Why choose an independent damp surveyor?

A lot of people have been asking recently what's wrong with a free survey? What's so important about independent damp surveyors?

The answer to this is simple, when dealing with a business why would they offer a free survey? The obvious answer is that they make their money back in the remediation. If this is the case how can you be sure you're being offered a suggestion that will work?

With independent damp surveys like a Damp Detective survey, you can be sure that any solution we offer will genuinely solve the problem at the source. Our surveys are effective because we don't just solve the visual problems like mould or damp, we explain where the source of the problem is and how best to solve the problem.

In some cases it may be due to damp elsewhere in the house because mould only requires a small amount of moisture. In other cases, it may be that the source may be external but in most cases there's no quick easy way to say this is the problem. For example, it's very easy to point to mould on the wall and say your problem is that you have mould but in reality it's the source of moisture that allows the mould to grow that is the problem and the mould is just a visual result.

The reason our surveys are so effective is a mixture of experience with top of the range surveying equipment mixed with a thorough investigation of every room. This makes sure that every possible cause is identified in our reports.

At the end of the survey, after any recommended action has been taken you can be confident that your home will be mould and damp free. If you would like any more information or to discuss how our surveys can help you please do contact us.
