Positive Input Ventilation Unit defends against the Cold!
On a recent damp inspection on a three bedroom semi detached in Glossop, our surveyor discovered mould forming on the external walls and ceiling edges in both of the front bedrooms. With our client understandably concerned, we discussed a number of possible solutions to their problem.
Beating Condensation with Flat Master PIV
Our client reported mould developing on the walls and skirting boards. With the basement being used for a playroom for the children, mould brought on by condensation, was certainly not ideal.

Really professional work. Performed a survey, created a detailed report, and worked with us, in face-to-face visits, to figure out anything that we did or didn’t need doing.
Physical work carried out with little fuss and went above and beyond being very helpful with specific requests that arose during the work.
Would recommend to anyone.

Really impressed by the service from Damp Solutions. The original qoute provided by Dale was very reasonable and came with a detailed report of the damp proofing work that needed doing and what was involved.
The work was carried out by Kane and the team who did a great job. Very curtious, tidy, and efficient. I even managed to work from home throughout the week while they were here! Left the place nice and clean afterwards too - couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Thank you for all your help, you went above and beyond not only helping with the issue I contacted you for but also other parts of the house that have now been caught before they become a problem. Everyone was so helpful, tidy and efficient. I wouldn’t hesitate in using them again if I ever needed to or recommending to anyone else. Thank you 😊

From meeting Dale at my parents house to the finish of the job, Dale has been brilliant, such a lovely young man, he was lovely with my elderly parents, went above and beyond to assist them with the job they needed doing, his knowledge is outstanding. Everything was done professionally and everything was explained and put in writing, so you know exactly what your getting for your money, the lads turned up to do the job and fully respected mum and dads house, they worked hard to complete it in one week, a fantastic company and owner, I would highly recommend Dale and his work lads to anyone, thank you so much for your empathy to my parents and their plight.

Dale and his team did a fantastic job. Dale provided a thorough estimate and delivery timeline, both of which were met, and his team were courteous and punctual each day. They took care to minimise mess and cleaned up thoroughly after the job was done, which massively reduced the stress for me! Thanks chaps.
