Highlights
"We recently had damp proofing and plastering work carried out and were thoroughly impressed with the service provided. The team was punctual, professional, and maintained a clean and organized work environment throughout. The damp issues were effectively resolved, and the plaster finish was smooth and of high quality. Communication was clear at every stage, and the project was completed on time and within budget. Highly recommended for reliable and expert workmanship."
"Fantastic job from the quote from George who explained exactly what was needed to the completion of the job. The lads worked really hard on both days and completed the work on time leaving the rooms tidy. I would 100% recommend FBH Trading and would use them again."

These are obviously rogue traders. They quoted to remove and treat dry rot with biocide under a suspended living room floor, repair floor joists, replace affected joists and floor boards, check the vents and remove waste. They did not treat the dry rot with Biocide or remove the dry rot. They did not unblock the vents and left most of the waste under the floor and the remainder in the garden. The repair to the floor joists was unsafe and did not even cut out the affected wood. They left the floor unsupported with new wood nailed to existing rotten joists. They insisted on cash payment.
Fantastic job from the quote from George who explained exactly what was needed to the completion of the job. The lads worked really hard on both days and completed the work on time leaving the rooms tidy. I would 100% recommend FBH Trading and would use them 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.
