A proper survey is the first step in dealing with any damp or timber problem. At North Coast Damp Proofing Limited, we carry out damp and timber surveys across Northern Ireland and Donegal. Our surveyor has over 20 years experience in the trade, so you get a clear picture of what is wrong, what caused it, and what it will take to put right.

What is a Damp and Timber Survey?

A damp and timber survey is a detailed inspection of your property for rising damp, penetrating damp, condensation, dry rot, wet rot, and woodworm.

  • Full damp inspection covering rising damp, penetrating damp, and condensation
  • Timber checks for dry rot, wet rot, and woodworm
  • Moisture readings and identification of the source of the problem

Damp and Timber Surveys in Coleraine

A damp and timber survey is usually the first step for anyone buying, selling or maintaining a property in Coleraine, whether that's a Victorian terrace near The Diamond, a post-war semi on the edge of town, or a rental let near Ulster University. Our surveyor brings over 20 years of experience to every inspection, checking walls, floors and roof voids for rising, penetrating and condensation damp, along with dry rot, wet rot and woodworm.

You'll get a written report setting out what was found, what's causing it, and what treatment is needed, so you're not left guessing. This matters for landlords managing HMOs and student lets near the campus, buyers wanting a clear picture before completing on an older property, and owners of coastal holiday homes who want reassurance the building has been properly checked.

Frequently Asked Questions

Damp and Timber Surveys in Coleraine: Your Questions Answered

Do I need a damp and timber survey before buying a house in Coleraine?
It's strongly worth having one, particularly for Victorian, Edwardian or older solid wall properties around the town centre, since a standard mortgage valuation doesn't go into the same depth on damp or timber condition.
What does your survey actually check?
We check walls, floors, roof voids and accessible timber for rising, penetrating and condensation damp, dry rot, wet rot and woodworm, and note anything else relevant to the property's condition in those areas.
How long does a survey take?
Most residential surveys take a couple of hours on site, depending on the size of the property and how much needs checking, and you'll receive a written report afterwards.
Can landlords use your survey report for compliance purposes?
Yes, our written reports set out findings clearly enough to support a landlord's records for HMOs and student lets, and to demonstrate that damp and condensation issues have been properly assessed.
Do you survey holiday homes that are only occupied part of the year?
Yes, and it's often a good idea, since these properties can develop damp, timber and ventilation issues unnoticed between visits, particularly along the coast where weather exposure is higher.
Will the survey tell me if damp is caused by the River Bann or groundwater?
The survey will identify the type of damp present and, where groundwater or general site conditions near the river are a contributing factor, we'll explain that in the report alongside any other causes found.
What happens after the survey, do I have to use you for the work?
No, the report is yours to use as you see fit. If you'd like us to carry out any recommended treatment, we'll provide a written quote, but there's no obligation to proceed with us.
Is the surveyor who visits the same person doing the treatment work?
Our surveyor has over 20 years of experience diagnosing these issues and is closely involved throughout, so the same expertise that identifies the problem carries through to how it gets treated.
Do you survey rental properties on behalf of landlords who aren't on site?
Yes, we regularly carry out surveys for landlords who can't attend in person, arranging access through a tenant or agent and sending the written report directly to the landlord afterwards.
How much does a damp and timber survey cost?
Costs depend on the size and type of property, so call 07835 023174 with some details and we'll give you a clear price before booking anything in.
