    Damp treatment works to terrace house

    Posted 13 June

    Don did the initial inspection report, followed by Kevin hacking off the plaster and applying the damp treatment, and Gary doing the re-plastering. All in all, a very good experience from people that really knew their stuff. All were professional and efficient throughout and it was reassuring to deal with trustworthy and reliable tradespeople. It was also a very reasonable price and everything was left clean and tidy. Very happy to recommend them to others and I would happily use them again.

    Kitchen floor damp investigation

    Posted 08 May

    We needed an investigation completed on the kitchen floor of a propety we are currently purchasing, after coming across the Don Hobbs website we knew we had found the people for the job. After an initial email, everything was organised to be carried out at 9:30am the next day, at 3pm that day we received an extremely detailed 13 page report with hand drawn diagrams, taken images, recomendations and a very reasonable quote. We could not be happier and it has really put our minds at rest, thank you again, 10/10 experience!

    Damp diagnosis

    Posted 01 April

    Don did some damp proofing work a couple of years ago and was excellent in diagnosing the issue and carrying out the works. He also popped by today and diagnosed a separate issue, which has been a massive help. Would highly recommend.

    Review moisture levels & wood infestation

    Posted 24 February

    Don provided a thorough inspection for a house we are purchasing. He explained what he was looking for, what he found and took the time to give advice and recommendations. His full report, giving the findings and providing recommendations was sent to me the same day. I have no hesitation in recommending this company.
