    Cellar Damproofing

    Posted 4 days ago

    We used Hysen to damproof our cellar. The process was very quick, after the initial consultation we were booked in for the work to start a month later, then the damproofing took around a week to complete, exactly as had been laid out during the consultation. Hysen and all his contractors were friendly, proactive and professional and kept the space clean and tidy throughout the works.

    Damp Survey on our new home

    Posted 16 June

    The service Hysen gave us was spot on. He was quick to respond to our queries, and to arrange to attend the site. His report was thorough, with clear solutions to the diagnosis and quoted us a fair price for the work that he needed to do. We will 100% use Syla Damp Proofing for any future needs in this area. Thank you Hysen!
