    Damp patch after heavy rain
    Avoid at all costs. Used to trade under William Armstrong Damp proofing. 10 year guarantee isn’t worth the paper it’s written on. Clearly just shuts shop and opens back up under a different name. Looking at the locations of the reviews he must have to work far away from his local area where people know him. Please don’t waste your money and use a professional

    Answer from tradesperson:

    This review is malicious and entirely unfounded. We have never carried out any work for this individual. I have attempted to contact the reviewer, but the phone number provided is not in use. For any prospective customers, I would be happy to provide details of previous projects where we have returned under the terms of our guarantee to carry out remedial work. Such instances are rare, but as with any trade, occasional adjustments may be necessary and we always take pride in resolving these promptly and professionally. As specialists in our sector, we cover a wide geographical area, unlike general builders whose work is typically confined to local projects. Due to the specialist nature of damp-related work, our service area extends further to meet demand. We encourage you to review our many positive testimonials from satisfied customers and welcome any questions about our services or past projects.

    Small salts/damp patch in kitchen
    Alan treated a relatively small area of damp for us at very short notice. It was clearly evident, both at the start and throughout the process, that Alan was very knowledgeable, and he also provided video footage showing the work performed, which was very helpful. It's fair to say that you pay for expertise rather than time as the procedure did not take long at all. In terms of results only time will tell, though we received a 10 year guarantee. Happy with the work.

    Repair damp wall
    The job that AL Damp Proofing Specialists did on my very damp wall, has been absolutely brilliant !! It took just one day to complete, by drilling a succession of holes immediately into the existing Victorian damp wall render, and injecting Damp Proof into the holes. No damage was done to the wall, with the minimum of disturbance. Followed by 2 days to dry out. On the 4th and 5th day I was immediately able to re emulsion the wall , with 2 coats of emulsion. The result is a totally dried out wall !!! . I cannot thank William enough for so quickly resolving this worrying damp situation, and I thoroughly recommend AL Damp Proofing Specialist. Margaret Randall I hope AL Damp Proofing Specialist will forward me the 10 year guarantee

    Damp around the fireplace and in 2 other patches
    Excellent Service from Alan and Kerri - Highly Recommended! From start to finish, the service was outstanding. They were incredibly quick to respond and schedule the work, and the entire process was handled with impressive efficiency. A huge bonus was how clean and tidy they were throughout the job. There was no mess left behind, which I really appreciated. Alan took the time to clearly explain the problem and the solution in a way that was easy for me to understand—which is a lot, as I know very little about damp! Finally, they provided a thorough and straightforward aftercare explanation, ensuring I know exactly what to do moving forward.

    Large damp patch in the bedroom.
    We had damp on our bedroom wall and needed to find the cause and rectify the situation. Alan quickly pinpointed the cause, dealt with the vent-axia and installed a safe chemical within the wall space to repair the damage and stop any further damage. He was very conscientious and precise in his dealings throughout. Excellent communication skills and friendliness
