“Excellent service from start to finish. The survey was thorough and professional, with honest, evidence-based advice rather than trying to sell unnecessary work. I came away with complete peace of mind.”

“Excellent service throughout. Ashton came out to look at an issue raised on a part-exchange survey and, rather than recommend expensive remediation, told me honestly there was nothing wrong with the wall. Great to have an honest discussion.”

Local knowledge

Why Blandford homes get damp

Georgian buildings and a riverside setting bring their own problems. These are the most common.

Georgian walls and modern materials

Solid brick walls rebuilt after the 1731 fire were made with lime. Cement pointing and plastic paints trap moisture and cause internal damp.

Ground moisture by the Stour

Homes on lower ground near the river can see rising damp where damp proof courses are old, missing or bridged.

Timber decay

Old floor joists, roof timbers and window lintels in period homes are at risk of wet rot, dry rot and woodworm when they stay damp.

What we do

Every service is delivered by our own in-house team and backed by our 25-year guarantee.

Local specialists

Your local damp, mould & timber team in Blandford Forum

Blandford Forum is famous for its Georgian centre. After a great fire in 1731 the town was rebuilt in brick with stone details, and many of those buildings are now listed. Their solid walls, lime mortar and timber floors need breathable repairs, and they often suffer when cement pointing or modern paints have been added over the years. The town sits on the River Stour, so homes on the lower ground and in Blandford St Mary can face higher ground moisture. Pimperne, Charlton Marshall and Spetisbury add a mix of older cottages and newer homes. We see rising damp, penetrating damp, condensation and timber decay here, and our in-depth survey tells you which one you have before any work is suggested.
