Used the company so many times, very efficient!Posted on Stephen CooperTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andy and Stuart recently, August 2025, completed a damproofing job for us. I’m retired and was able to watch the process. Their range of skills, attention to detail and dealing with problems was impressive,. I’ve seen a lot of builders on our property over the years few have demonstrated their standards. At every stage, they made the effort to explain the treatments and the restoring of plasterwork.Posted on bethany laraTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
