Review by Jane

"Mick initially came with a thermo imager to loo at how damp my back walls were & quickly discovered the cause. He gave me a very reasonable quote to sort the guttering & install an air vent in the external wall, we booked him in & he came with his worker to complete the job swiftly. They also tidied & cleaned everything up before they left. Highly recommended."

Review by Ben Rowland
on 18th March 2025
"We had a number of issues that Mick solved for us, including damp proofing, new air bricks, passive vents, and eventually some structural support to our rear wall. Mick was great, kept us up to date throughout with what he'd done, what he still needed to do, and with new issues he'd uncovered. For the new issues, he gave us the choice of whether we'd like to proceed with a fix or if we were happy to live with it, which gave us confidence that he was working in our best interests. We'll definitely be having him back when we move onto the next stage of renovations!"

"HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for Damp Investigation and Damp Proofing In our new house we found some damp areas. We contacted Mr R Construction, and even though it in mid December, Mr R Construction were able to come out promptly, and perfom the thorough Damp Survey just before Christmas. They gave incredibly clear and detailed feedback on findings, and what work was recommended. They then came back in January, and carried out that work. All work was to a high standard, the Mr R Construction team were fantastic and left no mess, and communication throughout the process could not have been better. I cannot recommend them enough, and I will be using them again!"
