    Rising damp and dry rot treatment in a period property

    Posted 04 July

    I can’t recommend Nick and Mark highly enough. I had four different surveyors come to assess the rising damp and dry rot in my home, and from the moment I met them, their knowledge, honesty, and professionalism stood out. I instantly felt I could trust them, and that never changed. They explained the entire process clearly, kept me informed at every stage, and carried out the work within a great time frame. The quality of their work was outstanding, and their pricing was really reasonable too. They were reliable, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond. Thank you so much!

    Survey of damp wall

    Posted 07 June

    Mark came to our property to advise on a damp wall, and he was incredibly helpful, clear and generous with his time. His advice was clear and has proven to be bang on - he didn't try any hard sales techniques and felt honest and transparent Highly recommended, thank you Mark!

    We had mark and he’s team come and quote for a damp issue we had for years.

    Posted 13 March

    He quickly arrived and provided us with a great priced quote, we had the work carried out and we were expecting a lot of mess, none ! They covered everything up and hoovered up daily. Can’t recommend southern specialist treatment more.

    Correcting a water ingress issue

    Posted 06 March

    Contacted Mark regarding a problem with water ingress on the ground floor of a property I own. He came back quickly and we arranged a mutually agreeable date to visit the property a few days later. He arrived bang on time and quickly came up with a possible solution which involved fitting an outside drain and tanking the inside of the building in a localised area. A fair quote arrived within a day which I accepted and the work was carried out the following week over two days. The standard of Mark's work was excellent as was his timekeeping and tidiness. Happy to recommend this company.

Here at Southern Specialist Treatments, we are family run and owned. This helps us keep a close relationship with our customers and work with them to find the most suitable damp control and timber preservation solutions.

Our approach starts with a survey undertaken by either Mark Stoner or Nicholas Stoner, this allows us to discover and identify the current problem you are experiencing. (We can also diagnose issues you are experiencing by providing us with photos).

One of the issues we commonly find are other damp and remedial companies trying to make customers problems fit their range of solutions, unfortunately this approach often results in unnecessary remedial treatments and continued problems.

We offer our customers more than just standardize damp-proofing and timber treatment, for example we like to keep buildings as they should be and we are heritage lime plastering experts, modern gypsum plasters are one of the main causes of damp in older properties.


The range of work we do.


· Rising damp

· Penetrating damp

· Type ‘C’ cavity Membrane systems

· Sump & pump (including servicing and break downs)

· Dpc injection

· Cementitious tanking

· Basement/Cellar conventions

· Wood worm

· Dry rot

· Wet rot

· Wall ties

· Condensation control

· Venting

· Air bricks

· Salt contamination

· Flow and return heat recovery unit installers.

· PIV unit installers

· Heritage lime plastering

· Heritage lime rendering

· Plastering

· Skimming

· Dry lining, insulation and soundproofing

· Insurance backed guarantees available.


Putting our customers at the center of what we do has been a corner stone and driving force helping us grow, this will allow us to diagnose and provide an estimate diagnosing the problem your property is experiencing, and we will offer advice on the most effective way to remedy the problem. This will then allow the information to be passed onto your builder for him/her to carry out any works required or if you accept our estimate then the charge will be refunded against these works. No Job to big or small.
