The flagship specialism

Damp & pre-1919 traditional buildings.

The valleys are built of solid-wall stone terraces, where standard damp advice can cause real damage. We diagnose them correctly — referenced to BS 7913 — where almost no one else in the region can.

💧

Forensic damp & mould

For any property — rental or owner-occupied

Scientific diagnosis of every moisture mechanism: comparative meter readings, thermal imaging, RH/temperature and dew-point analysis. Real data, not a meter waved at a wall.

  • Multi-mechanism diagnosis, no lifestyle blame
  • HHSRS & FFHH wording for rental disputes
  • Pre-purchase reports for buyers

Solid-wall stone & period property — BS 7913

  • Solid-wall breathability & moisture-movement
  • Identifies cement render, injected DPCs & trapped damage
  • Condition of lime, stone, slate & timber fabric

Why VCT

What makes us different from everyone else.

🔍

Truly independent

We don't sell damp proofing, remediation, or any building work. The only thing we're paid for is an accurate answer — no incentive to find problems that aren't there.

🧪

Scientific, not visual

Calibrated hygrometers, moisture meters, thermal imaging and dew-point calculations. Data that tells you exactly what's happening and why.

📄

Reports that stand up

Referenced to the Renting Homes (Wales) Act, HHSRS and BS 7913. Written to forward straight to landlords, tenants, solicitors or councils.

🏛

Old-building specialist

Pre-1919 walls are designed to breathe. We diagnose them as traditional fabric, not modern cavity walls — the difference between a lasting repair and a recurring problem.

💵

No VAT, transparent

Not VAT registered — what's on the price list is what you pay. No hidden charges, and portfolio discounts for multiple properties.

🤝

One person, full accountability

You deal with Dean directly on every job. Consistent standards and full continuity on repeat visits — not a different contractor each time.

Clear, fixed pricing

No VAT. No surprises.
