TIMBER & DAMP INDEPENDENT SURVEYS

Comprehensive surveys, actionable solutions for a healthy property.

Welcome to Timber & Damp Independent Surveys

At TDG Timber and Damp Surveys, we are independent surveyors with no affiliation to product or repair companies. This ensures our recommendations are unbiased and prioritise your needs.

We offer comprehensive surveys to identify current and potential damp issues, providing actionable solutions for a healthy property.

Our Expertise:

  • Water ingress/penetrating damp

  • Rising damp

  • Condensation

  • Wet and dry rot

  • Woodworm

  • "During a renovation, a builder discovered damp patches on newly plastered walls. We identified historic water ingress as the cause and recommended installing a membrane and plastering system in certain areas to prevent further salt contamination and preserve the decoration. "

    – BUILDER CLIENT

  • "For a property with persistent mould issues, we recommended improving ventilation with a bathroom extractor fan and applying thermal dry paint to external walls before finishing with mould-inhibiting emulsion. This solution eliminated the condensation issue, making the tenant's home mould-free."

    – LETTING AGENT

  • "John contacted us about water ingress from faulty rainwater goods, resulting in rotten joist ends and penetrating damp in adjacent walls. We provided a remedial plan, prioritizing the external repairs to prevent further damage. John now has peace of mind, knowing the source of the problem is addressed and remedial works are underway."
