Part of Ward Property Services UK LtdProfessional damp diagnosis and repair across Surrey
Damp Specialist Banstead is the dedicated moisture and leak division of Ward Property Services UK Ltd.
We started with a simple observation: too many homeowners were being sold expensive damp-proofing systems for problems that actually needed a simple repair. A bridged cavity, a leaking gutter, or poor ventilation can all mimic rising damp, but they don't need chemical injection to fix.
By separating the survey from the sale, we give our clients honest, evidence-based answers. Our surveyors use calibrated equipment to find the source of moisture, and our repair team has the skills to put the property back together — from structural timber repairs to high-quality decoration.
Independent damp diagnosis
We diagnose the cause before we quote for works, so you only pay for repairs your property actually needs.
Surveyor-led reports
Written moisture reports with meter readings, photographs and clear recommendations you can share with insurers or solicitors.
Insurance work welcome
We prepare schedules of works and evidence packs for escape-of-water and leak damage claims across Surrey.
Full reinstatement in-house
From leak detection to plastering and decoration, one team completes the job and leaves your home finished.

A clear, staged approach to identifying and resolving damp and moisture issues.
Talk to a specialist
Tell us what you are seeing — tide marks, peeling paint, black mould or a ceiling stain. We advise straight away whether a survey is needed.
On-site moisture survey
We use protimeter readings, thermal imaging, hygrometry and salt analysis to separate condensation from rising, penetrating or leak-related damp.
Written report and fixed quote
You receive a plain-English report with photographs, the cause, the recommended works and a fixed price with no obligation.
Repair, dry and reinstate
Our team carries out the works, dries the structure to target moisture levels and reinstates plaster, skirting and decoration.
