Timberwise (UK) Limited

From start to finish I have found all the Timberwise staff to be most helpful and efficient. They were always on time and I was most impressed with the way the technician, Ian Harding, carried out the woodworm treatment. He was pleasant and everywhere was left neat. The first contact is made to the work being completed was beyond my expectations. The office staff were also most helpful and the paperwork, which I received was very helpful. I would certainly recommend Timberwise to anyone needing woodworm treated for the way they deal with customers and their whole customer-focused approach.

After having spent the last two years with a house occupied by workmen painting and plastering we had the unfortunate experience of finding penetrative damp damaging the newly plastered walls. The news was that we had to have the walls taken back to the brick once again, injected and re plastered not something we were keen to envisage. From meeting with the surveyor, arranging timescales with the office and then having the work carried out, there cannot be a more professional, energetic, polite, caring and clean team employed by any of their competitors in the UK. What we were dreading didn't come to fruition. The team were most amenable and a pleasure to have in our home leaving no mess, and ensuring that our fears were unfounded. We would use Timberwise again and have no problem recommending them to others. Fantastic team!

Moved into our new home last October with what seemed very little to do...June this year almost put my foot through the flooring in a bedroom. Carpet was lifted to find evidence of infestation. Searched the market and contacted Timberwise (UK) Ltd based on their existing customer reviews. A very educational phone all revealed what our bedroom was infested with and a suitable treatment progress was presented. A survey appointment was booked and on time the surveyor knocked on the door. He carefully explained what could be seen, what needed to be done and how long the whole process was to take. The surveyors knowledge was in depth and appeared to have great experience in infestations and the treatment required. Within a week and a half we received a quote which we were happy with, especially the guarantee, which I phoned up to find out the details of the guarantee (thinking it would be very limited) I was pleasantly surprised to hear that a full 20 years guarantee is applied to all treatment and work carried out. After accepting the quote and booking a 'treatment slot' we only had a few weeks to wait until the engineer knocked on our door at the time specified. Very friendly staff (surveyor and engineer) both new their job inside out and made my wife feel comfortable whilst they carried out the work. Great job done. Great service with a friendly nature. Thankyou.

I contacted Timberwise back in March 2017, Craig came out, inspected the property and created a great report. It took until October before I was ready for work to begin, I contacted the team arranged a date and they were so helpful! I realised I may have had damp in another room - they happily obliged to check that room as well whilst carrying out the DPC on the original room. Phone calls at each stage to provide updates, Carl & Craig couldn't do enough to help. Highly recommend.

Today I had the pleasure of being visited by Robert Matthews (Bob), what a professional gentleman, instantly recognised the issue where others failed to! Has left me feeling hopeful that the work is going to be carried out to a high standard. Would whole heartedly recommend this company and once again a special thank you to Bob who was earlier than expected, fast, professional and an all round decent surveyor.

Great experience from start to finish. We had a one and a half day woodworm treatment by Mark from the Sherborne branch, and the service was professional, on-time, polite and very tidy. We hardly knew he was here!

We have had some rising damp in the basement of our Victorian house. Timberwise was referred to us by an experienced Chartered Surveyor that we know, and we were really happy we followed his recommendation. The team was very professional, friendly, polite and tidy from the survey through to installation of DPC. Finishing with the plastering was excellent and was truly an art of work! Also, very good communication from the office staff. Great job, and well done! We would highly recommend.

Had a woodworm issue which was surveyed by a (very helpful and courteous) David Laughton. The work was later carried out efficiently and without fuss by Adrian. Can recommend Timberwise wholeheartedly.

Timberwise from start to finish were excellent. This is a professional company with customer service at its heart. We had an issue with damp in our house. Timberwise sent out one of their own surveyors to review the situation. The surveyor explained what the issue was, and a full survey report was received within a week. There was no obligation to proceed with the remedial work and no 'hard sell'. After reading previous reviews we already had confidence in Timeberwise and took the decision to proceed with the work. The work was carried out on the date it was arranged and was to high standard. All mess was cleaned up. It can be a minefield when trying to arrange works such as damp issues, but Timberwise took all the stress away. I would highly recommend Timberwise.

We had a very good experience with Timberwise. The surveyor Ian was able to fit us in for a survey quickly and was very responsive to emails and organising a date for our work. We had Dave complete the work in our property, he was friendly, efficient and polite. Dave was respectful of us working from home and around our two cats. Dave protected our floors and carpets well and finished the work to a high quality. When we received our invoice, the costing were true to the original quote. I would recommend Timberwise to a friend

Work carried out was "Tanking" of semi basement The work was carried out to budget and completed on time. Our technician, Dave, was on time every day. His work was to a high standard and he cleaned up thoroughly when the job was finished.

I had previously used another damp company, who were OK, but the finish on the plastering etc. was not great. Mark from Timberwise did a really great job. He was punctual and polite when coming to the house, and left the work area very clean and tidy. Most importantly the finish of the work was at a really high standard. I would definitely use them again if I needed any damp work done.

Mark initially provided sound advice from the Basement, Pump and Sump Company. Some companies were not reputable! The job turned out to be more complex and time consuming requiring six hours extra labour from two people which was not charged. Mark and Nick are incredibly hardworking, explaining tasks and totally trustworthy. Timberwise thankfully managed to fit new flooring and joists at less than a week's notice so the kitchen can be fitted tomorrow. James in the office very helpful. I just wish every tradesman/company was this good. Quality of work was superb. The pump was initially noisy but Nick fixed this.

After the survey of the house I was buying recommended an investigation into internal timber decay, Timberwise Bristol surveyed the whole house and recommended woodworm treatment for the ground floor. They arranged the survey with the previous owners and delivered their report promptly. Once I had moved in, they were able to do the treatment on the day after, with the surveyor Tim visiting again as well, to look at an additional area of concern that I had not flagged in the original request. Both Mat and Tim were very helpful and accommodating, giving me useful advice and guidance - also going the extra mile helping me with woodworm in a piece of my furniture. I now have my 20-year guarantee for the floors as well as piece of mind. As well as Mat and Tim, all the office staff I dealt with were friendly and helpful. I can recommend Timberwise Bristol wholeheartedly.

We have experienced Rising damp in our old property causing visible damage to walls. We contacted Timberwise for a free survey and quote which easily led to a surveyor to our property for a free survey which was carried on the affected area but we asked for a survey on the rest of the lower floor and this was also agreed. The surveyor was both friendly and efficient. A comprehensive report followed quickly and advised remedial work. This was similar to quotes form another company. Appointments for this work to be carried out was easily made. Steven Wade was the Timberwise engineer. He wa punctual very friendly and communicative. His work was caused unexpectedly little disruption and noise and very little mess. The end result looks excellent. Six weeks for the plaster to dry and then we can paint thee wall directly which due to the quality of the plastering will be all that is needed. Overall excellent efficient and very friendly service. Thank you

Craig turned up on time (8.00am) and got to work. He completed the job cleanly and efficiently, and he was happy to answer my questions about the timber treatment.

As part of purchasing our property we had a survey undertaken that raised a number of points. Through recommendation we contacted Timberwise who under took a complete review of the structural survey and advised on what needed to be done and what was actually satisfactory and required no action. This was completed quickly and the cost estimate provided. A chemical damp proofing course was required which also required plaster work, was was to be undertaken, what was need for preparation was all clear and booking was straight forward even when we had to change the date due to completion. The chap turned up right on time every day, measured all carpets etc. were covered, undertook the work required, kept me advised and was social. At the end of the first day the area was cleaned and all left tidy and he checked that I was happy prior to leaving on the last day. I don't know how value relates to others but I was happy with the costs advised and the information provided when reviewing the quotation.

Timbercare did a very good job, giving a friendly and efficient service. A thorough survey and useful advice. Work booked in easily. We prepared the loft in advance and the job went very smoothly.

Jason, our Timberwise technician, applied woodworm treatment to the roofs of our Grade 2 listed thatched Cottage, giving great respect to the structure of the building and working with considerable care and attention. His work was very thorough and could not be faulted. Our whole experience with Timberwise from original survey to treatment has been excellent.
