  • We are an award winning expert damp and mould and radon surveyor and solution provider. We are a PCA member and hold the PCA Certified Surveyor for Dampness in Buildings (CSDB) qualification and the NICEIC Domestic Ventilation certification. ***. We charge for our expert surveys. DO NOT INVITE OR SHORTLIST US IF YOU EXPECT A FREE SURVEY. Only invite or shortlist us if you are happy to pay our survey cost £245+VAT. *** We are experts in understanding the true root cause of damp issues including condensation, black mould and wall surface damage/discolouration and accurately diagnosing structural damp and timber decay. We are also members of Radon Council and UK Radon Association and provide measurement surveys and mitigation solutions in domestic and commercial properties all over the UK including the Channel Islands. It is essential to understand the true root cause of damp issues in order to determine the right permanent treatment. Most surveyors, property managers and trade contractors misdiagnose the root cause and generally assume the problem is caused by some sort of structural defect which leads to treatments that dont work, ££££ wasted and the problem eventually returns. All too often we see treatments like brick repointing/rendering, DPC/wall injections, cleaning /replacing guttering, roof/flashing work, wall insulation linings, replastering that fail because they assume the problem is some sort of defect and have no effect on the real root cause. Furthermore, because the true root cause of damp issues stops for approx 6 months (Mar-Aug) in the UK we often see incorrect treatments that appear to work but only until the weather gets colder again later in the year. We dont do guesswork like this. Our surveys always pinpoint the true root cause which our solutions will permanently address so the problem never returns. Similarly our real-time radon measurement surveys identify concentration ranges that passive sensors cannot and our mitigation solutions are always permanently effective. In 2024 we won the H&V News Awards Building a Safer Future Award for our multiple radon mitigation design and installation work packages with Government of Jersey where we installed over 200 systems and reduced levels that were significantly above the UK Action Levels (Domestic and Commercial) to below the UK Target level.

  • Advanced testing: Using specialist tools like moisture meters, hygrometers, and thermal imaging cameras to track hidden moisture behind walls.

What to ask damp surveyors in Barking before hiring?

Before you decide which professional to hire, asking these useful questions can help you feel confident that they are the best fit for your damp investigation.

Are you an independent damp surveyor?

What qualifications do you hold?

Check if the damp surveyor in Barking holds recognised credentials, such as a CSRT (Certificated Surveyor in Remedial Treatment), which shows they have training. This helps to make sure your damp investigation is carried out to the right standard.

Can I see examples of your previous damp reports?

Ask to see a sample report so you know exactly what level of detail to expect once the damp investigation is complete. A good report should clearly outline the type of damp found, the root cause, and the treatment steps you need to take.

What equipment do you use during the survey?

Damp surveyors often use specialist tools to properly detect hidden moisture behind walls or under your floors. Ask if they use moisture meters, hygrometers, or thermal imaging cameras so you are getting a detailed review of your property.

Can you provide a clear, written quote?

Before the job begins, make sure you understand exactly what the damp surveyor in Barking is charging for. Ask for a written quote that outlines the cost of the damp investigation, the final report, and any additional fees, so you aren't caught out by any unexpected charges later.

If you know where the damp is coming from, you may be looking for someone to treat it instead. Take a look at our guide on hiring damp proofing specialists.
