Dry Rot (Serpula Lacrymans) and Wet Rot (Coniophora puteana) both have detrimental effects on the structure of your property. These fungi have destructive attributes that can cause serious deterioration to the foundations of your property.
A common route of condensation is caused by the ever improving standards or insulations, double glazing and draught proofing in properties. These installations boast obvious benefits in their retention of heat; however it can result in poor air ventilation, stale air, and trapped moisture. Over time this lack of ventilation can result in unhealthy living conditions.
Woodworm can cause serious damage to structural timbers. The beetle lay their eggs in open joints and crevices within the timber, the eggs hatch into larvae (woodworm), the worm bore through the wood which will weaken and damage the structure. If woodworm infestation goes unnoticed for a long period this can have an incredibly detrimental effect on the structure of the property.
Accurate diagnosis of damp and timber problems in buildings is essential to ensure appropriate remedies without unnecessary use of chemicals and undue expense. Anglian Preservation will charge a small fee for survey's and written reports. Companies that offer free survey's and reports, will usually send unqualified surveyors that are on commission.

This is a very overdue review for David as he was kind enough to come and quote for us when we were buying a house locally. He was really responsive and helpful and I felt like he had integrity and would only advise on works that were really needed. Unfortunately the house sale fell through but I would contact David again for any further damp proofing needs.

100% professional 100% reliable 100% punctual David was friendly and honest and did a very good job. He also advised about how to replace flooring that was damaged by the woodworm after he had treated it. Would not think twice about reccomending him to anyone.
