    High quality damp repair

    Posted 06 January

    We had some damp proof work done at our premises in the early stages of December. Ben came to carry out the work in an efficient manner and with a high standard, Ben communicated with me all the way through the process and I was kept up to date with the progress. Would definitely recommend. Very happy with the work done!
