“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.”

Areas we cover near Lymington
Our specialists regularly work throughout Lymington and the surrounding neighbourhoods.
Why Lymington homes get damp
A harbour town full of period buildings. These are the issues we find most often.
Coastal weather
Driving rain and damp, salty air near the Quay and marshes work into worn pointing and render, causing penetrating damp.
Period homes and modern repairs
Georgian brick walls repaired with cement or sealed with modern paints trap moisture, which then shows inside.
Timber decay in older homes
Old floor joists, roof timbers and sash windows are at risk of wet rot, dry rot and woodworm if they stay damp.

Every service is delivered by our own in-house team and backed by our 25-year guarantee.
Your local damp, mould & timber team in Lymington
Lymington is an old harbour town on the Lymington River, looking out over salt marshes towards the Isle of Wight. Its High Street and the cobbled streets down to the Quay are lined with Georgian and older buildings, many listed, with solid brick walls, lime mortar and timber floors. Being so close to the water, homes near the Quay and marshes face damp air, driving rain and, on lower ground, higher ground moisture. Pennington and the edges of town have more 20th-century homes, and Brockenhurst, Boldre and Sway add Forest cottages and larger period houses. Each needs a different approach, so our in-depth surveys always start with the building, not a product.
