Damp proofing in Bournemouth

Heavily occupied conversions and purpose-built flats often combine limited extract ventilation with cold external walls. We assess airflow, surface temperatures and occupancy before assuming a fabric fault, so the treatment matches the real cause.

Rain-facing elevations near the coast take a heavier weather load, so pointing, render and window details are common entry routes. We inspect the external envelope on the exposed side rather than assuming every damp patch is rising damp.

No branch claim is made. Quay Point Plastering is based in Poole and travels to suitable work in Bournemouth, subject to availability and scope.

Damp and timber surveys, rising and penetrating damp work, condensation and mould advice, timber treatment and damp-related plastering are available where the inspection supports them.

We confirm a realistic appointment date and timescale when you enquire. Travel and scheduling are agreed before booking, so you are never promised attendance we cannot deliver.

Written guarantee terms are matched to qualifying work, with inclusions, exclusions and aftercare explained clearly before you accept the quotation.

They help us triage the enquiry and plan the visit, but do not replace an on-site inspection.

Yes — completely. We offer every homeowner and property manager across Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire a complimentary specialist survey at no charge. This includes an on-site inspection, written findings, a clear scope of any recommended work, and an honest referral if the problem falls outside what we do. You pay nothing for the survey. You only pay if you commission the remedial work, and you are under no obligation to do so. The reason we do this is straightforward: we believe in diagnosing the problem before recommending a treatment. A proper inspection takes time, and we'd rather invest that time up front than quote a solution before we've understood the cause.
