About
Our mission is to solve the root cause(s) of damp and recommend long-term fixes with practical, evidence-led solutions — avoiding unnecessary and damaging treatments such as so-called "rising damp" treatments.
We built damp.ai, a free tool that diagnoses damp from symptoms, suggesting simple fixes, YouTube explainers, and monitoring tips.
If damp.ai doesn’t solve your problem, you can book an independent survey (£500 for a video damp survey, +£250 for a written PDF report) at https://DampSurveys.com/book. We accept online bookings only. We carry out around 20 surveys per month, with lead times of 3–8 weeks (last-minute slots may be available).
Our independence is your advantage. Unlike much of the industry — as highlighted by Which?: https://which.co.uk/news/2011/12/damp-proofing-companies-exposed-in-which-investigation-274087 — the damp-proofing industry is plagued by conflicts of interest and misleading advice.

Simon was so prompt to help speed up our buying process, he shared his findings with me a simplistic and supportive manner and was a true professional. Jane was also brilliant in the booking process. Thank you both for your efforts. I would truly recommend Damp Surveys to anyone considering them.

We asked Simon for a survey having had one from Kenwood as a requirement of our mortgage lender. Our intention was simply to obtain a second opinion in case there was a retention on our mortgage offer. Simon's report was both detailed and informative and while we did not have a retention on the mortgage, we have now received some very useful and cost effective advice regarding damp in the property andwe feel confident that once we move in the major issues will be solved. We highly recommend Simon.

Simon was very professional, arrived on time and conducted a thorough survey answering any questions we had. He clearly identified the problem which was contrary to our buyers damp proof company’s review. We had a comprehensive report with full detail and costing for remedial work required.

Thorough and reassuring survey of our flat

Simon from Damp Surveys did a survey on our lower-ground floor flat, in a 100-year old terrace. His survey was thorough and detailed, and reassuringly he said there was only minor damp caused by condensation. He also suggested remedial actions, with an estimated cost for the works involved. This was all very useful - it was reassuring that the condition of the flat was not bad, and it was also reassuring that remedial works could be done quite cheaply. He also offered to speak to our prospective buyers, and they were reassured after a conversation with him. So I recommend Damp Surveys - if you have any kind of problem with damp, this survey will be money well-spent.

Following a mortgage valuation report on a property I was looking to purchase I had to engage the services of a professional damp expert for a more detailed survey. Simon was recommended to me and he did not disappoint. As an independent surveyor you have the comfort of knowing he is not going to look for unnecessary work to increase his revenue. It is a fixed fee and an objective service - exactly what I needed. He took the time and care to not only explain to me what he was going to do during the survey but also afterwards kept in regular contact and produced a very professional report with his findings, recommendations and further explanations. For anyone needing expert, independent advice on any damp-related issues I would definitely recommend Simon for the job!

Reassuring Expertise with Sound Advice

I had been concerned for some time about the presence of mold at floor level and apparent damp patches on the ceiling suggesting either leaking roof or penetrating damp. The survey was thorough and accompanied by full explanation of the findings and origins of the problems. Various solutions presented varying from simply opening windows to installing electric fans in previously unknown cavities within the building and various ways of monitoring the situation. Reassuring and competent.

In this day and age is it is truly rare to receive such good service.
