I contacted Tyrone after being recommended and so very pleased we did. He was able to visit the property we were hoping to purchase within a couple of days which was excellent.
A general survey had been carried out on the property which identified significant damp issues (although did recommend getting a specialist to survey), plus a damp proofing company had visited and quoted thousands to rectify the damp issues.
Tyrone contacted me directly after surveying the property and went through his findings over the phone before sending the full report within 24 hours.
Tyrone reassured us that the property had no damp and because it had been empty for some time was cold and had a little condensation...
He saved us from spending thousands unnecessarily plus the time and mess it would have created.
I would always contact a specialist in future and I would highly recommend Tyrone from TMF if you have any concerns about damp in your property.
Excellent service and communication from start to finish.
Thank you so much Tyrone 😊

Tyrone provides a very professional service. He is knowledgeable and addressed all our concerns. The report was available the next day. The recommendations he has made have the potential to save us thousands of pounds and a lot of disruption. I would recommend this survey prior to commencing works.

Needed a quick turnaround for a damp and timber survey of a house I’m purchasing. Tyrone responded very quickly and sorted out a survey and report in no time! I also really appreciated the follow-up phone call to go through some of the points in his report and he gladly answered any questions I had. I would highly recommend!

I recently moved into an old property with exposed high timber beams. The RICS building survey had recommended getting a quote for woodworm treatment, which I hadn’t acted upon before purchase. However, having spotting a visible area of internal lintel where the wood had been eaten/ rotted away (not highlighted by the building surveyor), I did contact a couple of damp surveyors for advice/ quotes for surveys.
One sucked through his teeth and, without viewing, said I’d have to sand blast the beams back to bare wood to treat or drill and inject woodworm treatment with no guarantee of success.
Conversely, Tyrone has a very calming and reassuring manner! He was able to carry out an inspection within 48 hours. He was generous with his time on the day, listening to my concerns and explaining things in plain English. I received the report the following day.
He confirmed there is no evidence of current woodworm infestation, the timbers are dry, and there is no need or benefit for precautionary (expensive, not to mention toxic) timber treatment. Hooray!!
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his independent and impartial advice and services.

Contacted Tyrone yesterday, and he had availability the next day. The report is clear to understand and very professional. Also Tyrone is available for me to contact should I have any questions about the report and explained things clearly over the phone. Will definitely use again and recommend to others.

I really appreciated Tyrone's response to our request for a damp and timber survey - he got back to us quickly, was polite and informative in his communications, and arranged the survey in very good time. The survey was delivered the day after the survey, and I found this to be comprehensive, clear and helpful. What I valued the most was Tyrone giving me a phone call to discuss the survey and share his thoughts, making the process of buying a house a more human one. Thank you!

My enquiry email was responded to within a few hours and Tyrone was extremely helpful, explained everything to me in terms a lay person could understand and managed to fit the survey in the following morning. He rang me on the afternoon of the survey to explain his findings before following up with a detailed report and the opportunity to contact him should I need to ask further questions after reading it. I wouldn't hesitate to use his service again should the need arise and would definitely recommend him to others.

TMF provided us with a very professional service and Tyrone was extremely helpful in assisting at very short notice.
The final report was issued on the date agreed and was of good quality, we would certainly have no hesitation in using their services in future should the need arise.

After noticing damp at my property I was really stuck with what to do next. I needed to know the source of the moisture before seeking out a builder and plaster to fix the issue. I didnt want to waste my money by getting the work done for the problem to come back the same as before.
I employed TMF independent damp specialist to access the problem for me. What a great service I recieved. I dealt with Tyrone who was professional, on time and provided me with a detailed diagnosis both verbally and in writting. The diagnosis was provided very quickly with evidence of moisture readings and calculations. I was also provided with detailed recomendation to resolve the damp issue.
I cant explain how refreshing it was to do business with a company that came when they said they would and completed the job in a professional and timely manner.
