10 Maxwell was a joy to deal with a I would recommend his services to anyone.
Posted 17 September
We recently contacted Allwood Preservation when we found a few items with woodworm in our garage. Maxwell visited us properly and gave us clear advice on what we should do to ensure it hadn’t spread any further. The work was carried out promptly and with minimum disruption.Verified reviewerJob location: CR39.67 Damp solution in Sutton

Allwood Preservation came round to provide a solution to a rising damp issue by our back door in the kitchen, we also sought two additional quotes too. Maxwell's extensive knowledge and honesty was greatly appreciated, so we accepted his quote. On the day of the works, he arrived on time and worked efficiently, with care and extremely tidily. We would thoroughly recommend him and Allwood. He went above and beyond to help us and we are grateful. Thank you.Verified reviewerJob location: SM19.67 Honest advice.

Great experience and a very honest person. Max came to assess our house for damp. Max looked outside the property, inside and asked what our concerns were. Max was honest and said that the issue was more condensation and gave us some further pointers to reduce it. His honesty was appreciated and meant no unnecessary cost for us.Verified reviewerJob location: RH610 Would highly recommend!

Max was great, checked our damp wall and told us we didn't need him to do any work but instead recommended a plasterer. So nice to have someone knowledgeable and honest that could point us in the right direction with no charge.

Max is very knowledgeable and works efficiently. His price is reasonable and he gave me practical advice on dealing with my woodworm, including suggesting bigger ventillation grilles to improve underfloor ventillation.Verified reviewerJob location: CR2

We are a small family run business and have been trading since the 80s.
I have been in construction since 1969 having served an apprenticeship in bricklaying which I gained a distinction. I worked on many prestigious projects over the years, in the city and west end of London including the Victoria and Albert museum, and many more.
I came into the remedial side of the business in the early 80s,and have been busy treating Damp and Timber problems ever since. We have resisted growing into a large firm because we like the hands on touch that only a family business can offer.
