Stop Rising Damp, Condensation, and Moisture Damage in Your Property
Rising Damp: Noticed tide marks, peeling wallpaper, or damp patches creeping up your walls? Rising damp happens when moisture travels upwards from the ground through brickwork. If left untreated, it can cause serious structural problems – our damp proofing specialists in Manchester provide proven treatments to stop it in its tracks.
Penetrating Damp: Cracked masonry, damaged gutters, or roof leaks often allow water to seep inside, leading to penetrating damp. Our experienced team quickly identifies the cause and provides long-term repairs and treatments to prevent mould growth and further property damage.
Condensation: Everyday activities like cooking, showering, and drying clothes can cause excess moisture indoors. Without proper ventilation, this leads to condensation, black mould, and persistent odours. We install effective solutions to boost airflow and keep Manchester homes dry, healthy, and comfortable.

Basement & Cellar Tanking Membranes: We install durable waterproof membranes in below-ground spaces, preventing water ingress and transforming damp basements or cellars into dry, usable areas.
Condensation Control Systems: Poor ventilation is one of the main causes of damp. We fit advanced airflow and ventilation units that reduce excess moisture, prevent condensation, and stop black mould from forming.


Spoke to a very polite and friendly chap called Jack on the phone who explained all about the exterior painting they do, and I decided to have a survey. The surveyor Stuart was very knowledgeable, and I’ve decided to go ahead with them. There’s too many cowboys out there, so it’s nice to see such professionalism from a company for once.
Really impressed with the guys and all their effort, the building looks like new and the guttering finishes it off nicely. cheers
Great work on a damp proof course and other bits and pieces. Arrived on time and knew exactly what to do. Leagues above the other quotes. Hope I don’t need you again but would be happy to recommend.
I was very please with the work the company has done. I had damp throughout the house so had damp-proofing including an injection of damp course. Given the extent of the job they completed the work efficiently and with minimum disruption. The workmen were always polite and very helpful. The finished work was excellent. Only time will tell if the damp problem has been sorted but the company made it they would come back to fix any issues. I have no doubt they are true to their word and would recommend them to anyone.
I spoke to Jack on the phone, who was very friendly and professional. Then James performed our survey. I found James and the experience with the Home Building & Surveying Company very refreshing, compared to others I have used in the past. They were very honest in their assessment and responses, with no hidden extras, providing very valuable advice. I am, and will in the future recommend them to anyone with damp challenges.
Excellent work, professional team, left clean and tidy. Very impressed with the work.
Had a meeting with their surveyor Andrew yesterday 15/02/2022. I have to say he was very professional. Very happy with the quote we have been given and hoping to go ahead with the work early summer. I can’t wait to see the finished product!
Immaculate, efficient service, it wasn’t a big deal for Luke and his team. Keep up the Good work. Highly recommended.
Booked in quickly and survey was much more in depth then expected. Felt very comfortable in our decision and was a notch above the rest.
Lee & Mason did the work on our property and we found them to be very polite, professional and clean ..wouldn’t hesitate to recommend
“The overall improvement is brilliant and the installation team were first class!”
Really found the team to be honest, upfront and very well trained in how to work in peoples homes. Great work. Regards J.
Good lads, grafted hard and done a good job.
The Home Building & Surveying Company were excellent in all departments – professional, reliable, well-informed. They resolved multiple residential issues with minimal fuss and would definitely use them again, though fingers crossed I shouldn’t need to!
Very happy with the work Home Building carried out at my property, very knowledge, competitive and friendly. Thanks for the hard work of your installers too they did a great job! Thanks again
Job well done, new damp course and replastering completed. Paul and Dean were excellent, tidy and kept me updated throughout.
Excellent customer service! James did a very thorough survey and identified a small breach in the tanking in the basement (not fitted by them) He was very knowledgeable and did his very best to find an ‘economical’ solution. He was very honest and I was able to conclude that at this point the cost of repair far outweighed the benefits gained. Should the situation change I would definitely use them.
Nathan and Kris were on time, professional and got the job done as quick as possible without missing a spot. Would highly recommend.
“I am very pleased with the work done from the initial survey to completion of the damp treatment. I would like to particularly commend Josh & Joe as a team they were courteous, efficient & professional in their workmanship”
Great company from initial call to completion. Gave quote with no hidden extras, started and finished on time – the finished product looks great. Kris & Nathan were stars of the show, arrived on time, worked hard all day, polite and personable, cleaned up when finished, a credit to the company.
“First class job done by two great tradesmen!”
“Thanks to Franky, Daniel & Sonny for all their hard work. They have worked beyond expectation”
