We conduct thorough surveys to identify root causes and apply tailored solutions, including damp-proof courses and tanking systems. Backed by a 30-year insurance guarantee, our work ensures long-term structural integrity and prevents costly damage.
Timber treatment
Specialist timber treatment eradicates dry rot, wet rot, and woodworm infestations. Using industry-approved methods, we restore compromised structures and apply protective treatments to prevent recurrence. Our Sovereign-approved processes ensure compliance with safety standards and extend the lifespan of wooden elements in residential and commercial properties.
