Heritage Damp and Timber Survey
Period properties tell you what is wrong. You need someone who knows how to read it.
Heritage Damp and Timber Survey
A specialist heritage surveyor visits your home and reads the building from the ground up. This includes how it was constructed, where moisture is getting in, what previous repairs have done, and why the damp keeps returning. The findings are specific to your property, walls, and construction type.
What This Detailed Survey Covers
-
Wall construction type and original materials
-
Condition of pointing, render, and plaster finishes
-
Internal and external moisture mapping across affected areas
-
Previous damp treatments and whether they are contributing to the problem
-
Subfloor ventilation and timber condition
-
Ground levels, drainage, and external factors
What is a Heritage Damp and Timber Survey
What You Receive
A clear written report and quotation in plain English covering:

The report is written for you, not for a surveyor. Findings are explained so you can confidently make informed decisions about your period property, and there is no obligation to proceed with Bramley & Stone.
Over 1,500 Heritage Surveys Completed Across Southern England
Most general builders lack the specialist knowledge. Most survey firms diagnose and make recommendations, but never carry out the work. Bramley & Stone does both. We prioritise long-term building health over surface treatment. Always.
