How much does a damp survey cost in Hull?
In short: Our damp survey costs £119 across Hull, East Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire, and the £119 is deducted from the cost of any treatment if you accept our quote. A pre-purchase damp survey is also £119, on the same terms, and a landlord damp and mould report is £99.
What you get for £119
- Moisture readings across the affected walls and nearby unaffected areas.
- A look at the pattern of the damp inside.
- An outside inspection: gutters, downpipes, pointing, render, sills, the damp-proof course line and ground levels.
- A check on ventilation, extraction and heating.
- A written report: what we found, what is causing it, photos, and what we recommend, in order of priority, including simple fixes you can do yourself.
- A quote for any work you would like us to do, including replastering and making good.
More detail: what a damp survey includes.
How the £119 is deducted
If the survey shows treatment is needed and you accept our quote, the £119 comes off the cost of the work. If the fix is something simple you can sort yourself, or no treatment is needed, you have paid £119 for the answer and nothing more.
Other surveys and reports
- Pre-purchase damp survey: £119, with the written report within 3 days. If you buy the property and go ahead with our quote, the £119 is deducted from the work.
- Landlord damp and mould report: £99. We aim to inspect within 5 days of your request.
Free surveys and why we charge
Some firms offer free damp surveys and recover the cost through the treatment they recommend. We would rather charge a fair fee for an honest diagnosis, so there is no pressure to find a problem that needs treating. Because the fee is deducted if you go ahead, it costs you nothing extra when work is needed.
