Highlights
"I am so impressed by the work Che carried out, he done a full renovation, including fitting bathroom, kitchen, internal wall, doors and frames, full decoration and damp prevention treatment. I am delighted with all his work and the results are remarkable. Che gave me sound advice from the outset and throughout the process. He took great care and paid high attention to detail, his communication is excellent. I highly recommend Canning Property Services, Che is very reliable and trustworthy. I feel lucky to have met such a great quality contractor."
"The work done was excellent. Ché did a great pre-inspection to identify issues and was thorough compared with other contractors who quoted. He was always on time, identified and rectified other issues and explained what was being done. All the work was finished to a great standard and care was taken on the final appearance. He was always tidy, polite, careful and it was a pleasure having the work done by him."
"I am very happy with the work Ché carried out at my property to inject a chemical damp proofer, replaster a wall and install a new skirting board. Great communication from start to finish, with every aspect of the job explained. Each day Ché arrived on time, went to great lengths to protect my carpet during the works and left the house cleaner than when he arrived. Really nice guy, kept to his quote and produced a quality job. I can thoroughly recommend and would definitely use again."

Damp and timber work isn't licensed in the UK, and "rising damp" is often over-diagnosed - so a real qualification matters. Property Care Association members hold recognised damp-surveying qualifications (CSRT/CSSW), follow a code of ethics and must have traded at least three years. Check they're a PCA member before you accept a damp-treatment quote.
Check the PCA registerGet an INDEPENDENT damp survey — not a free one from the firm that wants to sell you the treatment. A free survey has every incentive to diagnose expensive 'rising damp', when the problem is often condensation, a leak, or high ground level that needs no chemical injection.
Insist they identify and fix the underlying CAUSE — a leak, blocked airbricks, poor ventilation, failed pointing — before agreeing to an injected damp-proof course, and ask them to explain why simpler fixes won't work.
Get the diagnosis and an itemised quote in writing, and be wary of pressure to sign on the spot for a long 'guarantee' that is only worth anything while that firm is still trading.
