Can't recommend Cliff highly enough, he is incredibly responsive, generous with his time and knowledgeable. Shame he's not local to me any more otherwise I'd have booked him in... thanks again Cliff, all the best!
Couldn't have asked for better damp survey. Cliff produced a very detailed report, which helped us in the negotiations of buying the property. The advice was detailed and very actionable, and we are now confident about fixing the root causes of the damp related problems. Cliff is very affable and extremely knowledgeable. If I ever had an issue related to damp, I would use this service again in a heartbeat.
The excellent advice given by Cliff Fuller in January 2026 enabled me to find viable evidence of a water leak under the floor rather than rising damp after a wrong diagnosis by a plumber sent by the insurance company caused the insurers to refuse to cover the cost of repairs. Having followed Cliff Fuller's advice, the leak repair & remedial work were then undertaken by the insurers & was completed in July. Many, many thanks, highly recommended, 5+ star rating!
Excellent advice given in plain English. Thoroughly recommend Cliff Fuller Associates.
Thank you Cliff for your excellent and honest appraisal of the damp in my flat . You were extremely helpful and pointed me in the right direction to solve all my issue. I can highly recommend Cliff
Cliff carried out a damp survey on a house we’re buying after our home survey flagged some high moisture readings. Right from the start, he went above and beyond, during the initial call I made just to enquire, we spent 20 minutes discussing the property and giving me advice before I’d even booked anything! The report he delivered was comprehensive and easy to follow, and the follow-up call made the whole thing simple to understand. Cliff is clearly an expert and more than happy to share what he knows. Highly recommend!
I needed Chris to undertake a damp survey for a 2 bedroom flat. On our initial call he provided an excellent summary of what he would do as part of the survey and took considerable time to answer all of my questions. He showed up on schedule to conduct the survey at the agreed day & time. His report was detailed and comprehensive - it is clear he has expertise in this space. Afterwards he was equally as patient in answering all my questions about the report. If only every one providing professional and trade services could be as good. I highly recommend.
Cliff has been very helpful with sound and considered advice provided, much appreciated thank you.
We recently purchased a property where two significant damp areas were completely missed during the survey. While the issues were beneath laminate flooring, the laminate itself was visibly drenched and the room had a strong damp smell on entry, something we feel should reasonably have raised concerns during inspection. As a result, we faced substantial and unexpected costs for replumbing and repair. We chose this company based on its strong reviews and were satisfied with what appeared to be a comprehensive report. Unfortunately, our experience has not reflected this. We have since attempted to make contact regarding these findings but have received no response to our emails, which is disappointing. We hope the company will engage with us to discuss this matter.
Knowledgable, experienced and caring professional. Cliff provided a lot of helpful information how to deal with damp in my flat and made some useful recommendations for the next steps. This is a second time my family contacted Cliff and both times we were very happy with the advice we received. Thank you very much!
I called with a minor issue. The gentleman gave me great free advice there and then on how to fix my problem. Very much appreciated!
Cliff’s expertise has been very helpful. He was able to quickly distil lots of different information. He helped me develop a solution for my problem where my risk was mitigated to the maximum extent possible. Highly recommended.
The damp survey report that I received was very comprehensive and gave me a clear understanding of the work that needs to be done to rectify the issues found. This will be very valuable to me in moving forward with the purchase of this property.
Comprehensive advice from Cliff and very detailed report received covering the issues I needed and more. I have contacted him on several subsequent occasions to ask for advice and have always received a prompt and helpful reply. I have no hesitation in recommending Cliff. He is excellent.
We had a quote from a "damp" remedy contractor. We wanted a proper independent opinion and hired Cliff for a survey. He was an excellent and expert independent source of advice, and got to the actual source of the issues - no surprise they were completely different to the simplistic contractor "diagnosis". Cliff gave us clear guidance on the remedial work we needed to get done, and was happy to explain further on the phone. Well worth it, saved us a lot of time and needless work. Thank you Cliff!
Cliff was amazing through the process in providing a survey and report regarding some condensation issues. He gave time in speaking to me before and after the survey, undertook a very thorough assessment of the problem with a comprehensive, understandable report with some very helpful pragmatic suggestions and advice on what to do. I have no hesitation in recommending him.
Cliff was an absolute professional throughout the process - from the initial booking, detailed analysis of the home and questions asked to me as the homeowner, to the comprehensive report and recommendations itself. A rare level of insight, which as a mortgage broker myself, i really appreciate, and i have already recommended him to my family too.
Cliff is superb and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services. Incredibly thorough and highly knowledgeable, he was measured and honest in his recommendations to ensure we focused on the most important jobs. Exactly what you’d want from and independent survey at a fair price.
Cliff is absolutely invaluable - a rare example of someone you can entirely trust who does a really thorough job, is enthusiastic to speak about it and gives you a really good and realistic perspective. He has fantastic expertise and is a joy to work with. Cannot fault his service.
Cliff Fuller put together an expert thorough damp survey of my property, I was worried about damp issues and he provided sound advice for reducing condensation and damp readings. He also has been on hand to talk things through. I have acted on his advice and it has made a huge difference and relieved my worries. I have recommended Cliff to many friends and thoroughly recommend his independent advice for your home.
At last somebody who knows what they are talking about!. Cliff provided a detail and concise report on the problems we were experiencing. Complementing it with some expert knowledge on what could be done.
Fantastic guy, clearly very experienced, and was even happy to offer advice prior to the actual damp survey we'd booked in.
Our charity needed expert advice following a bad leak in one of the properties we manage, and were very relieved to find Cliff. He is hugely knowledgeable and has been able to explain causes and solutions to every resulting issue that has occurred. We are very thankful for his excellent advice, would highly recommend him and will be recommending his services to family and friends.
cliff was refreshingly honest. I booked a survey. But before he even attended. He researched my house online and could see what the issue was based off the pictures and our call. He gave the the number of a specialist who deal with my issue.
We were very pleased to find Cliff-given his qualifications and the fact he is independent from building companies we valued his findings and advice. He is detail oriented but explained outcomes thoroughly in his report and in person so we were able to appreciate what the issues were and how they could be resolved. A very charming, helpful individual with expertise that is in short supply from all the research we did. Many thanks
Cliff is personable and extremely helpful. He knows what he is talking about! His report was really useful as was his advice. I would definitely recommend.
I've worked in property for over 15 years and Cliff is one of the most knowledgeable surveyors I've ever met. His reports are extremely thorough, yet easy to follow. Cliff is happy to chat through anything, and is full of helpful tips and pragmatic solutions which will save us £1000's on our latest project! I would absolutely recommend his services!
Independent, impartial advice. Excellent knowledge was able to diagnose problem and provide practical solutions. Would recommend.
Cliff Fuller helped resolve a problem we have been having for years now, within 20 minutes of making contact. By asking a series of questions, understanding the house and the problem being experienced he was able to quickly determine the root cause of the problem allowing for the corrective actions to be taken. Very experienced and focused on delivering great customer satisfaction. Highly recommend Cliff.
Cliff Fuller was reliable, professional, transparent, kind, and his extremely thorough damp and timber report was excellent value for money. I couldn't recommend him enough and if there were more stars than 5, I would award them. Thank you so much Cliff!
I would highly recommend Cliff Fuller Associates. We gave Cliff a call after we had a homebuyers survey done on the house we were purchasing. From the get go Cliff was clearly very knowledgeable and professional. His survey was very thorough, clearly documented and gave us the information we needed to renegotiate the purchasing price. Thanks for your help and guidance Cliff.
Hi would highly reccomend Cliff for any damp related issues. His knowledge is incredible. Needed some advice on a potential dry rot issue which was very worrying. Thankfully after sharing details with Cliff he reassured me it was not what I had feared and gave me excellent advice on how to maintain the property. Cliff is very courteous and was prompt in responding to any questions in fact I can't reccomend him highly enough. Refreshing honesty and customer care. Don't go anywhere else and get ripped off. Thanks for your help Cliff.
I would highly recommend Cliff Fuller Associates if you need a damp survey. Cliff was great, a lot of good advice and information was given and he quickly diagnosed the issue as condensation with full explanations about dew points and humidity and he also showed us the readings on his equipment. The report was comprehensive and full of pictures and provided quickly. It was reassuring to know as an independent damp surveyor he was there to diagnose and arm us with information on how to proceed rather than a damp company that would be looking for ways to sell expensive services. I was left feeling confident about the issue and confident to carry on with the purchase of the house. Thank you so much Cliff.
Very helpful, thoughtful, practical, knowledgeable advice
I asked Cliff to survey our property after we had been informed there was significant rising damp and the whole living area needed a new damp course and re-plastering. Cliff spent time testing various aspects of the atmosphere in our house, and assessing areas with damp readings. At the end he talked through his assessment and recommendations which detailed some quite different action to take. It was also a lot cheaper than the action we'd originally being advised on. He also assessed some wood worm damage in the loft and determined that it was very old so was not something that needed any action. Over a year later, upon getting contractors in to proceed with some of the work, I asked for advice on what they were planning to do and Cliff was very open to helping me out. He also advised on what I do about a further section which we uncovered. I would definitely use Cliff again if needed in the future.
I would highly recommend Cliff. Incredibly efficient throughout the whole process and very pragmatic in his advice. Our original HomeBuyers surveyor raised a number of (major) concerns over damp, many of which turned out to be erroneous. Cliff was able to provide us with the facts and advise us accordingly.
Brilliant - very thorough and impartial report with details of what in our house is and isn't damp and what's causing it. Exactly what we were looking for. On top of that Cliff is very friendly and happy to explain the report too!
The most efficient and communicative surveyor! We needed a damp survey as the building survey of a property we are purchasing pointed to high damp readings. Cliff far exceeded our expectations - he responded out of hours, booked an inspection quickly, called us straight after the visit and generated the report the next working day. His report detailed the basis of his findings and gave us every confidence that the matter was investigated thoroughly. On the phone Cliff gave his honest opinion of the issue. Most damp surveys are carried out contractors, who have an incentive to sell you their solutions, whether or not they are required. I would highly recommend engaging Cliff for a thorough and honest opinion of the issue, which will most likely save you money and hassle!
We used cliff for a survey on a house we bought recently and he was absolutely fantastic and just so incredibly helpful. It's not often you find people who are so genuinely helpful and honest. He was also very reasonably priced. We are really pleased that we used him and would 100% reccomend him. The report was extremely detailed and he gave us so much great advice. Thanks so much Cliff! We will be recommending you to family and friends.
Very professional, provided detailed impartial damp survey report and offered freindly and sound advice was a pleasure to speak to would highly reccomended to anyone.
We run an estate agency in Reading and choose to work with Cliff based on his online reviews. Very impressed with Cliffs high levels of service and incredible knowledge & experience in this field. Service and availability was swift. I Would have no issues recommending his services to others.
I have no hesitation in recommending Cliff for an independent survey. He is very personable, professional and extremely knowledgeable. He carried out a thorough damp survey and quickly sent a clear and comprehensive report detailing the cause of the problems and setting out the solutions.
Excellent value for money, personable and incredibly helpful. The report we received for the cost was beyond what I expected.
Really impressed with Cliff and his thoroughness and attention to detail. He surveyed our damp problem, which turned out not to be damp but condensation. His report was very helpful and detailed. I'd say we saved £3-£4k if not more! He found a leak which 4 companies missed! Would highly recommend Cliff Fuller Associates.
I would really recommend contacting Cliff if you have any issues with damp. Getting an independent and proper survey has saved us thousands of pounds and enormous hassle, as well as getting to the root of the problem. 5 different "damp proofing" companies had surveyed our basement Flat in Pimlico and each told us the damp proof course had failed and needed replacing. In fact, as Cliff was able to demonstrate, condensation on the surfaces was the problem - he was the only surveyor to check if damp was coming out into the Flat from within the walls and found they actually got drier the deeper in you went! Proper (tenant-proof) ventilation might well be the answer for you too.
I recently used Cliff Fuller Associates for a survey on a property I was looking to buy. He was exceptional through out the process and provided a very detailed report, as well as suggestions on several ways to solve the problem highlighted. If I ever need another survey doing, I won't be looking any further.
Having Cliff do an independent damp survey was money unbelievably well spent. It got to the root of the causes of damp in the property I was buying. And told me what to do about it in the short term and the longer term. This lifted an immense weight off my mind as a first-time buyer. It enabled me to negotiate a fair price reduction so that I could go ahead with the purchase and move towards a watertight home. The report was detailed and full of photos, links and explanations. He gave me time well above the call of duty on a number of occasions on the phone about queries I had. During a steep learning curve about building maintenance the hand-holding was a gift. I will certainly keep in touch and I'm sure I'll be phoning him again with queries. So very glad to have had the survey done and know an independent expert. I actually first wrote this testimonial 2 months ago and am only now posting it here due to my technological incompetence (!). I am so happy to be implementing the measures Cliff prioritised - not particularly expensive ones - and know further measures I can take if need be in future. I am on the way to a healthy as well as a much-loved new home! I should say my vendors had had a damp proof course done 20 years ago when they moved in which hadn't touched the causes of the problem because it wasn't related to rising damp.
We came across Cliff Fuller while looking for independent building surveyors and upon reading such good reviews, we decided to to opt for his services, and I'm so glad we did! His rates were a little more expensive than others we found but you get what you pay for, and given the service we received, it was exceptional value for money. We received the survey report quickly after it was completed and were so pleased with the level of depth, even including photographs. It gave us a clear understanding of the work we needed to have completed, and talking it through with Cliff was very helpful as he is clearly so knowledgable. Ontop of this, such a personable and nice man. Very happy indeed.
I would highly recommend the services of Cliff Fuller if you need an independent damp survey. The survey report was thorough and issued promptly after the inspection had taken place. In addition, Cliff was very helpful in discussing the report and its findings which identified the likely causes of the damp and potential solutions.
Excellent value for money and Cliff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Cliff answered all my questions and was more than happy to offer suggestions for resolving any issues. I would highly recommend Cliff Fuller Associates.
Cliff has been amazing! He was quick to get into the property and returned a very detailed report within 2 days! On top of this he has been super helpful, answering all our questions and concerns and even taking out of hours phone calls. Really couldnt recommend enough. Very informative, supportive and trustworthy.
Cliff provided us with a timber and damp report and was very courteous and professional. He explained his findings really well and is clearly an expert in his field. His report was very detailed and with us really quickly and he was able to fit us in to his schedule at short notice. Would highly recommended his services.
Extremely happy with the outcome, Cliff was very logical and friendly and put our minds at rest that the issues we have with the house are not rising damp. The report he produced confirmed this with instructions for remedial actions.
Cliff was really helpful running through the results of our survey and supplied everything on time. Highly recommended!!
Cliff is very knowledgeable, efficient and helpful. He offers good practical advice and solutions and is accessible for any queries that you might have regarding his report which is very comprehensive. Knows his stuff!
I would highly recommend Cliff to anyone requiring a property damp survey to help identify and address underlying damp or condensation issues. From my initial conversation with him, I felt reassured that I made the right choice and the cost of the survey was very reasonable. He is also a member of the Property Care Association so you know you are dealing with an expert in the field. When conducting the survey, Cliff took the time to explain some of the initial findings and issues. The written report he later provided was extremely thorough and easy to follow, with clear recommendations on the actions to take. Cliff was also happy to discuss it further and answer any follow-up questions I had.
Cliff was awesome, great knowledge and quick response on the report. I would thoroughly recommend soliciting his services before purchasing a property. Andrew
I recently used Cliff Fuller Associates to complete an independent damp survey on a property I’m looking to purchase in Buckinghamshire. I was really impressed with the thoroughness or the report which provided clear guidance on the cause of any damp and suggested remedial works. Throughout the process Cliff was incredibly helpful and more than happy to take the time to talk me through his findings.
Cliff was easy to get hold of and responsive to both calls and emails, both before and after the survey. The survey was very detailed, with clear explanations about the tests and results, and very helpfully, photos of the areas being examined. Cliff was at the property longer than the building surveyor! A real professional and his advice has saved us both time and money. Strongly recommended.
Before coming out, Cliff gave us valuable information over the phone before we even committed to his services. The report was detailed with a fast turnaround. Friendly and very helpful. Highly recommended.
Cliff has helped us massively. His knowledge and expertise were able to diagnose a problem many other professionals had missed for years. His sound advice has finally identified a long running issue under our house. Highly recommend.
Mr. Fuller's survey was the only expense in the multitude associated with this house purchase, most of which are exorbitant for minimal service, which I felt gave proper value for money. We utilised Mr. Fuller as the RICS 'homebuyer's' survey reported high moisture readings, though they would not give any details. Mr. Fuller discovered that the damp patches were not serious & were in fact caused by the incontinence of the owner's pet dog but he then carried out a full damp survey anyway. Fortunately there were no other problems. Mr. Fuller's report was comprehensive & clear. A pity the RICS surveyor wasn't equally competent. As I say, he is the only person in the whole process who I felt was worth & earned his (very reasonable) fee.
Completely professional, helpful, trustworthy. The final report was of exceptional quality, with photos and any technical details easily explained. It also included additional helpful guides to help keep subsequent costs down and avoid costly construction sharks. Definitely above and beyond service and worth the reasonable cost.
From start to finish Cliff was very clear and helpful. Professional at all times producing a high quality easy to interpret report. Highly recommended if you are considering getting an independent damp survey completed.
I recently moved into a property which had areas of high damp meter readings highlighted by the RICS homebuyer report. Prior to moving in I had three damp contractors come in to give me a quote for the remedial work, each contractor advised different courses of treatment at significant cost which left me both confused and frustrated so I decided to get an independent contractor in to hopefully clear up the situation and give me advice as to the root cause of the issue. After contacting Cliff to do the survey he came around and was of great help and was friendly and easy to talk to. He was extremely thorough and spent over three hours at my property talking me through his findings and refreshingly explained to me why most of the works advised by the contractors were not actually needed, giving me practical advice and suggesting sensible improvements I could make to actually alleviate the causes of damp before they became an issue. The survey arrived promptly a few days later and included pictures and hyperlinks to items that could be purchased like passive air vents which I found very useful. I have also since spoken with Cliff as there were a couple of parts of the survey I needed a bit of help understanding again and he was more then happy to re-explain things to me. I would certainly recommended using Cliff's services if you want an honest and sensible evaluation of your property.
Cliff carried out a damp survey for us on a property. His advice and recommendations were very clear, both when on the site and in the written report. Would have no hesitation in recommending Cliff as an independent damp surveyor.
We've just moved into a period property that is over 150 years old with some evidence of damp. Three different companies gave us incredibly different quotes / solutions for our damp, and so we had a full damp and timber survey completed by Cliff as an independent damp specialist to get to the bottom of things. Cliff was an absolute delight: he was friendly, professional and extremely knowledgeable in his field. He was very honest in his findings and itemised what needed to be done to rectify our issues. He also completed a top-to-bottom survey of the entire house, checking for both damp and woodworm, and offering advice on internal and external concerns. Having just moved into our house, and not knowing who to follow with conflicting quotes from different professionals, spending the money for Cliff's time was absolutely the best decision. We now feel more educated / comfortable with how to proceed with best looking after our property. We will be recommending him to family and close friends and can't thank him enough for his insight, practical advice and clear way forward. Do not hesitate to contact Cliff, his fee is more than justified in the top quality of his work and the peace of mind that he provides. He has also enabled us to know our property much better and to make the best informed decisions when planning future works on our new home.
Cliff is a highly experienced professional and articulates his knowledge in an easy to understand way. He diagnosed my problem quickly and led me to the best solution.His independent assessment saved me a considerable amount of money and I highly recommend him.
Good service, very efficient and helpful!
Used Cliff for a basement refurbishment. Provided an independent damp report. Cliff was fanstastic. First class service. Came out to survey property. Arrived on time. Provided excellent report and was available through out the refurbishment to advise and explain whenever necessary. Helped us achieve a dry, damp free refurbishment. Will definitely use Cliff again.
I would happily recommend Cliff Fuller Associates to carry out a damp survey. Cliff was very informative and inspected our home thoroughly inside and out.The survey report was very clear and easy to understand, the report included advice leaflets on how to treat our damp problem. I would strongly recommend paying for an independent damp specialist and to avoid the 'free' survey companies.
Excellent expert survey and advice. Well worth the expense and will likely end up saving us money. Very professional and knowledgeable. Do not rely on a 'free' damp survey from someone else. They will surely find a problem to fix.
Having instructed Cliff to carry out a damp survey on a potential new house we are buying, once Cliff had finished, he agreed to meet me at the property and go through his findings in great detail. If I'd read the report and took it at face value I think I would have run a mile! However Cliff explained all his findings and what the solutions were. He explained in detail but using layman's terms. The survey was enough to put me in a better position with regards to negotiating the offer price. Well worth the fee.
We were very impressed with the quality of Cliff's damp & timber survey report, which was very clear and thorough. Cliff's advice following issuance of the report was also extremely helpful. Would highly recommend.
