to a very high standard on time and with the minimum of disruption. The electrics and carpentry required as part of the damp proofing was included and again undertaken to the highest level. The team that came to the house were polite professional and very tidy. Would certainly recommend.

The agency managing our flat got in touch with Assured Preservations. Paul attended the property, made some sketches, took some notes and most importantly, he was happy to answer all my questions. After 2 days, he provided a report that was instrumental in understanding the next steps needed to address the damp problem in the house. Then he arranged a time frame that would work for us too and his team of 3 professional employees attended the property. In 2 days they damp proofed two rooms, serviced all heat recovery ventilation units and left the place in great condition. They also gave us a 30 year guarantee for rising damp which shows how serious and professional they are. Thank you!

We had four men working in our house for three days, they were the best workers anyone could wish for. They worked quick, they cleaned up all the mess they made which wasn't much. Polite, very friendly men. I would recommend them to anyone.

I am really impressed by this company. I had a problem that I was convinced was rising damp and was mentally prepared for an expensive repair involving replacement of some of the damp-proof course. Over the phone I arranged for a home visit and their representative arrived exactly on time. After spending some time assessing the problem including the use of meters to confirm what he was finding, he assured me that the issue was purely one of condensation and advised me on how I could easily overcome it. He could easily have quoted me for a lot of expensive work and I would have been none the wiser. Instead I found myself dealing with a competent and honest company- I rate them first class.

I just had a huge job done by Assured Preservations which involved my basement flat. I have been so impressed with Paul & his team in the job they've done, their communication & the after care. Couldn't recommend them enough.

For all those who have endured the dreaded dry rot, Paul and his team are the perfect solution. No frills...honest and practical solutions. I am quite anxiety prone .... (with dry rot who wouldn't be!!) ... and Paul could have easily recommended costly and unnecessary remedial works.... on the contrary he reined me in!!. Anyone who is looking for a professional, conscientious and trust worthy individual, look no further.

Paul and his team put in a waterproof plaster system (SIKA) for us in several rooms in a small flat. They did a high quality job, with the minimum of fuss and they got it done fast. Unlike some companies that I asked to quote, this company has the range of skills needed to deal with some of the minor jobs before and after the re-plastering - eg taking down some cupboards for us, putting in boxing and re-installing a (decorative) fireplace. This made life a lot easier. When we developed an electrical problem mid-way through, the team took the time to thoroughly investigate possible causes, and made all efforts to try and fix the problem (which turned out to be unrelated to the works). Paul managed the team's time well, with the main works completed exactly as promised, and an extra, last-minute job (a screed floor) also finished pretty promptly despite being unplanned. They took away all mess as they went along, which was appreciated by our neighbours, and they did a good job of tidying up and completing. They took good care of our flat - and they were good value compared to the other quotes I received. Paul's advice was helpful, and we got things done to a good quality standard, but still at a a reasonable cost. Polite, professional and with a lot of experience. I would definitely use them again.

Had widespread rising damp in my house. Dreaded the upheaval, mess etc. and the fact that I would have any number of builders in the house for a period. None of my misgivings came to fruition. The whole experience was virtually pain free, the workmen friendly, helpful, polite, efficient and hardworking, and always tidied up each day.

My husband and I have been having some problems with a wet wall/a bit of mould in one of the bedrooms. We contacted this company after reading some good reviews on here and on StreetLife. We had a free consultation and my husband was very happy with the service (I was not present). They provided us with lots of helpful advice regarding how to solve the problem and what steps to take. They did not try to rip us off (which seems to be the norm these days?? So many bad experiences recently), or to sell us products that we may not need for now. We will definitely call them again in the future if we need further assistance.
