Independent Damp Surveyors in Brighton
At The Damp Specialist Company, we provide independent damp surveys in Brighton and surrounding areas. Our experienced damp specialists work with homeowners, landlords, buyers, and commercial clients who need clear, unbiased advice. Every damp survey is carried out by a qualified damp surveyor using evidence-based methods rather than assumptions. This approach ensures the true cause of damp is identified before any decisions are made.
Residential Damp Surveys
Our residential surveys are designed to assess common and complex damp issues found in Brighton properties, including coastal exposure and older housing stock. We offer a range of detailed inspections to suit different needs and property types. Our residential services include:
- Damp Survey (£295)
- Damp & Timber Survey (£350)
- Damp & Condensation / Mould Survey (£295)
- Flood Damage Assessments (£295)
These surveys are often used for property purchases, maintenance planning, or resolving ongoing moisture problems.
Damp & Timber Surveys Explained
A Damp and Timber Survey focuses on moisture issues alongside potential timber defects such as rot or decay. Our damp surveyor inspects structural timbers, floor voids, roof spaces, and internal joinery. This type of damp and timber survey is particularly important for period properties and buildings with suspended floors. Clear reporting helps clients understand risks and plan remedial works correctly.
Diagnostic Equipment and Survey Methods
We use professional-grade diagnostic equipment to support every damp survey in Brighton. This includes moisture meters, hygrometers, thermal imaging cameras, and endoscopic tools. These methods allow us to locate hidden moisture, assess condensation patterns, and identify defects that are not visible to the naked eye. Accurate diagnostics ensure our reports are reliable and easy to interpret.
Condensation and Mould Surveys
Condensation surveys and mould surveys are increasingly important in modern and converted properties. We assess ventilation, insulation, heating patterns, and indoor humidity levels. Our condensation survey identifies why moisture is forming and how it can be controlled long term. Mould survey findings focus on prevention strategies rather than short-term cosmetic fixes.
Roof and Drainage Surveys
External factors often play a major role in damp problems, which is why we offer additional inspection services. Our roof drone survey allows us to inspect roof coverings, flashings, and gutters safely and efficiently. We also carry out CCTV drainage surveys to identify leaks, blockages, or defects below ground. These services help link roof or drainage faults to internal damp issues.
Commercial Damp Surveys
For businesses and property managers, we provide comprehensive commercial damp survey services. Our commercial damp and restoration survey starts from £395 and is suitable for offices, retail units, and mixed-use buildings. We also offer commercial drone roof inspections and commercial CCTV drain surveys. These services support planned maintenance, acquisitions, and compliance requirements.
Insurance Surveys and Moisture Mapping
Insurance-related damp surveys are essential following leaks or flooding. Our insurance surveys include detailed moisture mapping to show the extent and spread of water damage. Flood damage assessments help insurers, contractors, and loss adjusters understand drying requirements and repair scopes. Reports are clear, methodical, and suitable for insurance documentation.
Consultancy and Specialist Services
In addition to surveys, we provide consultancy and specialist testing services. These include one-off consultations, ongoing project consultations, and salt testing where contamination is suspected. Consultancy services are often used during refurbishments or dispute resolution. Independent advice helps prevent unnecessary treatments and incorrect repairs.
