Kevin and Josh arrived in the dark about 8:20 and never stopped all day until about 5:15 and left in the dark,the job was fully explained to us and all the furniture in the kitchen,back room,and front room, was covered and protected on arrival.the job went smoothly from start to finish. Good to see professionalism on show,also a mention to the lady in charge of the poulton office Margo,who couldn’t have been more helpful.Thank You

The company were very easy to deal with. A survey came and highlighted what work would be required. This was followed by a quote clearly highlighting the costs with photos indicating the exact work to be done. The work started early on the exact day the company said they would and finished exactly on time. The guys were very professional and friendly and took an obvious pride in their work. The guys knew exactly what the job was. They went through the work with us and carried out thorough prep work to protect our home. On completion, they carried out a very thorough clean. The work was carried out within the quoted price. We were very pleased with the standard of the work It would be lovely if all building companies were so easy to deal with.

Recently moved into a new house which required a damp proof course on almost all walls downstairs. Survey didn’t take long to arrange. Ben & Liam carried out all the work to the highest standard. Really nice lads who turned up on time everyday and got straight on with the job. They were able to explain exactly what they were doing throughout the process which filled me with confidence. Reliable, trustworthy and would definitely recommend, no job was too much for them.

The problem with the damp around a chimney breast has been ongoing for some time. Had someone else look at it, but no confidence they knew what they were doing. Lee from Lancashire Damp Proofing came punctually and explained the problem and solution clearly. Two young men, Liam and Ben, arrived early on the first day and immediately got to work. They were both very polite and helpful. They were joined by Kev and Josh who remained for the following two days. - again really helpful and explained things to me. They worked really hard and left the room so tidy - even putting my carpet back in place. Margo in the office was also helpful and friendly. I am really pleased with the outcome (and feel as confident as I can be at this stage that the problem has been solved). I would highly recommend this firm. Thank you so much.

We had a visit from this firm. The gentleman arrived on time , very polite and kind. He tested our walls and told us the very good news No Damp. Our problem was condensation, he told us how to remedy the problem and when we asked how much we owed him. NOTHING. In this day and age when everyone seems to rip everyone off, how nice to talk to a firm that only wants to do a good job. This firm came as a recommendation and I would definitely recommend them. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Brilliant

I was very impressed with the whole experience. Punctuality was excellent and although it was a difficult job they worked incredibly hard to get the job done on time and correctly.Each day all areas were left tidy with all refuse removed. Not only that when I asked a question to Kev the work was explained to me so I gained an understanding of the whole process and what was coming next. After completing the job the whole area was hoovered and wiped down. Wonderful!!! I couldn't be more impressed and would definitely recommend them to others and obviously would use them again myself.

Surveyor was punctual and the damp report was clear to understand. When the workmen arrived to do the work, they assessed that the damp wasn't as extensive as stated in the report. Subsequently the work was scaled back with a commensurate reduction in the bill, which was welcome but also shows the honesty of the company. The workmen were friendly, polite and efficient. Always impressive to watch a skilled plasterer do his 'thing'. After the work was completed, they left the area clean and tidy. I'm very satisfied with the standard of the work and would use this company again if required. I would highly recommend this company.

Estimation and scheduling of the bedroom wall damp-proofing work was seamless and the workmen turned up on time on the scheduled days. The work was completed within the allocated timeframe of two days and the quality of the finished product (plaster removal, brick treatment, plaster boarding and replastering) was first class. The workmen were friendly and professional and made every effort to minimise and contain debris & dust (providing floor coverings etc.) All debris was bagged up continuously throughout the process and collected for disposal on completion of the job. We were extremely happy with all outcomes.

This was always going to be a big job, but unexpected complications and discoveries as the work went along meant that the whole thing took longer than any of us had bargained for. The original brief was to strip out the wooden floors on the ground floor of a medium-sized detached house, and replace joists and boards; strip walls where damp was detected, fix membrane, plaster-board and skim; spray all floor and loft cavities; suck out old cavity wall insulation. Along the way, there were extras which were added by us (more expensive skirting boards and architraves; removal of two fire surrounds being the principal ones). Also there were many changes when problems were discovered - mainly damp extending further than had initially been thought - and which were more easily dealt with as part of the whole job than done piecemeal later on. It was completely understandable that this affected the overall timetable, but we were generally kept informed of what work would be happening and when - living 200 miles from the site had its own challenges for us. The quality of the work was excellent, especially the most visible aspect of the plastering, which ended up taking in some curved surfaces, blending them in well with the existing wall/ceiling, and the overall result was more than we could have hoped for. The workmen were cheerful and approachable, and took on the extras with good humour. And Lee (the boss) was contactable, and kept everything on an even keel.

Lancashire Dampproofing Ltd inserted dampproofing into a loft wall to prevent damp penetration and replastered after. The original contact and survey was dealt with efficiently and the survey cost was very reasonable in comparison to others. I received a speedy quote which deducted survey costs if I went ahead with the work which I did. The original date of the work had to be changed last minute due to sickness so we did have to arrange another date. The men arrived on time, were polite, efficient and amazingly clean and tidy. I expected a lot more mess. Also the first time I’ve had work people in and they politely declined a brew! They worked through and finished mid afternoon which was great. We haven’t had a big downpour yet to really test the work but happy with the 10 year guarantee to reassure.
