If you are considering buying a property in Sussex, or you suspect your current property has a problem with damp, timber decay, woodworm or condensation control, this shouldn’t be ignored or treated lightly because it won’t just go away, in fact it will get progressively worse and can even develop into the dreaded Dry Rot fungus (Serpula lacrymans). If this should happen, eradication it could cost thousands of pounds, another reason not to delay.

Your lender may have requested a survey of this nature which can seem a daunting prospect, particularly if you are a first time buyer, but you should be assured that this is common practice and should not discourage you from your purchase. You need to be sure that the property is free from any damp and timber defects, as it is likely to be the most significant investment you will make. If the home buyer, or building surveyor detected a problem with damp, timber decay or woodworm it is likely that he has recommended that you instruct a specialist Property Care Association (PCA) like us, because he understands you want to feel safe, knowing the company has a proven history and credentials to match.
