Damp proofing my living room.
I was really stressed at discovering the signs of damp in my living room. I'd had another company out to assess things and it took them about 10 days before they came out. They said they'd give me a quote though they never got back to me. I looked online and found Trustguard and I contacted them and spoke to Stacie who was really helpful and friendly, and arranged for Don to come out the following day. He is very knowledgeable and assessed the situation and also explained the reasons why this was happening, the age of the house etc. He was able to give me an instant quote. The work was done in stages, which was better for me, and everything was carried out as quoted, efficiently. I would highly recommend Don and the team - and wouldn't hesitate to use Trustguard again.

Woodworm Assessment - Superb Service
I contacted TrustGuard looking to have some timbers in my house previously affected by woodworm assessed. Trustguard were really responsive when approached and readily gave advice and a quote about the level of service we needed to fulfil our aims. Trustguard were understanding of our timescales to have the assessment completed and had no difficulty in accommodating this for us. On the day of the visit, the technician arrived on time (and even gave us a call to let us know he was on his way prior!). Don was friendly, knowledgeable and thorough in his assessment whilst at the property. Helpful verbal feedback was provided followed promptly by an email summary of his assessment which we had requested to support the sale of the house. Don understood that getting this back to us on time was really important and required no chasing and everything was done as promised. This level is service and after care is one that other traders should be aspiring to reach. Very pleased with our experience using Trustguard and would recommend them confidently to others.

Excellent service at a reasonable price
Carried out a PIV service and filter change in a couple of flats. Have used previously for the install of these systems and they were great then too. A great company to deal with and very organised and efficient. Very knowledgable in what they do and great at identifying and confirming the reason and cause of any damp related issues. Would not hesitate to use again and would highly recommend their services.

Woodworm Treatment
I got in touch with Trustguard last year to treat the whole house for Woodworm. Don came out, inspected and gave the date and time and price. The price was a lot more reasonable than other quotes we had received. He came out and was very flexible with our arrangements. The site wasn't clear so they allowed us to treat one room, move the furniture and come back and do the rest. I suffered some health problems in between so I had to postpone the second part. Stacey and Don were very accommodating about the situation and very understanding and patient. They came back and completed the job. All work carried out professionally and to a high standard

Great communication from Don and the team throughout the lead up to work being completed.

The team arrived promptly each day of work, were thoroughly professional throughout and kept me informed of all the work they were carrying out at all stages.

Some damp was discovered when having building work done. Having been let down by the first person we saw, I contacted Trustguard having remembered they'd done some work for us when we bought the house 10 years ago. Stacey in the office was incredibly friendly and accommodating, understanding our predicament (room needing decorating before carpets could go down all the while with growing pressure from wife and kids to get the xmas decs up on 1st December!) and arranged for Don to come out. Don is knowledgeable, friendly and gave a great quote on the spot. He and Jay then turned up on time and constantly cleaned as they went tot he point that I didn't even see a speck of dust which was incredible given the work being done.

TrustGuard Damp Proofing
I found TrustGuard Damp Specialists from Which magazine Trusted Traders, as I was looking for a recommended company due to a negative experience with another Damp Proofing company. Don came to my flat when he said he would and identified the rising damp patches and gave me a competitive quote straight away. Don also advised me about incorrect information given to me by the other damp proof firm, plus he told me how to improve the ventilation in the flat. When I formally accepted the quote we agreed a date when the work would be completed. On the day Don rang me to tell me when they'd be at my flat. The work was completed on time and Don gave me advice on when I could paint the plaster. Wayne, Don's plasterer also advised me about the painting process. I received an invoice via email which contained payment details. I have recommended TrustGuard to friends because they gave a fair quote, with no attempt to rip me off or give incorrect advice. They turned up when they said they would, and did a good job and the aftercare was in place as Stacey rang me afterwards to ensure that everything was OK.

Damp work
We had quite a bit of damp remedied . We prepared well covering everywhere with builders polythene as we hadn’t long since had new carpets laid and didn’t want to take them up. We asked the guys to be as careful as they could although we understood it was a dirty job removing plaster from the walls and re plastering. The two guys Don and his pal did a fantastic job and worked as cleanly as they could even getting the Henry hoover out to clean round the edges of the polythene . They arrived at the time they said they would and worked solid completing a job that they said could take 4 days in 2 . The cost came in as quoted and to be honest they did more work than they had quoted for so we were very impressed with that. We would highly recommend and we ourselves would use again if we needed to .

Damp proofing
I had a problem with damp and looked online for somebody local who could come out and confirm the problem and hopefully rectify it. After reading the reviews for Trustguard I rang Don who came out and explained the problem and how it could be fixed. I was able to arrange the work to be carried out when the weather got a bit warmer and around my work which was appreciated. I am very pleased with the work which was carried out professionally and to a very high standard by Don and his team. I wasn't looking forward to cleaning up afterward to be honest but I needn’t have worried they left the property as it was, clean and tidy. Communication was great and I was kept informed of the progress by Don while the work was being carried out. I would certainly recommend Trustguard if you have damp problems and want a job well done at a reasonable cost.

Another great job
This is the second time we have used Trustguard. They installed a damp course for us in January & this time repaired a sprung floor caused by damp rot in our entryway. Don Cellini carried out the work. He was, as always, friendly, helpful, polite, & generous with his time. He explained what had caused the problem, what he would do to remedy it, & before he nailed the floor back into place, showed us what he had done. Afterwards, he removed the old materials leaving us with no clean up & a floor that acts like a floor not a trampoline. As people with little DIY experience & little knowledge of the mysteries of house construction, maintenance & repair, it is very re-assuring & helpful to have someone explain things step by step. The job was completed for a very fair price that matched his quote to the penny. There were no hidden or unexpected costs. Once again, we are delighted with the job Don Cellini carried out. We highly recommend Trustguard & we will be using them for a third job later in the year.

PIV install
Trustguard quickly diagnosed the cause of my mould problems and recommended the solution of a PIV in my loft, without adding on expensive extras that other companies had recommended. I was impressed by the no frills approach, there was no hard sell of their products & services, just a simple suggested solution, followed by a prompt install. There was an initial delay in communications when trying to contact Don for a quote, but I suspect they are in high demand and once we were in touch, things progressed quickly and smoothly. Don was patient with my numerous questions due to my unfamiliarity with the PIV system, and I'm confident that I made the right decision in choosing Trustguard.

I called TrustGuard as my joiner thought I might have rising damp. Don completed a thorough inspection questioned how often I opened windows, almost never, and ascertained that the problem was condensation, not rising damp. He advised on the correct course of action, the installation of a PIV unit and within a couple of days John came to fit the unit, followed by Steve who connected the unit. Everything was left clean and tidy and the whole operation from start to finish was carried out in the most professional manner. I chose TrustGuard from a search engine as it had the Which accreditation and it is the best thing I could have done. A truly impressive operation.

Trustguard fitted a ventilation system in Feb for me. As my previous review states, I was delighted with the service I received. However the measure of a great company is the service they provide after they have your money! This company is everything you want. I rang Don to say the system wasn't working. He arranged to come out a couple of days later, checked the system and found we had accidentally switched it off!! Oops!

Don resolved long standing damp problems in kitchen, sitting room and dining room. Kitchen was particularly bad and other traders had failed to resolve the problem over a number of years. From initial contact to get an estimate through to post job snagging everything was done promptly and efficiently and disruption kept to a minimum. Also everything was explained very clearly. I am really pleased with the work and have no hesitation in recommending to others.

Wall ties
We required wall ties on our end terraced property and had various promises of quotes from other companies who either didn't turn up or just did a drive by with a follow up phone call. Don was prompt professional and honest and the lads on the job were polite and hardworking and stayed on the job until it was done , would use this company again!

Excellent work, done as planned
Don recently did a DPC for a chimney breast in a house I rent to professionals. He agreed to do it between Christmas and New Year, which suited the tenants as they were away. He did the job exactly as planned and very professionally. Don has also done two house refubs for me, so it was no surprise that he did this small job well. My only hesitation in recommending him is that I don't want him to be so busy that he can't do the next job for me!!

Professional service, good advice, value for money
I would not hesitate to recommend TrustGuard! TrustGuard recently carried out and inspection and some damp proofing at my two bed ground floor flat. I asked for someone to come out urgently and on a certain day. Don was able to come out at this time and did a very thorough inspection of my whole flat, using the latest technology and taking the time to explain all aspects of the problem to me and the options for repair. Don did not recommend any unnecessary work, and in fact tried to talk me into trying a few "self help" remedies in respect of condensation before going to the expense of installing a PIV unit. I took on board Don's advice and decided to deal with some penetrating damp first and review the condensation problem over time. Don was then to complete the job within a week of coming to the property to give me a quote, at a time and day suitable for me. His time estimate (that the job would take only one day) was accurate. TrustGuard charged a reasonable price comparable with other businesses and I felt I got good value for money for the work. The quality of the work was completed to a very high standard. Considering the dust involved in removing plaster Don covered all of my furnishings and left my flat in a very neat and tidy state. All rubbish was taken away - something not every tradesman does these days! Overall I am very impressed with TrustGuard and I will definitely be using them again on other jobs I need doing.

friendly, professional and competative
Don was one of several companies we had out to look at a damp problem we had. He did the most thorough inspection of the traders who came and explained what was wrong, why he came to that conclusion and what needed done. He was friendly, professional and his price was very competative. The work was completed within the time scale he gave and he made sure we were happy with everything before he left. Would definitely use this company again and recommend to others too.

Damp proofing work
They did an exceptional job and we are very pleased with what Don has done. It was done on the day and we've had no issues since.

I'd definitely use him again
Don damp poofed a party wall with a membrane and plastered over it, also adding some fittings. I am happy with his work, his response and the quote provided.It's been a long standing problem, which others have tried and failed with. He finished on time and I would definitely use him again
