Terribly disingenuous, do not use! We asked London property preservation to sort a bit of damp in our lower ground in 2020. I did not want much upheaval as I had tenants in the house. They promised us all would be sorted with little disturbance and they would guarantee the work. I got a quote, accepted it (not cheap, but o they offered a guarantee). Once they arrive on site they told me there were additional works. They showed a video, again, we agreed and paid, no questions asked. Water started coming in again… it took ages for them to answer emails (the server was apparently down), I then had to pay for them to look at the damage and now they are coming up with every excuse in the book to wiggle out of repairs. It clearly is the area they repaired, the same problem as before. I paid, I kept all reports and videos. These are not honest trades men. Don’t use them.

I noticed a damp patch on my wall and contacted a few local damp companies to come and carry out a quote. I chose to go with London Property Preservations recommendations due to their fair price and above average customer service, they answered any and all questions and concerns I had. The works were done within schedule & the operatives were clean, tidy and polite. I’ll definitely use them and recommend them to others.

We used LPP to survey and rectify a damp problem in one of our rental properties that we own in Purley. The surveyor came out and met us at the property. He looked at the problem, proposed a remedy and quoted a good price which was much more reasonable compared to other quotes we had. They also liaised directly with our tenants as well as keeping us informed at all times. A convenient date for the work to be completed was arranged. LPP were on punctual and polite, completed the work within the agreed timeframe and left the property clean and tidy. I was extremely impressed and happy as were our tenants. Thanks to all at LLP great job!!! would never go anywhere else and would recommend to anyone.

We used LPP to survey and rectify a damp problem in a flat we own in South Croydon. The surveyor came out and met me there. He looked at the problem, proposed a remedy and quoted (which was very reasonable compared to others). LLP liaised with the tenants of the property as well as myself and arranged a date for the work to be completed. On the date of works they turned up on time, completed the work to be done and cleared up after themselves. I was extremely happy as were my tenants. Thanks LLP and the team! I wouldn’t use anyone else now…. Thanks again.

Basements are more prone to receiving dampness than other areas in a home, and therefore, basement waterproofing is a popular process for the team here. Rejuvenate your basement into a usable or living space by damp proofing.
Condensation is one of the biggest causes of dampness in UK homes, which is why condensation control solutions are crucial if your home is struggling with the correct levels of ventilation.

Why Basement Tanking Is Important

Basement tanking is crucial for safeguarding your property against water damage and preserving its structural integrity. Without proper waterproofing, basements are susceptible to water infiltration, leading to mold growth, rotting, and compromised building materials. By implementing basement tanking, you create an impermeable barrier that prevents water from seeping through walls and floors, protecting your foundation and ensuring a dry and safe living space. This not only enhances the value of your property but also provides the opportunity to convert your basement into usable areas, such as bedrooms or home offices, increasing the overall square footage of your home.

Furthermore, basement tanking prevents health hazards associated with damp and humid environments, as it discourages mold and mildew growth. It also safeguards your valuable belongings stored in the basement, reducing the risk of water damage and potential loss. Additionally, basement tanking can save you from costly repairs and renovations in the long run, making it a cost-effective investment. Overall, basement tanking is a vital aspect of property maintenance, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and resilient living space for you and your family.

Signs Your Property May Need Basement Tanking Solutions

Recognising signs that indicate the need for basement tanking solutions is crucial for safeguarding your property from water damage. If you notice damp or wet walls, or musty odors, on the basement walls, it could be an indication of water infiltration. Cracks in walls or floors, puddles or standing water, and peeling paint or wallpaper are additional red flags that your basement may require waterproofing. Rust or corrosion on metal fixtures and visible mold growth are also signs of excessive moisture and a potential need for basement tanking.

Addressing these issues promptly is essential to prevent further damage and maintain the structural integrity of your property. Hiring a professional basement tanking service can help identify the source of the problem and provide effective waterproofing solutions tailored to your specific needs. By taking early action, you can protect your property from water-related problems, enhance its value, and ensure a dry and secure living environment for years to come.
