    Damp proofing in three rooms

    Posted 03 April

    Colin and Vinnie did a great job, kept me updated, cleaned up after themselves. Even when they had to come back to do some touch ups, nothing was too much trouble. Very happy with the result!

    Damp in extension/former conservatory

    Posted 17 March

    Colin was prompt and did an excellent job, what surprised me more was how tidy he left the job. I have used him before and have recommended him for damp proofing and plastering. Brilliant tradesman and very highly qualified, worth every penny. He explained why it happens and how to help prevent damp and also when i can decorate after the job.

    Damp survey

    Posted 19 September 2024

    Arrived promptly - gave a helpful assessment of the situation and suggestions about how to proceed, with a reasonable quote for work. I did not pursue this initially as I have decided to attend to outside work contributing to the damp issue initially. I would definitely consider using I Want Damp Proofing in the future.
