miga Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Our building survey found some woodworm (no idea if active/inactive) and a bit of damp - we'd like to get this looked at by a specialist surveyor - does anyone have any recommendations? I've attempted to contact a number of google hits yesterday to little success, so someone local(-ish) would be great.

miga Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 OK - I've now had some luck getting quotes from a couple of timber & damp surveyors. Turns out that there is an industry body http://www.property-care.org/ and that they list surveyors who will visit a given postcode. It also turns out that there aren't very many specialist surveyors for this type of thing, so it's a bit of a wait getting one done. Finally, woodowrm is unlikely to be a problem, see here for example http://www.askjeff.co.uk/woodworm-the-hole-in-the-argument/, so our survey is probably overkill. Might post back surveyors details if they seem good in a couple of weeks.

Lowlander Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I think we have a recent and small infestation - very fresh and new looking holes. Does anyone know of a local firm who could give me a second opinion?
