We recently had Martin from Timberwise Leeds attend our farmhouse and barn renovation project to carry out a full survey of all the timbers, and the service was excellent from start to finish. Martin thoroughly inspected every piece of structural and non-structural timber throughout the property and was extremely knowledgeable, professional and detailed in his approach. He gave us very helpful advice and recommendations on the best treatments to preserve the original timbers, while also guiding us on how to improve their appearance so they can become real feature elements within the renovation. His knowledge and experience were clear throughout, and he took the time to explain everything in a way that was practical and easy to understand. Martin’s input has been invaluable to our project, and I would have no hesitation in recommending both him and Timberwise to anyone needing a thorough timber survey and expert preservation advice.

The level of service from Timberwise was 1st class. The surveyor Keith Defoe was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and explained the situation clearly, offering sound advice rather than trying to hard sell. This is so refreshing in today’s current climate and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Timberwise to anyone experiencing damp issues at their property.

Steve Buick was very helpful, inspecting some evidence of old woodworm and advising ways to monitor it so that treatment would only be undertaken if actually needed.

I’ve been involved in property for many years and have dealt with numerous damp companies over that time. I was recently having ongoing damp issues at a lower ground floor flat property in Stoke Newington that several other companies had looked at without ever really getting to the bottom of the problem. A surveying engineer recommended Timberwise to me as a reputable company and strongly suggested I contact them. I dealt with Jason and Keith, and I’m very glad I did. They were professional, honest in their assessment, and took the time to properly investigate the issue . Communication was excellent and they were very responsive throughout. It’s refreshing to deal with a company that is knowledgeable, transparent, and genuinely professional,id definitely recommend them.

It is also good to hear that communication throughout the process met your expectations. Your feedback will be passed on to Jason, Keith and the team. Thank you again for your recommendation.
We would be more than happy to recommend Timberwise. The surveyor, ( Kevin) was friendly & knowledgeable, recommending what was necessary to deal with our rising damp & loft mould but also (very important) - advising us what was not. The technicians Kevan & Justin were excellent - friendly, on time and thorough, leaving the rooms affected clean & tidy when they left. We were also served well by Mark, the contracts manager at Yeovil, who was always available by phone or email to advise.

Hi. I have recently had work completed at my property in Shepshed. From survey to completion I was really happy with the service.

The team at Timberwise were great throughout the whole process of installing our waterproofing system and damp proofing our house. They advocated for us as their client throughout the home-buying process and then carried out the work to a high standard once we had the keys. We’re very grateful to everyone involved, especially Ian, Andy, and Connie.

I’ve used Andrew Clark for damp surveys across a couple of my properties and couldn’t be happier with the service. The reports were extremely detailed, clear, and thorough, giving me real confidence in the findings. Communication throughout was excellent, and customer service overall was a solid 10/10. Massive thanks to Andrew Clark for such a professional and reliable service — highly recommended.

Gary was very lovely and personable with a great attention to detail. He explained the issue and what actions are requried to resolve these.

Keith came over to do an initial inspection of a damp wall in our bathroom and the wall on the other side of the bathroom by the stairs. He was friendly, knowledgeable and clearly very experienced. After he'd measured the moisture levels of various parts of the walls he came to the conclusion that we didn't need damp proofing work done at all. He explained why and it made a lot of sense to us. Keith's honesty and excellent customer service was great and basically, just plain reassuring. We're not the experts, we're dependent on contractors being honest and truthful. So whilst Keith might have left without a new job booked in, he left a great impression upon us. We would definitely recommend to anyone we know, who needs this work on their home, to give Timberwise a call. Just to add. We'd already had an inspection from one of the big damp-proof course firms. Perfectly nice people, but quoted us several thousand pounds for something that doesn't need doing.
Helpful Report
We are really pleased to hear that Keith provided a friendly, knowledgeable, and reassuring inspection and took the time to properly assess the moisture levels before reaching his conclusions. It is great to know that his clear explanations helped you understand why damp proofing work was not required and gave you confidence in the outcome. We strongly believe in giving honest, evidence based advice, even when that means recommending no work at all, so your comments are especially appreciated. The fact that Keith left you with reassurance and a positive impression means a great deal to us. Thank you for your recommendation and for trusting Timberwise.
