Free Surveys vs. Paid Independent Surveys
The Free Survey (£0)
Many commercial remediation companies offer 'free damp surveys'. These are typically sales visits rather than unbiased assessments. Because these companies make money by selling damp-proofing treatments, they have a built-in incentive to find issues — whether or not treatment is genuinely needed.
Not recommendedIndependent Specialist Survey (£150–£600)
Hiring a fully independent, qualified specialist costs money upfront, but they do not sell repair services. They provide an unbiased, comprehensive report pinpointing the exact cause of the moisture — which can often save you thousands in unnecessary work.
RecommendedTypical Cost of Fixes (If Treatment Is Needed)
If the survey identifies a structural problem, treatment costs vary by the type of damp.
All treatment costs are subject to a full survey and written quotation. Prices vary significantly by property size and extent of damage.
