Matthew was able to diagnose our condensation issue through email and provided very detailed, practical advice for FREE. Following this advice has solved the issue and we are grateful for excellent customer service.

Really great experience with Cotswold Remedial Services and Matthew who provided some really helpful information and advice on the problem we were experiencing. His experience and expertise allowed him to diagnose our problem and ultimately recommend that his services were no longer needed, meaning we were able to fix the problem ourselves and save ourselves some money. He could have easily recommended that he complete the work but he didn't do that which shows his integrity levels. Would highly recommend to others.

I chose Matthew's company by trawling through Google reviews. I don't live at the property so I needed someone I felt I could trust to be reliable and take good care of it. The professionalism of the company was excellent and the response to any queries was timely. I wanted a 10 year guarantee and the GPI cover for a little bit extra was worth it to me. The property has been well taken care of with floor coverings in place. Matthew discovered some evidence of a past problem in the ceiling which he investigated further but has left the ceiling in a good state of repair at no extra cost. Would highly

Matthew came to fix our rising damp issue. Not only did he do a fantastic job itself, he was reliable and trustworthy too. Would definitely recommend to anyone who requires services like this. The original plan changed slightly as he uncovered a lovely stone wall we decided to keep but he was very happy to accommodate the change to what we first agreed. Would give 5 stars.

I would very much endorse the other excellent reviews listed here. Matt provided a really professional service. He was totally reliable, did exactly what he said he would and when he said he would. He was highly organised and paid great attention to detail. He was courteous and respectable at all times both to us and to our property. Nothing was too much trouble. The job was finished to a high standard. Can not recommend more highly.

This is the second time we have used Cotswold Remedial Services Damp Proofing and utilised Matt's extensive knowledge of Victorian properties. We required a new basement waterproofing system which Matt explained in great detail both verbally and in writing prior to the work being undertaken. He also took the time to provide daily updates on what work was to be done each day and provided timescales. This was much appreciated whilst we were working from home during the period of work. He is very professional and efficient and the cleanest, tidiest contractor we've had doing work on our house. We

Matt was professional and kept us informed about the work required, from the initial survey through to completion. He clearly cares about the quality of service and we are delighted with the results. Additionally, he provides a guarantee that shows the confidence that he has in his own work. Would definitely recommend.

We had Cotswold Remedial Services (Matthew) carry out work on our living room. We live in a red brick Victorian townhouse and we had bad rising damp along 3 walls. They took it back to brick, treated and re-plastered and it looks great. There is also insurance backing to the work. Matthew and team were knowledgeable, helpful and reliable. Would recommend.

Matthew has done a brilliant job providing advice and carrying out work on our Victorian property. Following his report, he has undertaken work on woodworm and damp proofing the property. Very professional, helpful and courteous. He also discounted/reassured us that we did not need work that others had recommended (thankfully). Also found it helpful that Matthew had lived in period properties before so drew on his personal experience, which I found reassuring. All the work came with guarantees and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Thanks Matthew

For 3 years I had been dealing with rising damp and black mould growing in and out of my property. It was such a headache and I spent so much money cleaning redecorating trying to find the root of the cause. I finally decided to take professional advice from Cotswolds remedial services. They provided full comprehensive quote with the action needed to resolve the issue. The investment was very worthwhile, as now we have no issues going forward and the property has been eradicated of all mould and rising damp.
Fantastic company, fantastic personnel, highly recommend.
