    Excellent service by Joe

    Posted 1 week ago

    We had a damp survey carried out by Joe and it was excellent. Very detailed and highlighted the issues that we needed. We then got a really good quote and Joe carried out the works for us in March this year to a very high standard and we’re really pleased. Joe has just completed some outdoor timber work as well which is to the highest standard. I would highly recommend Joe he is fast efficient cost-effective and a really nice guy!

    Damp work and plastering

    Posted 11 June

    We have used Joe before for damp proofing in our living room and got him back out to have a look at an issue in our bedroom and porch. He diagnosed the problem and gave us a good option to solve it. He managed to get us in within a few weeks and the work was done over 2 days. Happy with the work done and also the resonable price. He turned up promptly each day and cleaned up as he went. Would recommend and use again

    Highly recommended

    Posted 19 February

    Jo has helped me with a number of properties that I manage. He has given good advice and carried out a range of work including installing ventilation, treating rising damp and replacing areas of flooring. I have found his pricing very reasonable and his workmanship professional and to a high standard. Highly recommended

Welcome to Mothline Preservation Ltd.


At Mothline Preservation Ltd, we specialise in all aspects of plastering, damp proofing, cavity wall insulation removal, structural repairs, and CCTV drain surveys across the South Coast.


We have built our reputation through hard work, attention to detail, and word-of-mouth, and we're committed to the high standards our customers expect.


Our services cover all forms of damp proofing, including the installation of new damp proof courses, condensation and mould control, penetrating damp investigations, timber treatments, and specialist damp surveys for residential and commercial properties. We also provide professional CCTV drain surveys to help identify hidden drainage defects that may be contributing to damp and structural issues within a property.


With specialist equipment and years of hands-on experience, we diagnose the root cause of defects rather than just treating the symptoms. Whether it’s a small repair or a larger preservation project, we are committed to delivering honest advice, high-quality workmanship, and long-lasting solutions.


Please take a look through our gallery to see examples of the work we have carried out. We offer free, no-obligation quotations and are always happy to discuss your requirements.


We proudly cover Southampton, Hampshire, and the wider South Coast area.


Thank you for taking the time to view our profile — we look forward to hearing from you soon.
