Review left on 26 Aug 2025Rating: 1 out of 5Damp specialist(Updated on 31 Aug 2025)Lets start with the pro's- Very easy to get hold of. First consultation was a video call, Problem pin pointed to be damp, visit to property to treat using rod system. This was all carried out promptly, chatty friendly and clean worker. On to the cons The issue proceeded to continue for 6 weeks after the job was carried out. I had sent several messages back and forth with A.L damp to be told area needs ventilation which meant I couldnt use the area. (Under stairs cupboard) Due to water! The product didn't work within the stud wall. As water persisted for 5 weeks. I asked the company to come back, it's a sole trader and no one can come in place Except his partner who isn't qualified. Highly unprofessional, I have never been spoken to in such a manner! I put 2 xx on a text which indicated inappropriate conduct according to them!Answer from tradesperson:
We would like to address a series of negative reviews posted on 26th, 27th, and 28th August, all from the same individual. While we welcome constructive feedback, these repeated and increasingly personal comments appear to be driven by factors beyond the scope of the original service provided and driven by rejection of a male member of staff towards to the customer. We take all complaints seriously and have previously resolved the matter in question, with confirmation that the issue had been addressed. We have also requested updated meter readings to confirm this, but these have not been provided. At A.L damp proofing we are proud of the many positive reviews from satisfied clients and of our commitment to professionalism and integrity. We encourage all prospective customers to consider the full context and our track record when reviewing our services. We are now seeking legal advice for harassment from this individual Sincerely, Kerri A.L Damp Proofing

Review left on 26 Aug 2025Rating: 5 out of 5Damp areas - Victorian fireplaceWe received outstanding service from start to finish. I received a call back within 30 minutes of making my initial inquiry. 5 minutes later, I had a video consultation with Alan, who looked over our fireplace and identified the problem. On the day of the work, Alan arrived promptly and was professional at all times. Alan's work is neat, and he explained each step to me, alongside a video record. I have been so impressed by the communication we have received, as well as the advice for after care. Many thanks!Review from MyBuilder user from Thornton Heath MyBuilder user from Thornton Heath
Review left on 24 Aug 2025Rating: 5 out of 5Rising Damp Treatment & Damp Proofing RequiredThe whole process from start to finish was professional and efficient. Alan did a video consultation which was a great use of everyone’s time. The communication was clear and transparent. The work is videoed and comes with a 10 year guarantee. Alan obviously has a lot of knowledge. The cost was reasonable too. I would definitely use them again for any damp needs and recommend them to others. You’re in good hands here!Review from Moira, Porthcawl Moira, Porthcawl
Review left on 8 Aug 2025Rating: 5 out of 5DampWe had a problem with damp on a wall in our lounge.Alan identified the problem with a video call which I was a bit skeptical about initially. Great communication with Alan before he came to my property at the agrred date and timea.He completed the job within an hour and I was impressed with his method.Throughout the process he was explaining whilst making a video which I watched after.We will be going ahead with the decoration of the lounge confident that the problem has been sorted A reasonable price for the job which comes with a 10 year guarantee. I would recommend Alan to anyone with damp problems.Thankyou
