“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 Salisbury
Our specialists regularly work throughout Salisbury and the surrounding neighbourhoods.
Why Salisbury homes get damp
Five rivers and a historic city centre. These are the damp problems we find most in Salisbury.
A high water table
With several rivers meeting around the city, many homes sit on wet ground. Old or bridged damp proof courses let moisture rise into walls.
Historic walls sealed in
Flint, brick and timber-framed walls need to breathe. Cement, gypsum plaster and modern paints trap moisture and cause decay.
Cold terraces and condensation
Victorian terraces in Fisherton and Harnham often have cold solid walls where condensation and black mould build up in winter.
Timber decay
Damp floor joists and timber frames in older Salisbury homes are at risk of wet rot, dry rot and woodworm.

Your local damp, mould & timber team in Salisbury
Salisbury is a city of rivers. The Avon, Nadder, Bourne and Wylye all come together around the city, so many streets sit on low, wet ground with a high water table. The medieval centre, laid out in a grid of 'chequers' around the Cathedral, has timber-framed, flint and brick buildings, many of them listed. Fisherton, Harnham and Bemerton have Victorian and Edwardian terraces with solid walls, while Bishopdown, Laverstock and Old Sarum have more modern homes. Old buildings on wet ground are prone to rising damp and timber decay, but they also suffer when sealed with cement and modern paints. Our in-depth survey works out exactly what is going on before we recommend anything.
