Rising damp indicators
Assessing low-level wall moisture, salt deposits and damp-proof course condition where visible.
Pre-purchase damp checks
Know the moisture status before you commit.
An independent damp and moisture assessment designed to give prospective buyers a clearer picture of the property's condition before completion.
Peace of mind
Understand possible concerns before proceeding.
A standard property survey may flag damp as a concern but rarely explains it in detail. Our focused inspection goes further — assessing the type, extent and likely source of any moisture issues so you can make an informed decision.

What we look for
A focused inspection for property buyers.
Penetrating damp
Checking for moisture entering through walls, windows, roofing or failed pointing and flashing.
Condensation risk
Reviewing ventilation, insulation and conditions that may lead to recurring condensation problems.
Timing
When should you book a pre-purchase check?
Ideally before exchange, or as early in the buying process as practical. The earlier you understand the moisture conditions, the more options you have — whether that means negotiating on price, requesting remedial work, or simply confirming that concerns flagged elsewhere are not significant.
Our reports are written clearly enough to share with solicitors, mortgage valuers and building contractors if needed.
