Honestly cannot sing Eddie’s praises higher! He’s been super helpful, from the moment of contact. Everything is very well explained and broken down - he’s truly gone out of his way to help us. Would recommend him to anyone looking for help with damp issues. Thanks again Eddie.Verified reviewerJob location: E710 Detailed damp survey for a rental property.

Eddie visited our rental property today to carry out a damp survey. He used thermal imaging and a humidity meter to show why there is damp in the house. He explained the findings very clearly and gave ideas on how to reduce the damp and condensation. He was on time to the appointment and took the time to explain everything in detail. Would highly recommend him.Verified reviewerJob location: E610 Wardrobes Damp/Condensation

Eddie was excellent from start to finish. He arrived right on time, was very professional and precise in carrying out the damp investigation, and took the time to clearly explain everything to me. We were on a tight deadline for the report, and he delivered it incredibly quickly without compromising on quality.

Hi, my name is Eddie and I've been a plasterer for over 35 years, having been taught in Ireland by my father, a master plasterer with over 50yrs experience.
I've just re-joined Checkatrade after taking time off while waiting for a hip replacement.
I am a Certified British Gypsum plasterer and spent 3 years working for them as an assessor, checking and mediating on the work standards of plasterers throughout the UK.
This is what made me realize the amount of substandard work taking place.
The amount of SCAM RISING DAMP jobs I had to mediate on was SHOCKING.
In the VAST MAJORITY of cases, no chemical Damp course injection is needed.
Unscrupulous contractors are conning people in to have a DPC injected where it isn't necessary.
If you get a "diagnosis" of rising damp, please call me, I can almost certainly guarantee you the damp is caused by something else.
We specialize on the common damp issues suffered by the downstairs flats in the WARNER ESTATE
However, if you do insist, which we do NOT generally recommend, on a new DPC being injected, we can carry this out using the Dry zone from Safeguard method.
We cover ALL aspects of dampness and damp investigations including:
- Condensation
- Mold
- Insulation solutions.
Pre purchase damp assessments with costings.
- Thermal imaging using an IR camera to pinpoint cold spots
- Endoscopic camera inspection for cavity walls and underfloor issues
- Chimney ventilation issues investigations
- Temperature analysis to pinpoint cold spots
- French drain installation
- Drone roof/chimney/flashing inspection
- Damp meshed membrane systems installed
- Ventilation investigations
FREE ESTIMATES AND ADVICE ON PENETRATING (RISING) DAMP
We also carry out independent condensation and Mold assessments for householders, landlords or tenants.
To reduce your costs, we are happy to let the customer do any prep, or reinstatement works themselves e.g. removing damp plaster or refitting skirting boards where necessary, decorating etc.
I'm semi-retired now so happy to give advice over the phone where necessary, so please feel free to call.
I'm free to take calls between 8am till 8pm, Monday to Friday and between 10am till 6pm on Saturday and Sunday.
Call me, I don't bite.
Thanks
Eddie
