Finding a reputable damp proofing company felt like a bit of a shot in dark, but thankfully we chose Damp Proofing Solutions based on reviews and location. All the work from beginning to end was carried out by DPS with a high level of professionalism and because of the clear depth of expertise we are confident that our damp problem is now solved. Everyone arrived exactly as agreed; the work was explained to us in an accessible and detailed way; everything was completed on time with minimal fuss and the price was reasonable. DPS is a long standing family business which clearly prides itself on producing high quality work and providing excellent customer service. It was a pleasure to work with them.

The initial survey covered all aspects of the work that would be needed to solve the damp problem in my kitchen along with the cost for carrying out this work and all this was clearly written into an email I received the following day. The workmen arrived on time, were meticulous in covering the floor area where the work was to be carried out and also draped polythene covering over the work surfaces and appliances. Very impressive. The workmen were pleasant, made a lovely job of the plastering and cleared all the rubbish away, even offering to mop the kitchen floor! The whole job was completed on schedule and to the cost agreed. I highly recommend Damp Proof Solutions for: the skill of their craftsmen, as a company that is easy to contact if you have any queries and who delivers a first rate service from survey to completion.

I called DPS when I found damp in an upstairs bedroom; I suspect it had been developing for some time, but we hadn't noticed because no-one was using that room. They attended promptly, identified the problem and not only recommended a solution for it but also preventative measures in other rooms. They initially scheduled the work for a few weeks later, but the cancellation of another job enabled them to bring it forward to that weekend. The workers attended promptly, completed the job as agreed and left only a few bits of mess for me to clear up (which is inevitable given the nature of the work). The office staff were efficient in handling the invoicing process and supplying information on aftercare.

Adam arranged for his team to be on site first thing Monday, very prompt. Completed the internal work very efficiently, with minimal disruption and kept everything clean. They were unable to complete the external work that day due to a stock issue, but we're back first thing Wednesday morning as promised and the work was done quickly and with absolutely zero fuss. Thanks again!

Damp Proofing Work
Damp Proofing Solutions were contacted by us in December 2023 as what we had thought to be problems from a water leak turned out to be one of Rising Damp, bad news! Once we had come to terms with the fact that remedial work HAD to be done we contacted DPS having found them via Google. Their surveyor Adam came out to visit and quickly and thoroughly identified the problems we had with rising damp to the walls and that of the floor. Able to give us a quote on the day we were happy to proceed. After that visit contact was maintained with Adam who as able to answer any questions/ queries we had and soon after dates were agreed for the work to proceed. Tom, Matt and Dave undertook the work over two days and were hardworking, professional, helpful and accommodating, explaining what they were doing and advising how best to go forward after the work was completed. Overall DPS were great to work with, friendly, helpful and efficient.

Used Damp Proofing Solutions to identify and fix a problem with damp in our cellar. Initial impressions are important, and right from the first phone contact they were professional and courteous. We booked an appointment for a surveyor to visit and he turned up on time and once he had looked at the issues, took time to outline a solution and answer our questions. We had had similar quotes but how the work was explained made perfect sense. Having given DPS the green light we were given a date and an estimation of the time to be taken. Each day the guys turned up promptly at 7.30am and worked most days until at least 3.30pm. They were tidy and made very little mess even when taking sackfuls of rubbish out to the van. They kept us informed of progress and made sure we knew what was happening. Work was completed on schedule with no mess to clear up. Fantastic job completed on time and on budget with an excellent team.
