Costs and included work
For damp treatment costs, compare the scope first: cause investigation, suitable treatment, drying and finishes. A price is useful only when supply and finishing work are clearly defined.
| Work / price basis | Starting indication | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Damp treatment costs | Price on request | Cause investigation, suitable treatment, drying and finishes |
What affects your total?
Condensation, leaks, penetrating damp and rising damp need different solutions. Establish the diagnosis and survey findings before pricing injection, coatings or drainage.
What to send with your request
Send photos of damp patches, the timing and duration of the problem, ventilation and previous work. Include your postcode, preferred schedule and the elements that must remain, so the scope can be assessed.
Describe the symptoms
Provide photographs, affected rooms, timing and any known leaks or previous repairs. Note whether the problem changes with weather, heating or use of the room.
Match the method to the cause
Ventilation improvements, leak repairs, exterior repairs and specialist damp treatments solve different problems. A proposal should explain why its method is appropriate for the evidence found.
Check the complete cost
Include investigation, preparation, treatment, access and replacement of damaged finishes. Drying and monitoring may affect when the room can be redecorated or used normally.
Agree measurable follow-up
Ask how the result will be assessed and what maintenance or further work is expected. Written scope and conditions are more useful than an unsupported promise that every damp problem will disappear permanently.
