“My property had a damp/mould problem. I had a total of 3 surveyors round to see what could be causing the issue. Trevor came round listened carefully to the problems then made a thorough investigation of the property to see what could be causing the damp. He was extremely hands on with his search, he was in-fact the only surveyor out of the 3 that went into the loft space which in doing so found the main cause of the damp; which was a tree that had penetrated through the roof! Trevors report was remarkable and throughout work, his team were punctual/ extremely professional.Highly recommended!”

Highlights
“I highly recommend Trevor and GGR. They're trustworthy, hard working and reliable. We had issues with rising damp as well damp issues coming from leakages in the attic which had rotted some of the beams and insulation. Trevor and his team repaired the causes of the leaks and damp, got the beams looking like new and replaced all our insulation. They also repaired the chimney stacks that were causing the issues and did it all in less time than he originally quoted. I'll be using him and his team for any work I need in the future without a doubt ??”

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.
