    Damp and Timber report

    Posted 03 August 2024

    Quoted for damp treatment which was so extortionate our mortgage company would not use the report. We then got further quotes from two PCA registered companies for ~£4000. When asking if there may have been a mix up in quotes, they refused to look into it. When we complained, they later emailed saying their quote was reasonable on a house valued at £1m (ours is actually £340k!). Avoid at all costs.

    Response from Sterling Preservation Damp & Timber Surveying

    Quotations of £4,000 cannot be like for like. Our quotation for damp-proofing circa £10,000 based on Protimeter readings and 37+ years experience. RICS surveyors recommend us with confidence we are accurate and honest.

    To supply and fit two Humidistat units.

    Posted 05 August 2023

    The gentleman who came to look at the problem explained what was causing the dampness in the house. It was not rising damp, as I had been told by two other companies, but condensation and recommended I had a Humidistat fitted in the kitchen and in the bathroom. The men who came out to do the work were very careful not to make any mess in the house and were extremely polite. Problem now solved!
