Reliable and honest damp specialist needed

Hi there


We need to have a damp and timber report done on a property we're hoping to buy (the mortgage requires it) but we're concerned that apparently lots of companies hunt out work for themselves when doing this report, thus resulting in a long list of things being reported back that really are pretty standard fare in a ground floor Victorian property, and which don't strictly speaking need to be dealt with. We of course want to know if there is anything major going on before we proceed, but we don't want a crook tradesman holding up our mortgage for his own benefit!


Can anyone recommend an honest specialist that they have had a good experience with?


Thanks!


Nikki

    • As far as I am aware, the UK are not selling weapons to Russia and aren’t helping the Sudanese government to commit massacres. I also doubt that the Sudanese authorities claims that their army is “the most moral army in the world” and I also doubt that they are backed up by the majority of the Western world. This is why people are marching on Saturday, to reiterate that killing children is not ok and to show the world that they are not alone fighting against that evil fascist government, nothing more, nothing less. P.S: if you’re aware of any marches going on in London for the poor Sudanese people, I will gladly attend. 
    • So what do you want to see happen in the site ? The developer has to make money so increasing social housing may not be financially viable and we 100% need more accommodation locally.  Also the quote that it will be used by people as second homes is a bit strange, I would have suspected that would be the opposite as people might look to the countryside for a second home, not a semi run down town centre. For future, can you attach files as PDFs not word documents as my firewall blocks Word downloads due to increased risk of carrying hidden payloads.   
    • If you don't locate the owner happy to take it to a charity for you such as the Bike Project.  A description would be good and I can check my networks 
    • Hi there,    We have been having our windows cleaned by a lovely man for the past 10 years. This is a bit bonkers, but we don't have his number. Because we were often at work when he knocked for payment, we set up a monthly direct debit to him and never needed to contact him. Now our neighbours are looking for their windows done. I wondered if anyone might have his contact details? He does many of the shops on Forest Hill Road SE22   Thanks!   Julia
