Areas We Cover

We work in Colchester and the surrounding parts of Essex. We are a service-area business rather than a shop, so we come to the property — which is the only place a damp problem can really be understood.

Colchester

Town-centre period properties, Victorian terraces and post-war and modern housing across the borough.

Lexden

Larger older houses and established streets where solid-wall construction and later alterations are common.

Stanway

A mix of village properties and newer development, with very different construction on each.

Wivenhoe

Riverside and older cottage properties, where ground conditions and exposure both matter.

Marks Tey

Village housing and outlying properties, including older brick and rendered buildings.

West Bergholt

Village streets with a mixture of period cottages and modern homes.

Mile End

Predominantly newer housing where condensation and ventilation are frequent causes.

Highwoods

Later twentieth-century estates with cavity construction and modern detailing.

Prettygate

Post-war and later housing, generally cavity-walled with modern damp-proof courses.

Surrounding villages

We regularly work in the villages around Colchester. If you are nearby, ask.

Whichever area you are in, the process is the same: a damp survey first, then damp proofing or repair only where it is genuinely needed.

Seeing damp or mould in your property?

You do not need to work out the cause yourself. Tell us what you are seeing and we can help you understand the next sensible step.
