Customer Testimonials

“Excellent service from start to finish. The surveyor was thorough and explained everything clearly. The rising damp treatment was completed on time and the replastering looks perfect. Highly recommend Brighton Damp Proofers to anyone with damp issues.”

“We had a terrible condensation and mould problem in our Victorian terrace. The team identified the ventilation issues, installed a PIV unit and new extractor fans, and the mould has not returned since. Really knowledgeable and professional throughout.”

“Had a full damp survey done before purchasing a period property. The report was incredibly detailed and saved us from a very costly mistake — the property had serious dry rot that the vendor's surveyor had missed entirely. Worth every penny.”

“Brighton Damp Proofers treated woodworm in our roof timbers and replaced two decayed joists in the ground floor. The work was done efficiently with minimal disruption. The 20-year guarantee gives us real peace of mind.”

“Our cellar had been damp and unusable for years. The team installed a full cavity drain membrane system with a sump pump, and we now have a completely dry utility room. Transformative work — we wish we had done it sooner.”

“We had persistent damp patches on the bedroom wall that turned out to be penetrating damp from cracked render. They repaired the render, replaced the damaged plaster inside, and the wall has been bone dry ever since. Very fair pricing too.”

“Had the whole front of our house re-rendered after the old cement render was trapping moisture and causing damp inside. The new lime render looks fantastic and the internal damp has completely gone. The team were tidy and professional every day.”

“We had internal wall insulation fitted to our solid-walled bungalow and the difference is remarkable. The house is noticeably warmer, our heating bills have dropped, and the condensation we used to get on the bedroom walls has stopped completely.”

“Used Brighton Damp Proofers for a rising damp problem in our 1920s semi. From the initial survey to the final coat of plaster, everything was handled professionally. The surveyor took the time to explain the difference between rising damp and condensation, which I really appreciated.”

“Needed a damp survey for a mortgage application and the report was completed within two days. Clear, well-written, and the lender accepted it without any queries. Would definitely use them again.”

“As a landlord with six properties in Brighton, I rely on Brighton Damp Proofers for all my damp work. They treated rising damp in my Victorian terrace — injected a new damp-proof course and replastered the hallway and front room. The tenants are delighted and I have not had a single complaint since. Professional, reliable, and competitively priced.”

“We had condensation and black mould spreading across our bedroom ceiling and behind the wardrobe in our ground floor flat. The team installed a PIV unit in the hallway cupboard and improved the bathroom extraction. Three months on and there is no sign of mould returning. They also gave us helpful advice on daily ventilation habits.”

“We commissioned a full damp survey before buying a Regency townhouse in Brunswick. The report identified penetrating damp through the parapet wall and early-stage dry rot in the basement joists — issues the seller's surveyor had completely overlooked. The detail in the report gave us the leverage to renegotiate the purchase price. Invaluable service for any homebuyer.”

“Brighton Damp Proofers treated extensive woodworm in the floor joists and replaced a section of decayed timber in our 1930s semi. The team lifted the floorboards carefully, treated everything thoroughly, and left the house spotless. The 20-year guarantee backed by the PCA gives us real confidence in the work.”

“Our 1960s detached house had a persistent damp problem on the gable end wall caused by cracked pebbledash rendering. The team stripped back the old render and applied a breathable silicone system that looks much better than the original. Inside, the damp patches have completely dried out. Excellent workmanship from start to finish.”

“Penetrating damp was coming through the flint wall of our coastal cottage — the pointing had eroded badly over the years. Brighton Damp Proofers repointed the exterior with lime mortar and applied a breathable water repellent. The interior wall has been dry through two winters now. They clearly understand older and exposed buildings.”

“We had internal wall insulation fitted to our exposed coastal bungalow and the improvement has been dramatic. The house holds heat far better, the cold spots on the walls are gone, and our energy bills have dropped noticeably. The installation was clean and completed in three days. We only wish we had done it years ago.”

“I manage a block of six flats in Eastbourne and called Brighton Damp Proofers after two ground-floor tenants reported damp. The survey identified a failed damp-proof course across the front elevation. They injected a new chemical DPC and replastered both flats within a week. Minimal disruption to the tenants and the work has been flawless.”

“Our basement had been flooding in heavy rain for years. Brighton Damp Proofers installed a cavity drain membrane system with a sump pump and it has been completely dry ever since — even through last autumn's storms. We have now converted it into a home office. The project was managed brilliantly from survey to sign-off.”

“I needed a pre-purchase damp survey on a 1950s ex-council house before completing the sale. The surveyor was thorough and honest — he found minor condensation issues but confirmed there was no rising damp, despite what the estate agent's surveyor had suggested. Saved me from unnecessary treatment costs. Trustworthy and knowledgeable.”

“Condensation and mould had been a recurring problem in our south-facing flat, particularly in the spare bedroom and bathroom. The team installed mechanical ventilation and improved the extraction in both rooms. They also treated the existing mould professionally. Six months later and every surface is still clean and dry. Fantastic result.”

“As a letting agent, I need contractors I can trust to do the job properly the first time. Brighton Damp Proofers have handled timber treatment across three of my managed properties — dealing with woodworm in roof timbers and a wet rot issue in a ground floor bay window. Every job has been completed on time, on budget, and to a high standard.”
