Independent Damp & Timber Surveys  London, Surrey, Berkshire, Oxford  Bristol,Bath, Somerset, Dorset, Devon  

Considering a FREE survey? 

Take some time to consider that most companies who provide free surveys are contractors and have a vested interest in advising your property has damp so they can charge for the remedial work. Some may also charge a fee for the inspection which they offer to deduct from the final bill if you instruct them to do work...... what work - they have not set foot inside your property yet! 

 

In contrast West Twelve provide independent, unbiased specialist surveys for home owners, home buyers and building proffesionals. We are members of the Property Care Association (PCA) and recognised as experts in the industry, specialising in all aspects of building preservation.

Get in touch to find out if your property really needs treatment for damp and woodworm, or if you need a secon opinion. We can also offer advice with basement and cellar waterproofing, flood restoration, condensation issues, wet and dry rot.

We take a liberal approach when considering remedial work or treatments. Wherever possible we will recommend environmental measures in the first instance. Our experience and knowledge also accepts that chemical treatments are sometimes unavoidable. Should this be the case we will offer you the best advice and guidance.  

 

We believe that each property we inspect and its symptoms are unique. For this reason we favour tailored, site specific and targeted treatments as opposed to the blanket treatment approach favoured by treatment contractors which is costly and often unnecessary.
