10 Rising damp treated in an understairs cupboard and in the living room.

Job location: PO4James and his team were a joy to work with. James was quick and efficient from the beginning, and so courteous. Arrived for 2 survey meetings early but so polite, did not knock on the door until the agreed hour (both were first thing in the morning). He and two of his team arrived to do the work, also early and super polite. Such tidy and clean workers. I had dust sheeted some items but they added more, and thoroughly tidied and hoovered up at the end of both days' work. I did not expect that, certainly not at the end of day 1. Waiting for the plaster to dry out before painting but looks good!10 Damp proofing

Thankfully, we came across City Damp Solutions Ltd and Ross, whose professionalism and expertise stood out from the start. Ross took the time to fully understand the specific issues we were facing and proposed a clear, effective plan to resolve them. The work he carried out was of a very high standard, and he even suggested practical ways to keeVerified reviewerJob location: PO410 Replace hallway floorboards

James and team replaced the floorboards in our hallway which had been damaged by damp. They also installed some air bricks to improve ventilation under the floor. They did an excellent job and we would be very happy to use them again and highly recommend them.Verified reviewerJob location: PO6
