I've had the pleasure of working with Home Building & Surveying Company on multiple occasions for various damp proofing projects around my home, and they have consistently exceeded my expectations.
Each interaction with them reaffirms my decision to keep coming back.
Their team is notably professional and knowledgeable. During my first project with them, they thoroughly explained the process and answered all my questions, making me feel completely at ease. They've always been punctual, arriving on time and prepared, which is a testament to their professionalism.
The quality of work is outstanding. Not only did they address the immediate damp issues, but they also took proactive measures to ensure that the problems wouldn't recur, offering valuable advice on maintaining a damp-free environment. The results have been durable and effective, keeping my home dry and comfortable.
What truly sets them apart is their customer service. The team is always friendly, respectful, and considerate of my property, ensuring minimal disruption to my daily routine. They leave the work area clean and tidy, which is greatly appreciated.
I have recommended Home Building & Surveying Company to friends and family, all of whom have been equally satisfied with their services. If you're dealing with damp issues, this company should be your go-to provider. They not only deliver high-quality results but also make the entire process smooth and hassle-free.
Thank you, Home Building & Surveying Company, for your continued excellence and reliability. I look forward to our future projects together!

Very comprehensive and professional.

Can't really fault these guys. It was a big project and the weather was definitely against us. Communication was good, the initial visit was much more comprehensive then others and the workmen had a good ethic and left all areas clean.

Gentleman arrived spot on time, introduced himself listened to my problem , checked all round moving furniture and was found to be condensation and how to cure it wonderful.
Jonathan Purchase
Damp Proofing
Stuart came and had a look. I had previously had two other companies have a look charging between 900-1600 for damp. Turns out it was just condensation on the wall and I just needed to ventilate. A genuinely honest company that saved me a lot of money for no charge. I can’t recommend them enough. More...

Quick response to our enquiry - 5 mins. Surveyor here within 24 hours. Expertise was impressive. The main difference from other companies regarding our damp problems was BSC were all about treating the problem whilst others were concentrating on treating the symptom.

Christine Lane
Damp Proofing
Excellent customer service! James did a very thorough survey and identified a small breach in the tanking in the basement (not fitted by them) He was very knowledgeable and did his very best to find an ‘economical’ solution. He was very honest and I was able to conclude that at this point the cost of repair far outweighed the benefits gained. Should the situation change I would definitely use them. More...
Zack Fresswell
Good lads, grafted hard and done a good job.
M Northam
I must say I'm really impressed with the whole process. I have previously had damp properties and know the problems and stress it can carry. Throughout the process I felt informed and that the people I was dealing with where professional and honest about the task at hand. Price wise is was more than I first budgeted but the guys where first rate and clearly deserved their money! Overall a great experience just hope that's the end of the damp! More...
