If you’re curious about the work Scott does, read below for a step-by-step guide to what is included in your Damp Survey.
1. Ethical Quoting
Once you have contacted Scott, he will provide a no obligations assessment of your situation and at this time he will give you an initial idea of the cost of the survey as soon as possible.
2. Quick Response Time
We aim to conduct your survey within the time requirements you have specified which in our experience is normally within 3-4 days. If for whatever reason Scott is unable to complete your survey quickly this will be made clear to you during the initial assessment.
3. Site Visit
Once contact has been initiated and you are happy with the assessment, Scott will arrange to come and visit the property and if necessary liaise with tenants, estate agents or the property owners to gain access to the property and undertake the survey. The survey itself typically takes about an average of 3 hours for a small residential property.
We are unable to offer a fixed quote for a damp survey to any of our customers because every case and property is different. The best course of action is to get in touch so that we can discuss your issues and your options, providing us with as much information as possible. This will help us to gain a better understanding of the problem & provide you with an estimated cost for your survey. A Damp detectives survey generally costs less than a basic home buyer’s survey and is, therefore, excellent value for money.
