    PIV system

    Posted 6 days ago

    We had a PIV system fitted to help with condensation and mould and it’s made a real difference already. Everything was explained properly, the install was quick and tidy, and the team were great to deal with.

    Home & Dry Solutions 10 out of 10 for a perfect job.

    Posted 23 January

    We had our work done by Home & Dry Solutions. First class job done from start to finish. The lady surveyor who came to see us initially was very friendly helpful and very knowledgeable nothing was to much trouble for her. She answered all our questions and explained everything in detail. There was nothing she didn't know about the job we were having done. The engineer who came to do the job was equally as friendly and very courteous. When the job was finished he asked if everything was o.k. and if we wanted to know anything more about how the condensation fans work. He cleaned up afterwards.
