    From the initial survey to the completion of remedial works we found the company to be attentive, punctual and professional in their approach. The works were carried out in a timely way and everything was left clean and tidy.

    Inspection report throughout my property timber.

    Posted 23 May

    The two gentlemen were prompt and carried out the inspection with thorough professionalism. They explained what they were doing and were happy to impart their knowledge. I would recommend this company to anyone wanting reassurance and information. The report I received covered all points and I received it within two days of the survey.

    Damp proof internal / external 1800 house

    Posted 13 May

    The work was carried out as described. My property was left very tidy and was treated with respect throughout. A good explatation was given by the trades people doing the work. The finish all looks great. I will monitor as the years go by but all appears in to be fine now.

    Damp proofing Our House

    Posted 25 April

    From my first enquiry to Active Services to the finishing point, the service was prompt, polite and professional. The chaps doing the work were really good. Clean working and left the place tidy at the end of each working day. The work was completed in the planned timetable of 10 working days, to a very good finish. I would hesitate to recommend Active Services to family and friends.

    Treatment of wet rot, replacing joists, treating joists and replacing floor and woodworm treatment

    Posted 25 April

    Active Services have been a pleasure to deal with, they are very responsive and will happily talk through the problems and treatment options. They don't pressure you to have work done and will explain their treatment thoroughly. The team to do the work turned up early than expected on the day, worked hard, kept me informed and were friendly and helpful. I'd recommend them and will be using them again in the future.
