    Damproofing

    Posted 5 days ago

    Jake and Jim were amazing and they were a very fair priced. They were very trustworthy individuals, who throughout the job they were very clean and tidy. The work was finished within a timely manor and we are so pleased with the results. They are very knowledgable in what they do and we would highly recommend using them to anyone who requires damp-roofing.

    5 star family company

    Posted 26 January

    Jim and Jake were fanatic from start to finish sorting out the damp in our house. We had 2 rooms which needed sorting and they went the extra mile to make sure that they did everything possible to prevent the issue coming back. The initial quote was really informative, providing drawings and an itemised quote describing exactly what would be done. We found that they really took pride in their work, making sure that everything they did was done properly. They also spent the end of each day cleaning up after themselves which was really appreciated. Couldn’t recommend more

    Mould Removal and eradication

    Posted 03 December 2025

    Jake and his Grandad are really easy to get along with, professional and knowledgeable. They explained why and what they were doing to eradicate black mould. It's too soon to know if it worked but I'd have no problem recommending them for this kind of work.

    Diagnosing and treating damp, replastering bathroom

    Posted 13 September 2025

    Jake was really thorough at checking the areas I was concerned about. Jake and Jim both kept in contact with me throughout the job and did an amazing job, asked my opinion on removing/keeping things in the room and treated all the problem areas cleaned up afterwards and the plastering they did was fantastic, I definitely plan to use them again if I need any more plastering work, both really lovely guys and great tradesmen
