From start to finish Alan provides an excellent service. He communicates effectively via email and face to face. He diagnosed my damp problem and gave me options for treating. I decided on extractor fans and Alan fully discussed where they should be positioned and installed them with good attention to detail. The electrician discussed flow rates and cable work was as discreet as possible. Both were extremely helpful and tidy. Alan provides excellent after sales care. He also when asked was able to advise what products to use prior to decorating which was so very helpful. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alan from Hampshire Building Preservation Ltd. (Reviewed March 2023)

Alan and his team provided a great service to back up the knowledge provided on initial meeting and subsequent work.
Really happy with the outcome.
Highly recommended. (Reviewed February 2023)

A damp survey was conducted which didn't result in work being needed by the company as the cause was condensation. A comprehensive report was provided, specific to our home and the contributing factors, which included practical and affordable solutions. From the point of contact, through to receiving the report, the communication was excellent and the service was kind & friendly. (Reviewed January 2023)

Alan spent a considerable amount of time at my house, explaining the problem I had. Fortunately it was a condensation problem and not rising damp. Alan advised me on what I needed to do to help with this problem. I was sent a detailed report, reiterating what we had discussed. Alan is very knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. I would not hesitate to recommend his company. (Reviewed January 2023)

Alan was knowledgeable, courteous, helpful throughout. Although outside of his area he came to carry out the work. I was kept fully informed, given a fair quote which Alan reduced as it took him less time to complete the job as originally suggested and cleared away all rubbish. I would highly recommend. It was nice to find someone who was honest and reliable and competent. Qualities that are not always present in many instances these days. Excellent work. (Reviewed January 2023)

Alan inspired trust the first time we met him and the work he has done appears to have solved our rising damp problem which three other tradesmen failed to do. He kept dust to a minimum and cleared up well afterwards and did an excellent job of re-plastering the area affected. He was cheerful and helpful and I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone. (Reviewed December 2022)

When looking at getting our damp problem surveyed, we were incredibly impressed by Alan's attention to detail, courtesy and advice. When the quote arrived, we were very pleased to see that it was very reasonable and Alan scheduled the work at our convenience. The work was carried out very well by Alan and a colleague. At all times, Alan kept us informed of the progress and also identified some other issues and provided a very reasonable quote to carry out these additional jobs. On completion of the work everything was done to a high standard and our home was left in a clean condition. I can thoroughly recommend this business. There is not one aspect from start to completion that was not carried out to very high standards. An excellent service all round. (Reviewed December 2022)

We have already got further jobs booked in with him! I would highly recommend his company/service to anyone!!!!!! (Reviewed December 2022)

Mr Patrick carried out this work together with several other areas of similar work on the property with skill, care and promptness. The building concerned is a new extension to a Listed Building having necessarily complex links and abutments. Mr Patrick co-operated well with the Architect and the site manger to ensure the most appropriate damp control solution at each affected point.
I would not hesitate to engage Mr Patrick for future work in equally demanding conditions. (Reviewed January 2021)

Our front room needed a new damp-course around the bay and a couple of walls, which Alan finished with skimming all the way up to the picture rails. The work was carried out with very little disruption and everything was kept so clean and tidy. The finish is beautiful.

The property also required all of it's wall-ties to be replaced, which again has all been sorted without any issue. The pointing has been filled in so well and there was nothing that we needed to clean up afterwards.

Alan really knows his stuff and has been great from start to end. His advice has been so helpful and considered, and his level of workmanship and courtesy is brilliant too. It definitely felt as though the house was in safe hands! (Reviewed December 2020)

Hampshire Building Preservation LTD were able to come out to my property the very next day and arrived on time for the wall tie inspection.
When they arrived they were very informative, taking the time to explain the possible issues and why these would be causing problems.
When it came to the inspection, they drilled into the wall to identify if there was an issue and talked me through what they found.
I found them to be very informative and helpful, I would definitely use them again and would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family. (Reviewed November 2020)
