At Property Care Consultants we believe getting an independent survey is the best first step in addressing problems relating to damp and timber. You can find out more about why at ‘choose an independent surveyor’.

As professional surveyors our approach is aimed at correct diagnosis of defects first and foremost. Once the underlying cause is identified recommending the most appropriate remedy for that specific situation is the next step.
