Frequently Asked Questions
The cost of damp proofing varies according to a number of factors. These include the type of damp (rising or penetrating), the extent of the problem, the size of your property and many more. Visit our damp proofing costs page for more information.
Often the skirting boards do not come off intact due to the damp so we usually recommend new skirting. We will leave your property ready for painting and making good, including fitting new skirting boards, but do not offer this service ourselves. We can put you in touch with someone to refit new skirting and to do the painting.
We will remove and dispose of all the waste and rubble, leaving your property as we found it.
Yes. All our employees have been home vetted and are CRB/DBS check ready.
There is no fine print or grey areas in the London Damp Specialist guarantee. The areas we treat will be covered against damp for 30 years - so if damp arises in the same area then it will be repaired at zero cost to the customer.
Testimonials

Paul from the London Damp Specialist was really quick to respond and quote. The work was done in the time promised, to a high standard, and they didn’t make any mess. Would definitely recommend.
Millie
Professionals. Will definitely be using Paul’s services in the future
Adrian
Excellent work from Paul and his team. Quote was fair and work was undertaken fairly soon. They protected the floors and tidied up afterwards with barely any sign of them having been in, impressive considering the scope of work done. Its now 2 months on and no signs of damp, Thanks Paul.

My walls were waterproofed and plastered with minimum fuss and maximum efficiency. The price was excellent, the appointments were all bang on time, the work was rendered perfectly. All done with perfect politeness and helpfulness. Highly recommended.
