Damp Proofing Solutions - Birmingham & Coventry is described by reviewers as professional and knowledgeable, with several saying the surveyor explained the damp problems and the work in a clear and reassuring way. Reviewers report thorough surveys and work finished to a high standard, including air bricks and basement wall work in one older property. A recurring point is that staff kept properties tidy, covered things up and cleaned up after themselves. One reviewer said the company was not the cheapest but felt the work was worth it. One reviewer also highlighted a surveyor's quick replies and a visit late on a Sunday evening.
Damp Proofing Solutions have treated my entire house for rising damp, and I honestly wouldn't choose another company. To the best of my knowledge, they operate to the highest standards when it comes to damp surveys, damp proofing and reporting. They are not the cheapest, but when it comes to damp issues in your home, particularly rising damp, I firmly believe that choosing the cheapest quote can be a false economy. Rising damp is a serious problem that needs to be properly investigated and treated at its source. For the sake of your property and your peace of mind, I would absolutely recommend investing in a company you can trust. Sam, the surveyor I have worked with this year, has been absolutely amazing. She carries out thorough surveys, takes the time to identify the underlying cause of the problem and recommends the right solutions to ensure the rising damp does not return. What really sets her apart is her dedication and availability. She is always there when I have questions, responds to my WhatsApp messages incredibly quickly and provides clear, reassuring advice. She has even gone above and beyond by visiting my house late on a Sunday evening, just before flying off on holiday! That level of commitment is exceptional and genuinely appreciated. I would also like to thank Adam, who went out of his way to arrange an earlier appointment for me, sooner than would normally have been possible. The teams who have carried out the work have also been excellent: friendly, professional, respectful of my property and always careful to clean up thoroughly afterwards. From the initial survey to the work itself, the whole experience has given me confidence that my home is in good hands. The professionalism, expertise and genuine care shown by everyone involved make this company stand out. If you are dealing with rising damp and want the job properly investigated and done right, I wholeheartedly recommend Damp Proofing Solutions. Five stars without hesitation!
We used this company after reading their excellent reviews. We had a damp and timber survey and found the whole experience -from making an enquiry to receiving the report, went very smoothly. Office staff and Jack were helpful and answered all my queries quickly. I would definitely use them again.
We had an excellent experience with Damp Proofing Solutions from start to finish. We live in a Victorian terraced house that we really cherish and take great care of, so it was important to us to find a company that understood older properties and would approach the work with the right level of care and expertise. From the initial damp and mould inspection and report, the team were extremely professional, knowledgeable and thorough. They took the time to explain the issues they had identified, what was likely causing them, and the work they recommended, all in a clear and reassuring way. The work included improving ventilation with air bricks and carrying out remedial work to a basement wall. Everything was completed to a very high standard, with real attention to detail and respect for the property throughout. What particularly impressed us was their technical knowledge and the way they approached the underlying causes of the damp rather than simply treating the visible symptoms. With an older Victorian house, that level of understanding and care makes a real difference. Overall, we found Damp Proofing Solutions to be highly professional, technically knowledgeable and excellent in terms of workmanship. We felt our home was in very capable hands and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and conscientious damp specialist.
I was very happy overall with the work on my house, which was carried out promptly and professionally. The guys were friendly and helpful, keeping me informed about what they were doing. I was also impressed by the efficiency of setting up the project and getting things moving so quickly. Thank you very much, would definitely recommend your company.
Sam from Damp Proofing Solutions did an excellent job is diagnosing our damp issues and providing a remedial plan that was easy to understand. Sam clearly set out the methodology and programme of the works. Damp Proofing Solutions were very accommodating with their timelines as we had building works going on at the same time. Highly recommend this company if you have any damp issues in your house.
Excellent service from start to finish. Recurring problem with rising damp. Surveyor explained process clearly, came with a sample of the replacement dpc. Smashing, bunch of guys came to do the work. They moved a heavy sofa I couldn't and covered everything up. Very respectful of my home cleared up once the job was done. I would highly recommend damp proof solutions.
