David was very helpful, knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions I threw at him last week, and there were a lot!

His feedback has saved the need for unrequired damp proof course work and will no doubt have saved our house sale from stalling. Thank you, I would have no hesitations in recommending or using David again.

With thanks for the report and your work. We will be speaking to the builder about action to try and resolve the problem.

We appreciated your warm approachable manner and your willingness to listen and are grateful that you identified condensation to be the problem after various other attempts to try and identify the damp patch had not been successful.

Thank you so much for doing our survey. I can’t get over how detailed it is, definitely worth the money.   I’m glad to see there isn’t too much wrong and appreciate how thorough you were.

Elecia, whose house it was, said she was so impressed that she will try to hire you herself and you can’t get a better recommendation than that.
