Building and renovation · Damp proofing and basement waterproofing

Show the dry rooms you leave behind.

A musty smell is back in the downstairs room. Paint is bubbling and a dark patch is spreading near the floor. The owner is worried and wants answers. They search, read a few sites and look for a firm that explains the problem before it names a fix.

Before they ask

What people want to know

Do you know what is causing it?

Damp has many causes, and people know it. A page that explains the usual ones in plain words shows that you look for the cause before you offer a fix.

How disruptive will the work be?

Some damp work means taking off plaster or opening a floor. A short page on what happens each day, and how you protect the rooms, helps people feel in control.

Can a visitor see a room you have fixed?

Photos of a room before the work and after it, with a line on the problem, are the strongest thing on the page. Send them as you go and we pair them.

What happens once it is done?

People want to know what comes next. Say how long a room should take to dry, and what paperwork you hand over, if any.

Proof

Proof that wins the quote

  • The problem, then the fix

    A clear shot of the stain or mould at its worst, then the finished wall. Customers trust a firm that shows both.

  • Cellars made dry

    Photos of basements before and after, with a note on the method, show that you handle the harder jobs.

  • A sample write-up

    If you write up your surveys, a blank sample with no names shows how clearly you explain things.

  • You and your van

    A photo of you at the door, ready to start, tells a worried homeowner that a real person is coming.

Registrations and memberships

Damp and waterproofing work is sometimes backed by a registration or a membership. When you hold any, we give them a clear place on your website. Only what you tell us you hold goes on the page.

Planning ahead

Damp shows itself when the weather turns. The wet months bring calls about stains and smells. Spring is when owners plan the repairs and the redecorating that follows. A page that explains the signs helps in every season.

The Payment package

Deposits and final payments

A damp job can be small, or it can run for weeks in a cellar. Some firms take a deposit, then stage payments as the work moves on. A card machine lets a customer pay at each stage, and a payment link works when they are out.

The terms, in full

  • Card machine £25 + VAT a month, paid to our payment provider.
  • Website, domain, hosting and one business mailbox included while you keep the machine.
  • Minimum term as set by the payment provider's agreement: 3 months for a sole trader, 18 months for a limited company.
  • Extra mailboxes £25 a year.
  • Stop the machine and we offer to keep the website live at £20 a month.
Questions

Quick answers

Must the page list the kinds of damp?

No. A short guide to the common signs, in plain words, is plenty. We write it from your notes so it sounds like you.

Can people ask for a survey online?

Yes. The booking form asks where the damp is, how long it has been there and how to reach them. You begin with the facts.

Should the page promise a dry house?

No. Nobody can promise that, and a page that does can lose trust. We say what you do and what customers can expect, in your words.

Can the gallery show cellars and walls?

Yes. The gallery has a section for each, so a visitor with a wet cellar sees cellars first.

What if a partner does the plastering?

Name them on the page about your jobs. Customers like to know who plasters the wall once the damp has been dealt with.

How do new jobs reach the website?

Send photos at the end of each job, with a line about the room. We place them in the gallery so the page stays current.
