Example work, explained
Finding the cause of a damp wall
- The problem
- A damp patch, peeling finish or recurring staining needs a cause established. A meter reading or photograph alone cannot distinguish every source of moisture.
- The work involved
- Review when the patch appears, nearby plumbing, external defects, ventilation and the building's construction. Agree further investigation and source repairs from the findings.
- Checks and next steps
- Explain the likely source, any limits of the inspection and the plan for repair and drying. Surface treatment or redecorating is considered once the underlying problem is addressed.

About neighbourhoods and postcode matching
August 2026 ONS postcode data identifies boroughs sharing an outward district. Named centres use London Plan references; neighbourhood postcode examples use local address sources. Neither defines an exact neighbourhood boundary. Even a full postcode entered here is matched only by its first part.
Where a dedicated local service guide is available, we link to it. Other places lead to the relevant borough guide with your selected area carried into the enquiry. Your full repair address is needed when arranging attendance.

Questions about damp & mould investigation
Can the wall simply be coated to stop water?
A coating may be unsuitable for the construction or fail to address the source. Investigation should inform the repair method.
Can you tell the cause of damp from a photograph?
Photos help describe the symptoms but do not prove the cause. Building condition, moisture sources and the history of the problem need consideration before a treatment is recommended.
How much does external wall leak investigation cost?
Repair method, access and the affected area determine the quote. We provide a quote including VAT for the agreed work.
Do you cover all of London?
