How I can help

Four ways to get an honest answer about your building.

Everything starts with finding the real cause — whatever kind of building you own, and whoever you are.

Core service

Damp & mould diagnosis

Moisture readings, thermal imaging and dew-point analysis to identify the true cause — condensation, penetrating or rising damp. Never tenant-blame, never guesswork.

Damp diagnosis →
The specialism

Traditional & solid-wall buildings

Pre-1919 homes assessed on how they're built to breathe — the buildings most often misdiagnosed, and most easily damaged by the wrong fix.

Traditional buildings →
Modern & traditional

Energy efficiency assessments

EPCs for modern homes, and specialist assessments for period properties — understand what your building can safely take before you insulate.

Energy efficiency →
Different search, same answer

Condensation, mould & air quality

Not sure it's "damp" exactly — just a stuffy, mouldy room? This is usually where the answer starts.

Condensation & IAQ →
Already had a survey?

Get a genuinely independent second opinion.

If you've already had a quote for damp treatment — or a solicitor has flagged a concerning report during a purchase — VCT can review it with zero incentive either way. That's the purest test of "diagnose only, nothing to sell."
