As you will see this property had an extensive rising damp issue, that was very very expensive to fix. The walls and floors were saturated because of the building defects. These building defects will only be found by a surveyor who is prepared to spend time investigating your property.
When a damp issue occurs you should seek professional advice, to ensure the correct diagnosis of the damp initially, so then the correct repair is identified to actually fix the root cause.
I often find lashed up damp repairs, from previous cheap quotes, with poor specifications.
These solutions then normally mask a problem, which then pops it's ugly head up somewhere else.
Expect to pay for a thorough survey, and expect to pay for a professional repair.
At the end of this video is link to another video that tells you the questions you need to ask a damp surveyor, prior to paying for a survey. This info is well documented in the British Standards, and should be followed by an averagely competent surveyor. Unfortunately some surveyors don't follow this guidance, despite charging you for a damp survey.
