Fungal decay occurs in timber which becomes wet/damp for a long time resulting of the attack by one of a number of wood-destroying fungi. Now more than ever there is an ever increasing demand for using every available usable space within your home. The result of the need for space has created an extensive and wide spread demand for the conversion of basement areas into dry ventilated usable rooms.

Wood - boring insect attack can cause structural damage in buildings and can be unsightly. There are a number of wood boring insects that attack a variety of timbers in properties in the U.K. Wood - boring insects infestation is commonly described as woodworm. The life cycle of the wood boring beetle is normally always near completion before most property owners are even aware they have a problem.
The answer is most probably yes! If your house constructed of brick or stone, built after the First World War, you probably have cavity wall ties, installed within the construction.

Don't waste your money - inspections carried out by Telepathy.
I asked this company to do the survey of the sub-floor void of my property, because of water ingress and condensation. I was very impressed with the the many 5 star reviews reporting of the time spent at the properties and the equipment used to reach a conclusion.
Adrian was at my property 25 minutes and used just a torch and he didn’t actually inspect the problem area. I really don’t mind paying anyone for their time but this equates to £240 per hour and the problem area was not even examined.
I am very aware of the many qualifications

We found Olympic Construction to be exemplary in their work standard and ethic whilst working on my Grandma's house. After finding damp stains in the wallpaper, we asked if they would take a look and give their recommendation. It was confirmed as damp, and at a time convenient to my Grandma, everything was taken care of. The one thing my Grandma was pleased about was how she was treated through out the process. She commented that it was the little things for her, such as the work men even offering to make her a brew! For an 87 year old, that means a lot. We are not well versed with any of the technicalities

Came out to my house on Saturday. Very professional and straight forward approach, took the time to inspect several areas of the house despite the initial contact being for a damp/condensation issue in one room.
Then discussed with me lots of options, including all the things I can do even before having to think about having any work done.
In terms of advice and guidance it was excellent and also very educational - Adrian took the time to explain in detail some of the common issues related to my problem.
What was also very refreshing was the absolute lack of any hard sell or “if this is not

Very disappointed . Told my wife they couldn't get access to the property to do the survey after several attempts, so we thought they would just refund the money (£100)+vat . When we rung to tell them we had pulled out of the sale due to no access ,low and behold they attended the property the day Before ! But no survey was done !! .I suggest better communication with your "customers" when an appointment is made on their behalf. Complete Waste of £120 . The slant you put on things would equate to king Herod being a slightly rough child minder and the big bad wolf an over zealous building inspector
