The part homeowners care about most is the part many damp contractors skip. Once the cause is fixed and the structure is dry, the room still needs plastering, skirtings, flooring, tiling, kitchen units refitted and everything decorated. Being left with bare walls and a list of trades to find is a poor end to an already stressful job.
We complete reinstatement in-house. That means one point of contact, one programme of works and no gap between the specialist works and the finishing trades. It also means the standard of the finish is our responsibility, not somebody else's.
