Damp Survey — Poole
Damp Survey in Poole

Local context
Why Poole properties need careful diagnosis
Working from our Poole base gives us extensive knowledge of local building patterns — from harbour-side conversions with exposed masonry to Parkstone's suburban estates and Canford Cliffs' period homes.

Poole FAQs
About damp survey in Poole
What does a damp survey in Poole include?+
We inspect visible patterns, take contextual moisture readings, check accessible external defects and review ventilation and construction before explaining likely causes.
How much does a damp survey cost in Poole?+
Cost depends on property size, complexity and whether a written report is required. We confirm the fee before booking.
Can I book a same-day damp survey in Poole?+
As our home base, Poole appointments are easiest to arrange, but same-day is not guaranteed. We confirm a realistic date when you enquire.
Will you provide a written report?+
The agreed scope confirms whether written findings, photographs and a remedial specification are included.
Is this an RICS survey?+
No. Our specialist inspection focuses on damp, mould, timber and remedial needs. An RICS survey has a broader scope.
Is the specialist survey really free?+
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.
