Very helpful & reliable damp survey carried out. The damp proofing work was carried out excellently & all areas left in a clean & tidy state. All works came with a 10 year guarantee which i know will be honoured. I would have no reservations about recommending this company to anyone. Andy

Terry and his team did a fantastic job of installing the tanking system to our basement (approx 60 square m space) to include the sumps & battery back up alarm system. Very reassuring to know we also have the annual maintenance service from T W Read endorsing the quality of their work.

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.

Check the TrustMark register
Never pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
