BAR Preservation provide specialist surveys for the detection and diagnosis of all forms of dampness found within homes and buildings.
Our surveys identify the type of dampness, investigate the likely cause and provide clear recommendations for any remedial works required.
Our experienced surveyors hold recognised industry qualifications, including CSRT (Certificate in Remedial Treatment) and CSTDB (Certified Surveyor of Timber and Dampness in Buildings), providing the expertise required to investigate and diagnose damp and timber-related defects.
At BAR Preservation we use diagnostic equipment such as electrical and chemical moisture meters, temperature & humidity meters. We also have other equipment including optical boroscopes, thermal imaging cameras and salt analysis equipment which can all aid with accurate reporting.

A qualified surveyor will visit your property to investigate the extent and likely cause of any dampness. We can also carry out specialist investigations where damp has been highlighted during a HomeBuyer Report, building survey or as part of a property purchase.
Following the survey, we will provide a written report detailing our findings, identifying defects and setting out any recommended remedial works. Where repairs are required, we can also provide a quotation for our specialist technicians to carry out the work.
