Patrick and his team were great from the outset. Quick response to survey request, with Patrick explaining the action required and work that would be carried out, demonstrating his knowledge and experience. The guys that did the work were friendly, professional and kept us up to date with progress. Unlike many tradesmen they went to great efforts to tidy after finishing, even mopping the floors! Highly recommended!

Patrick from Prestige came out after we had continued damp issues in our rental property after having a full refurbishment. The general builder had told us he had treated the damp however the paint kept falling off and there was a tide mark in the new plaster that even after 2 years hadn't dried out. Patrick did a full free samp survey. He was clearly very knowledgeable and after having 3 quotes we chose this company. It's definitely not cheap but after our previous experience we went with Patrick as it was clear he knew what he was doing. As landlords we wanted the house to be completely safe for our tenants. Patrick squeezed us in between tenants. Turned up when they were supposed to and cleared up after the work. We had the whole room back to brick, damp proofing, tanking to two walls and heritage render on the outside. During the work any issues were discussed and quickly resolved. We quickly saw the plaster was now drying evenly and we were able to redecorate 6 weeks later. I have learned from a very costly mistake that it's better to get experts in sometimes! I would thoroughly recommend Prestige .

We needed a new damp proof course which Prestige Damp Proofing carried out so efficiently we can’t recommend them enough. They tidied up after and there was barely any dust, which as they had to take a wall back to brick is just amazing. Very polite, very informative and no question was a problem. Thank you so much.

We were very pleased with the high standard of the work carried out by this company. The staff were efficient and professional. I was expecting lots of dust and dirt but the protective measures used were extremely effective and the staff took care to clear up after completing the job. The new plaster looks very good. There was a small problem a few days after completion of the job and as soon as he was informed of this, the company director took immediate steps to have this rectified. The work is guaranteed for 20 years. I highly recommend this company.

Patrick and his team did an amazing job renewing the pebble dash on our house. They were fast, very friendly and efficient. They were very flexible with their time, even when we had an issue with our scaffolding (unrelated to Prestige Damp Proofing Solutions). They were easy to communicate with and I am very happy with their service and professional work.

We used Prestige in March 2021 to damp proof two downstairs rooms and the corridor. The company director, Patrick did the initial assessment and quote. His team were ready to start work within a week. The work was done very quickly (within 4 days) with upto 4 people working on the job at one time. The finished walls and plaster looks very good. So everything was done to a high standard as expected. However, where Prestige have really excelled was when things went a little bit wrong. We needed to remove the radiators to get to the affected plaster behind them. So Prestige have organised for a plumber to take the radiators off. Unfortunately the plumber did not cap one of the valves well and the entire radiator system drained onto the corridor floor. I emailed Patrick about this at 12 at night, he acknowledged the email straight away and brought a carpet cleaners in the morning to remediate any damage done by the leak. Fantastic service! Patrick has also showed me areas of the rooms where there was likely to be rot under the floorboards (which was not part of his scope of work). 2 months later when I started to lift the floor boards to repair them, Patrick responded to my email where I asked about the practical ways to fix up rot around the old chimney breast. I will be recommending Prestige to everyone for damp proofing and plastering work. The best tradespeople I have come across.

Patrick was excellent from the moment he came out to do our quote. He was honest about what work we needed, which was less than other companies had suggested. He sent us a detailed quote within 24 hours, which was considerably cheaper than other companies due to Patrick’s honesty, and arranged for the work to start only 2 days later. The team were fantastic, creating as little mess and disruption as possible. The re-plastering was high quality and we received our insurance backed guarantee very swiftly. The communication throughout was fantastic. Thank you for turning our dampproofing nightmare into a pleasant experience-quite a feat! We would not hesitate to recommend Prestige to others-you will be in very safe hands.

I had four large sections of external property and also driveway walls for which the render was a mess. It was a bad job completed when owned by a previous resident. It meant that I was having some early stage damp issues internally and the outside of the property looked pretty bad. I only ever hire people based on recommendations normally but no one I know has had render done recently. Went the Which? route for peace of mind and Prestige was one of five companies I had round for a quote as the reviews looked good. You never know how accurate these are until you meet Patrick. It's clear how knowledgeable these guys are, how much pride they take in their work and, equally importantly for me, how honest and straightforward they are. I wanted the people with expertise but also a company who aren't out to rip me off. I definitely had some quotes and chats with other companies that didn't make me feel comfortable at all. All I can say is that after having Patrick and his team complete their work I won't need to look for a builder again. The team put in real shifts to get the work I needed done and the results have transformed the look of the property as well as preventing the damp issues. Polite and courteous all the way through and they clean up behind themselves which kept the Mrs happy. A genuine pleasure and would highly recommend.

Patrick and his team are utter professionals: they have done an excellent job damp-proofing and plastering my house which had major rising damp issues. Personable, communicative, and reliable, Patrick has been extremely helpful along the way, and has been more than happy to send his team back to fix niggles. After a terrible experience with my last damp-proofers, I have been so impressed by the craftsmanship and integrity of Prestige Damp Proofing. When an expensive casserole dish was accidentally broken during the work, it was instantly replaced with no fuss. I can't comment on the longevity of the damp-proofing work, but my experience thus far has been great. Thank you!

I had rising damp on the wall of a bow window in my dining room. Pat and his men stripped the plaster from the wall, re plastered it, and replaced and re positioned the air bricks on the outside. Both the plastering and the brick work was completed to a high standard. By its nature this was very messy work, but they covered and sealed the carpets so well that they were completely unaffected. I also liked the fact that they washed down the back patio and driveway afterwards. I would quite happily recommend this trader.

Patrick visited and provided good advice on the treatment required for a rising damp issue. Having received a competitive quote the team carried out the required work- Plaster and render was removed, a new chemical DPC was injected and the wall re-rendered / plastered. It all looks great and there’s even a new power socket ready for use. The team were professional and polite throughout and kept mess to a minimum and tidied up well. Would use again.

Patrick completed an inspection of a wall that I was concerned had damp. He diagnosed rising damp and recommended a treatment to repair the damp course and then re render/plaster. Having looked at a number of other companies I settled with Prestige Damp Proofing Solutions as I thought the quality of the report and Patrick's professionalism were excellent. Patrick and his team arrived on time, worked hard and left everything clean and tidy. Throughout Patrick was happy to answer any questions I had and explain the detail of what he was doing. The finish of the work was excellent and I'm really happy. Hopefully that will be the end of the damp!

I had rising damp on an internal wall. I chose Patrick purely on his previous reviews. I was not disappointed. He responded quickly to my query, explained why the problem had occurred and the procedure to remedy it. His quote arrived the following day and work commenced shortly after we accepted his quote. Patrick arrived when he said he would, worked tirelessly for the day under difficult conditions (it was unbearably hot and very dusty) and made sure the mess was kept to a minimum. He remained cheerful and chatty throughout the work. His standard of work is excellent; the finished plastering is brilliant. He is a man who obviously enjoys his job and is extremely proud of his standard of work. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

We had some suspected damp on the wall in our lounge and hallway. Patrick came over and had a look and supplied us with an estimate which we approved.The work was done to a high standard and the plastering finish was superb. I would definitely reccomend Patrick and his small team for anybody else with damp problems no matter how large or small - as ours was small - but Patrick still put in the time and effort to do the job. We would use him again - although sadly I hope we never need to !!

I had damp proofing and dry and wet rot treatments. Patrick and his colleagues, removed the plaster and affected timber and door frames in my living room, part of the hallway and my kitchen. They removed the wooden kitchen floor and treated it for dry rot/wood worm. They put chemical injections in the walls and re-rendered with waterproof sand and cement. They finished it with a plaster. They installed new wall plate, joists and floorboards, installed airbricks and insulation in the kitchen floor. They removed all the rubble and waste. I highly recommend Patrick and his colleagues. Patrick has meticulous attention to detail, everything was done to an extremely high standard. Patrick's customer care is excellent, he explained everything he was about to do and what he had done throughout the works. Patrick is polite and friendly and very thorough. He also provided me with alternative solutions to problems, which were not always in his financial interests in that, some solutions cost less than the original proposed works. I was also impressed that Patrick recommended that I contact building control for some of the works as I was originally intending to replace my kitchen wooden floor with a solid concrete floor. I contacted building control and made an application for a building notice, building control visited and checked Patrick's work and as I thought there were no major issues. None of the other companies that I had interviewed to carry out the works, all of whom were Which Trusted Traders, mentioned the need to contact building control. During the removal of affected plaster, it was revealed that there was a rotten timber beam Patrick recommended that I contact building control because he suspected that it was a supporting the floor above and would therefore need to be replaced with a steel. This was not in Patrick's interests as he was not contracted to carry out such work. Building Control confirmed that the wooden beam needed to be replaced with a steel. I therefore contacted another company to do the work and Patrick. In summary Patrick and his colleagues of Prestige Damp Proofing Solutions conduct themselves and carry out their work to the highest possible standards. They are courteous and friendly and clean up after themselves. I have no hesitation in recommending Prestige Damp Proofing Solutions to anyone needing such work to be done.

2 small areas of damp, 1 penetrating and 1 rising were treated. Patrick was very pleasant and easy to deal with, he kept to promised timetables and turned up when he said he would. The only time he was delayed he texted me beforehand to apologise that he was running slightly late. He provided prompt written confirmation of his verbal estimate. He and his staff took pains to cover furniture and floors etc in the rooms where treatment took place and cleared up thoroughly after they had finished the work. The plaster finish looks excellent, smooth and level. Based on my experience I wouldn?t have any hesitation in using Patrick again and would happily recommend him for damp proofing work.
