Damp, Mould and Timber Specialists Across Hampshire
Hampshire work takes us from New Forest cottages through the Southampton and Portsmouth terraces to the flint and brick of the Winchester villages. Housing density and construction change dramatically over a short distance, and so do the failure modes.

What we find in Hampshire
We cover the county with the same in-house teams rather than subcontracting, so the surveyor who diagnoses your property and the operatives who carry out the work answer to the same standard.
Southampton and Portsmouth hold large volumes of late Victorian terraces — solid nine-inch walls, suspended floors, party wall chimney breasts — alongside significant post-war and 1970s flatted stock where condensation dominates. Rural Hampshire brings timber-framed, flint and brick construction with lime finishes.
Four things that go wrong in Hampshire
Not a generic list. These are the defects our surveyors record most often at this postcode.
- 01
Condensation in flatted stock
Portsmouth and Southampton flats with sealed windows and undersized extract produce persistent black mould in bedrooms.
- 02
Solid nine-inch wall saturation
Terraces with no cavity absorb driven rain directly, showing patchy internal damp on exposed gables.
- 03
Chimney and parapet ingress
Shared stacks in long terraces are frequently the source of high-level damp in the room below.
- 04
Timber decay in older cottages
Low floors, high external ground and cement pointing lead to wet rot in bearers and joist ends.
Much of our Hampshire work involves separating landlord obligation from occupancy — measured surveys that establish, on evidence, whether a mould complaint is fabric or ventilation driven.
