Independent Damp Surveyor

Damp, timber and thermal surveys in Bloxwich

A large share of our Bloxwich work is rented and social housing where condensation and black mould have become entrenched. Our reports set out the cause, the ventilation shortfall and the remedial priority in the format housing providers need.

We survey terraced and semi-detached stock around High Street, Blakenall, Leamore and the Beechdale and Mossley estates. Sealed-up flues, blocked vents, replacement windows without trickle vents and undersized extract fans are behind most of the mould we record here.
