Highlights
"Daniel did a fantastic job on my porch. The work was finished to a very high standard and Daniel made sure to inform me of all the work he was carrying out as he did it, I would highly recommend."
"I really am pleased with the service DB Damp Proofing and Building Services have provided, even from initially making contact. Following that, Dan was able to see me within a matter of days to provide a quote and I couldn’t be happier with the results, or how I was treated throughout the process. I was kept up to date the whole way and received all correspondence without any delay. Overall there’s not a single thing I could fault, and I will certainly be recommending them to anyone in need and using them again myself in future."

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.
