Survey & diagnosis
Why a proper damp survey matters
A damp survey is a professional inspection that identifies the type and underlying cause of damp using moisture readings and experienced assessment, then sets out the right remedy in a written report. Because rising damp, penetrating damp and condensation each need completely different treatments, an accurate diagnosis is the single most important step — it stops you paying for the wrong fix.

Damp Surveys Newcastle FAQs
What does a damp survey involve?
A specialist inspects your property inside and out, takes moisture readings, identifies the type and cause of damp, and gives you a clear written report with a recommended solution and fixed-price quote. It removes the guesswork so you only pay for work you actually need.
Is the damp survey really free?
We offer free local damp estimates, and where a chargeable detailed survey is needed we'll tell you upfront — and the survey fee is deducted from the cost of the job if you go ahead.
Do you provide a report for my mortgage or sale?
Yes. We can provide a professional written damp report suitable for buyers, sellers, solicitors and lenders, documenting findings, cause and recommended remedial works.
How quickly can you survey my home?
We typically respond within 24 hours and can usually arrange a survey at a time that suits you within a couple of days.
