“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 New Milton
Our specialists regularly work throughout New Milton and the surrounding neighbourhoods.
Why New Milton homes get damp
Clifftop weather and a lot of bungalows and flats shape the problems we see here.
Clifftop wind and rain
Homes in Barton on Sea and Milford on Sea take driving rain off the sea, which gets in through worn pointing, render cracks and window seals.
Condensation in bungalows and flats
Cold rooms, closed windows and drying washing indoors cause black mould, especially in bedrooms and on north-facing walls.
Ageing damp proof courses
Older homes near the station may have damp proof courses that have failed or been bridged by raised paths and patios.

Every service is delivered by our own in-house team and backed by our 25-year guarantee.
Your local damp, mould & timber team in New Milton
New Milton grew up around the railway from the late 1800s, so the streets near the station have Edwardian and inter-war homes, while much of the rest of the town and Ashley, Bashley and Hordle are later 20th-century. Barton on Sea sits right on the cliff top, where homes take the full force of wind and rain off the sea. The area has a lot of bungalows and purpose-built retirement flats, where condensation and mould are common in colder rooms, especially if windows stay shut in winter. Older houses may have rising damp or failed pointing. Whatever you have, our ISSE-accredited surveyors find the cause first and explain it in plain English.
