Professional Damp & Property Surveys Across Yorkshire
Independent Damp Surveys, Timber Inspections & Moisture Diagnosis
We carry out professional damp and property surveys across Yorkshire, providing clear diagnosis, written findings and practical next steps — without guesswork or unnecessary treatments.
Our surveys identify the true cause of damp, moisture or timber defects so you can make informed decisions and avoid costly misdiagnosis.
Why a proper damp survey matters
Damp is not a single problem, and it cannot be diagnosed by moisture readings alone.
Rising damp, penetrating damp and condensation often produce similar visible symptoms, but each requires a completely different solution. Treating the wrong cause leads to wasted money, repeat damage and returning damp.
A professional damp survey ensures:
-
The moisture source is correctly identified
-
Structural and timber risks are assessed
-
Only necessary remedial work is recommended
Misdiagnosis is one of the most common reasons homeowners spend thousands on ineffective damp proofing.
What our damp surveys assess
During your inspection, we assess both symptoms and causes, including:
-
Signs of rising damp, penetrating damp and condensation
-
Internal and external moisture pathways
-
Condition and position of existing damp proof courses
-
Ground levels, drainage and external defects
-
Salt contamination and plaster failure
-
Ventilation, heating and humidity behaviour
We use moisture profiling and contextual inspection — not isolated meter readings — to build an accurate picture of what’s happening in your property.

Timber surveys and decay assessments
Where damp is present, timber is always at risk.
Our timber surveys assess:
-
Floor joists, skirting boards and structural timbers
-
Signs of wet rot, dry rot or fungal decay
-
Evidence of woodworm or insect infestation
-
Hidden timber risks beneath floors or in roof voids
A timber survey is strongly recommended if:
-
Damp has been identified near timber
-
Floors feel soft, creak or move
-
You’re buying or selling a property
-
Rot or infestation is suspected
Timber decay is often concealed. Early identification prevents structural damage and expensive repairs.
Condensation and mould surveys
Condensation is the most commonly misdiagnosed moisture issue.
Our condensation surveys assess:
-
Internal humidity levels and moisture generation
-
Surface temperatures and cold bridging
-
Ventilation performance and airflow
-
Occupancy and lifestyle-related moisture factors
Where condensation is confirmed, we provide practical, achievable solutions, which may include ventilation upgrades, insulation advice and moisture management strategies — not unnecessary damp-proofing products.
Condensation control is rarely solved by a single change; it requires a coordinated approach, which we explain clearly in your report.
